GST - ( MISTAKE COMMITTED WHILE FILING GSTR- 3B FOR THE MONTH JULY 2017 )

A Trader Mr.X had filed his GSTR-1 showing correct details consisting of IGST, CGST AND SGST liabilities. But while filing his GSTR-3B he made a mistake at table 3.1(a) by adding the IGST liability in equal portions to CGST & SGST. The liabilities were then discharged by the availing the ITC Balance. As a consequence of which while filing GSTR-9C there is a balance of IGST payable in table no.9 of GSTR-9C (diff b/w taxes paid as per GSTR-9 and as per books of account). Please advise about the treatment of the same in GSTR-9C.

Quick Summary
A trader mistakenly allocated IGST liability to CGST and SGST in their July 2017 GSTR-3B filing, discharging it using ITC. This has resulted in an IGST payable balance in their GSTR-9C. The discussion explores potential solutions, including referencing a Kerala High Court judgment allowing interchangeable tax payments, though practical remedies may be limited due to elapsed time for refund claims.

Practically, no solution. since you can't even go for filing of refund claim since two years has already lapsed. There is Kerala high court judgement that such taxpayments can be adjusted when paid interchangeably and mistakenly.
Onely one solution for the issue is to file annual return

Thank you for response sir, but in this case Annual return was filed.

thank you for your response. can you please elaborate the procedure of it.
