Once a GSTR-3B return is submitted, it cannot be directly edited. However, the government has introduced a helpful feature called “Reset GSTR 3B”.

Click on “Prepare Online.” Since you’ve already submitted the return, the option to “Reset GSTR 3B” will be activated. Confirm the reset by clicking “Yes” and “OK.” Keep in mind that this reset option can be used only once before filing the GSTR-3B. After resetting, you can make changes to the return and submit it again. Note that the details provided in the return won’t change; only
