If each branch has a separate GST registration, then for GST compliance purposes, you will need to maintain separate records for each GSTIN. This effectively means you'll need to be able to generate branch-wise data for:
Outward Supplies (Sales): To file GSTR-1 for each GSTIN.
Inward Supplies (Purchases) and Input Tax Credit (ITC): To reconcile and claim ITC for each GSTIN, which is reflected in GSTR-3B.
Annual Return (GSTR-9) and Reconciliation Statement (GSTR-9C): If your aggregate turnover (PAN-India) exceeds the threshold, you'll need to file GSTR-9 for each GSTIN separately. GSTR-9C, which requires reconciliation with audited financial statements, would also be applicable for each separate GSTIN if its turnover meets the threshold. While the ultimate reconciliation for GSTR-9C is often done at a PAN-India level with the consolidated financial statements, the underlying data must be available at the GSTIN level.
