Can the itc of earlier month be claimed in subsequent months

If the recipient wants to claim ITC regarding a purchase made in April'18 (Invoice dated 9/4/18) in the GSTR-3B of any subsequent month (as he forgot to take such credit in GSTR 3B of April), then-

> Whether GSTR 3B for April'18 can be amended to include such input tax?

> If not, then whether it is possible claim such credit in the subsequent months' return?

> If yes, then whether will it be alright to take credit on the basis of such invoice (dated 9/4/18) or the recipient has to ask the supplier to alter the invoice date?

* No way for revise / changes / Amendment in GSTR 3B return...

** Yes... He can claim the ITC in next GSTR 3B return...

***No need to alter the invoice date. You ll account the invoice in April month in your books of accounts and C/f the ITC to May month...

So,
Simple...


GOOD LUCK
Thank you so much...But wanted to know how to carry forward the same??

If You have 10 invoices in April 18 and Value is Rs. 1000 x 10 = 10000 @ 18% = 1800 (GST). Total Rs. 11800.

You missed one Invoice like Rs. 1000 + 180 = 1180... Now.,

You will enter the all invoices in April-18 in Your books of Accounts and Tax is Rs. 1800. But, You availed only Rs. 1620. Balance ITC 180 is in Your Hand. It's not availed by You bcoz You missing the Tax.

The Balance ITC Rs. 180 is C/fd to Next month... That's all

You are most welcome Dear...
