Dear Professionals,

Please guide for the below case study.

For the FY 2018-19, my Client's Turnover as per GSTR-3B & Books is 10 Lacs(Assumed).He is involved only in interstate sale of goods.The Turnover as per the E-Way bills generated is coming to 11 Lacs.(Extra way Bill generated twice for same invoice by the client)

In April-19 he received a notice(DRC-01) from the department u/s 73 for payment of differences of output tax coming as per returns and way bill.

The notice had a demand of CGST and SGST on differential of 1 lacs instead of IGST. The same was also paid by the client under the wrong head SGST and CGST.

Now the point is that the notice amount has been paid under the wrong head and the extra way bill was also generated by mistake.

How to proceed in above case.

First of all , need not have to pay on twice generation of E-way bill on same Invoice.
Now when the demand is raised to deposit Under head CGST/SGST & the same has been deposited by you then what is the problem ????, Now Setoff the same by filing DRC 03

Yes .... There is kerala High Court judgement in this regard , DTD 14/11/2019 While noting that it sees no difficulty for the tax authorities to allow the petitioner’s request and get the amount transferred from the head ‘S-GST’ to ‘I-GST’, the court said it is inequitable for the authorities to let the petitioner suffer. The court made these observations while disposing of a matter involving Saji S of Adithya and Ambadi Traders, Ranjith R of Ranjith Roadlines, and the State GST authorities.
