Gstr7 - incorrect details uploaded by gram panchayat & also accepted by the deductee

07 September 2019  

A Gram Panchayat had made two similar payments to a contractor on the same date and deducted TDS @ 2% (1% each CGST & SGST), i.e. 3,29,205/- on 08/05/2019 and deducted 3,292/- CGST & 3,292/- SGST each.

However for May 2019 the GSTR7 return was erroneously filled with a single payment detail. This detail was also incorrectly accepted by the deductee and he too has filed his return.

As the error was noticed - while filing GSTR7 for the month of August 2019, we tried to use the amend details option - however no amendment is being allowed and the message deductee has accepted, taken action and return filed.

Under the circumstance how do we upload the details for the second payment for May 2019? Kindly guide.

An update - I called GST Helpdesk and they asked me to file the details in the current month (August return), hope i am taking the right option.
