pr br (319 Points)

12 September 2018

I am in consultant business and myself have been filing my GSTR1 and 3B since GST launched in India.

in FY 2017-18 , I filed GST for Nov 2017 as follows

taxable amount: 100000
gst :18%
invoice total : 118000
gst paid : 18000

But the client has filed different amount as follows

taxable amount : 103000
gst : 18%
invoice should be : 103000+18540

so difference = 540

they want me to adjust this amount for FY 2017-18 . sept 15th is the last date of last year annual filling for them.

can i raise an invoice of difference amount (540) this month, anyone please help me , I can take your paid service as well . its urgent .

Issue a debit note against the said invoice for the difference.

Add the liability in this month’s GSTR-3B.

Declare the debit note in GSTR-1 against the said invoice.

In case of your client: For an invoice of FY 2017-18, ITC can be taken upto 20.10.2018 (September month return of the following F.Y. to which the invoice pertains) or 31.12.2018 (date of filing of annual return), whichever is earlier [Ref. 16(4)-CGST].

Also refer to Circular No. 26/2017, dt. 29.12.2017

Table 9A, available but Debit Note is preferred.

Actually, first they paid me 100,000 I make the invoice of that amount and paid GST . but after they added the rest amount of 3000. so this 3000 extra increasing my tax liability for GST. so how do I need to raise a debit not of 3000 in Aug 2018 GSTR -1 . can I ask you to follow me , so that I can send you a PM ?

If it's urgent then You can try to the following way :

Go to Amend Your previous Invoice as per Your required Value.
Pay the short amount in Your current GSTR 3B with interest.

After that send to the Changed invoice to Your client.

You can't touch any of the GST returns in previous filed. Also You will make any changes or Debit note then You ll file in Current return. It's not directly to 17-18...

But,
If You are amend the Particular details in Your next GSTR 1 return then It will be reflected as Your invoice...
May be You can do it for Your customers satisfy.

The client specifically mentioned "The balance amount should be adjusted for last financial year 2017-2018 "

That confuse me . Is making debit note of balance taxable amount will do it or not ?
