Mistake in e-invoice identified after 24 hours
This query is : Resolved

Hi,
I want to know the practical solution for correcting mistake in e-invoice identified after 24 hours. While generating e-invoice GSTIN of the customer was wrongly mentioned but original invoice was raised with correct GSTIN. In GSTR 1 e-invoice auto-populated with wrong GSTIN. If I amend this in GSTR 1, Return will be correct but I cannot give e-invoice to the customer which in my view is as same as not generating e-invoice. How can I correct this mistake and give e-invoice to the customer and make necessary entries in books of account?

An IRN cannot be cancelled after 24 hours or edited on the IRP, so issue a credit note (with its own IRN) against the wrong-GSTIN invoice and raise a fresh e-invoice to the correct GSTIN; both auto-flow to GSTR-1, the customer gets ITC from the new invoice, and in books you simply reverse the old sale and book the new one.
