Clarification on Rectification of RCM Invoices in GSTR-4 Return

805 views 2 replies

Dear Sir/Madam,

With reference to the above subject, I am a composite dealer. In my quarterly return, I did not mention the RCM invoices, as I had not received any invoices from the transporter at that time.

Now, in my GSTR-4 return, the RCM invoices are showing. I would like to know how I can rectify this mistake, since the invoices were not shown in the respective quarterly return.

Is there any possible way to pay the RCM amount along with the Annual Return? Also, is there any penalty or fine for not filing the RCM in the quarterly return?

I request your kind guidance in this matter

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how composite dealers can rectify the omission of RCM invoices from their quarterly returns. You can pay the outstanding tax liability along with applicable interest when filing your annual GSTR-4 return. While there might be a penalty for delayed reporting, paying the tax and interest promptly in the annual return could lead to a waiver.

Rectifying the Mistake As a composite dealer, you can rectify the mistake of not reporting RCM invoices in your quarterly return by paying the tax liability along with interest in your annual return (GSTR-4).

 Steps to Rectify

1. *Calculate Tax Liability*: Calculate the tax liability on the RCM invoices that were not reported in the quarterly return. 

2. *Pay Tax and Interest*: Pay the tax liability along with interest in your annual return (GSTR-4). 3. 

*File GSTR-4*: File your annual return (GSTR-4) and report the RCM invoices in the return. Paying RCM Amount with Annual Return You can pay the RCM amount along with the annual return (GSTR-4).

 However, you will need to pay interest on the delayed payment of tax.

 Penalty or Fine There might be a penalty or fine for not filing the RCM in the quarterly return.

The penalty can be up to 10% of the tax amount or ₹10,000, whichever is higher. 

However, if you pay the tax liability along with interest in your annual return, the penalty might be waived. Conclusion To rectify the mistake: - 

*Calculate Tax Liability*: Calculate the tax liability on the RCM invoices. -

 *Pay Tax and Interest*: Pay the tax liability along with interest in your annual return (GSTR-4). -

 *File GSTR-4*: File your annual return (GSTR-4) and report the RCM invoices in the return [1].

Thank  You sir
