This discussion addresses a query regarding GST Rule 36(4) where the input tax credit (ITC) reversal for April-August exceeds the ITC available for September. The consensus is that the excess reversal of Rs. 5,000 will be reflected as a credit reversal in Part 4B(1) of the GSTR 3B. This amount can be adjusted against the opening balance in your ITC ledger. If no opening balance exists, you cannot utilise more credit than availed and will need to pay the difference in cash, carrying forward the remaining reversal to subsequent months.

Suppose input available for the month of Sep is Rs.30000 and input to be reversed for the period APr-Aug2020 is Rs.35000 then how this negative 5000 would be shown in return?

You can show ITC utilised more than the ITC availed. There is no issue.Opening balance is in your ITC ledger,it will reduce 5000 from there.

You can reverse in this month to the extent of available ITC balance.Balance reversal you can do in the month 3B return when you will take fresh ITC in October/November.
