Omitted sales in GSTR-1 for past months can be corrected, and the path depends on how old the period is.
For June-August 2025 (which falls in FY 2025-26):
The amendment window in GSTR-1 for a supply period runs until the EARLIER of: (a) the October GSTR-1 of the NEXT financial year, or (b) the date of filing the annual return (GSTR-9). For FY 2025-26, GSTR-9 is typically due December 31, 2026. So you still have time to amend your GSTR-1 for those months.
How to amend:
1. File GSTR-1A or the amendment table in the relevant monthly GSTR-1. Go to the GST portal, open the GSTR-1 for the return period, and use Table 9 (amendments to B2B invoices) or Table 10 (B2C large invoice amendments) to add the omitted invoices.
2. After the amended GSTR-1 is filed, the output tax liability will reflect in your GSTR-3B for the current period. You pay the differential tax plus 18% interest from the original due date.
3. The late-filed sales do NOT automatically trigger a notice if done proactively, but the mismatch between GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B for those months may have already generated a GSTR-2A/2B mismatch query from the officer.
Interest calculation: 18% per annum from the original due date of the return for that period (e.g., for June 2025 GSTR-3B, due July 20 2025). Calculate interest from that date to the date you now pay the differential tax.
