Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the timing for declaring debit notes. Generally, a debit note issued in March but received by the party in April should be accounted for in the April return. It also addresses the scenario of receiving a debit note for damaged goods, explaining that this typically constitutes a sale return, and a credit note can be issued for deficiency in supply under Section 34 of the CGST Act.
Debit note date is of march, but the party give in April. 1. so can we show in April return or not? 2. party gave a debit note because he received broken bottles( so we need to get back these bottles or not).
You as the supplier would be required to raise a credit note and disclose the same in GSTR 3B and 1. It is suggested to get back the goods however it is not necessary to get back the goods as it could be said that credit note is issued for deficiency in supply of goods.
