Can the gst paid under wrong heads be corrected in GSTR 9? For e.g. IGST of 9000 was supposed to be paid but Rs. 4500 of CGST and SGST was paid in GSTR 3b. But the GSTR1 data is correctly uploaded. So while filling GSTR 9 although the aggregate tax liability is same. The individual heads total differ in GSTR1 and GSTR 3b.

Quick Summary

This discussion addresses how to rectify errors where GST was paid under incorrect heads, such as paying CGST/SGST instead of IGST, in GSTR-3B. While GSTR-1 data might be correct, discrepancies arise when filing GSTR-9. Potential solutions include paying the correct tax and claiming a refund via RFD-01, or adjusting future liabilities. The advice suggests filing GSTR-9 based on actual book records, as direct edits to auto-populated values are not possible.

Dear Shetty,

There are two ways-

1st is legal way - Pay IGST of Rs. 9000/- and claim Rs. 4500/- each for CGST & SGST.

another way is "Jugaad" (but not Illegal) - Adjust it from next month's Liabilities.

The CGST& SGST has to be claimed through RFD-01 and IGST to be paid from DRC 03?

Is it correct? and while claiming refund what supporting documents has to be attached?

There is no balance in cash ledger. Only credit ledger.

I'm asking for the annual returns i.e GSTR 9 of 2017-18.

Is it enough if I just manually correct the heads under Tax payable column in table 9 of GSTR 9 ? The table 4 has correct values.

I'm replied / asking continuity of 2nd question as refund...

As Your 1st question...

We can't adjust or edit for autopopulated values. File Your annual return as per Your actual books/transactions.
