How to carry forward ITC in tally after splitting the company

Hello,

We have split company 2019-20 after finalising the balance sheet of that particular year.

For March 2020 we have additional input which was credited after filing returns. Return was filed in Apr-20. If I keep opening balance of this amount in respective ledger (Input CGST and Input SGST) it is showing as difference in opening balances of the same amount.

If I keep respective actual values of Input and output ledger still it is showing difference in opening balnce in Balance sheet of 20-21. 

How do I resolve this difference in opening balance?

Thanks in Advance.

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses an issue with carrying forward Input Tax Credit (ITC) in Tally after a company split. The user is experiencing differences in opening balances for the new financial year (2020-21) due to additional ITC credited after the previous year's (2019-20) balance sheet finalisation and returns filing. The core problem lies in correctly reflecting this post-finalisation ITC as an opening balance in Tally, which currently causes discrepancies on the balance sheet.

Can u pls tell that this ITC as on 31.3.20 is as per books n taken in opening bal on. 1.4.20 and then u had set off the liability outstanding on 31.3.20 for march 20 month return in April month only?
During 2019-20
April to Sept has alredy been sett off by u on sept month.
Oct to March has already been sett off by sett off by sept 2020.
Additional itc crdited in filing April 2020.
so, what problem?

Yes. After passing journal entry for Set off liability of March 20 we should have debit balance in SGST and CGST ledger which will be carried forward in month of April 20. When this balance was taken as opening balance it is showing the same amount at difference.

My issue is doing entry in Tally or difference in opening balance that is being shown in tally. Company files monthly returns. So has to Pay liability or take credit from month to month.
