How to revise a filed supply? Debit/ Credit note or revising the supply

After generating e-way bill for a interstate supply found the gst rate was wrong. Collected 5percent instead of 18 percent. How to rectify the error? If the supply bill is reissued with the correct IGST rate, it would be different from the e-way bill particulars already filed. Would a debit note with differential 13 percent IGST alone suffice to correct the mistake? If so the receiver of the supply could avail the input this month itself. Or is it right to file the GSTR1 with the incorrect 5 percent in this month and revise it be next month applying 18 percent? Experts kindly advice.

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses how to correct an error where the wrong GST rate was applied to an interstate supply, resulting in an e-way bill mismatch. The primary question is whether to issue a debit note for the differential IGST or to revise the original invoice. Experts suggest that issuing a debit note for the difference is a viable option, allowing the recipient to claim input tax credit promptly. Alternatively, amending the invoice in the next return with applicable interest is also a possibility.

You can issue both the invoice and the debit note in the same month. 

Yes either you can issue debit note for 13 percent or may amend the invoice in next return with interest.

Debit note of differential 13 percent IGST as the total value with zero in the 18 percent value field and differential 13 percent IGST amount in the 18 percent tax field. Am I right? Thank you.

Will go for the first option so that the supplier would receive the IPT this month itself.
