Quick Summary
A user misplaced purchase bills for FY 2020-21 and claimed pending Input Tax Credit (ITC) in March 2021 based on duplicate invoices. Although the ITC was genuine and the year-end figures match, the month-wise entry in the books doesn't align with the credit ledger. The discussion provides reassurance that this shouldn't be a major issue, suggesting a reconciliation statement to address the mismatch and offering an accounting technique to maintain alignment.

It will not be a problem because the ITC is genuine. Preparing a reconciliation statement (month-wise) should solve the problem of mismatch.

No there is no problem

There is a better solution for this problem. book the input gst on actual date of invoice by creating a new ledger say "Unclaimed ITC A/c" and transfer the balance of this ledger in Input GST A/c in March.
Sir
in which group I create the ledger Unclaimed ITC
In the same group in which Input GST ledger has been grouped. in my opinion duties and taxes. the ledger balance will become 0 at the end in your case. so it will not affect ur account even if u group in any other head.
Thank you Sir,
Ur welcome
