Input in 2a but not in 2b

This discussion addresses a common GST issue where input tax credit (ITC) appears in GSTR-2A but not in GSTR-2B, leading to notices from tax officers. The advice provided suggests that if you have a valid tax invoice, have paid for the goods/services, received the materials, and the supplier has paid GST and updated their GSTR-1, your ITC claim is likely valid. The suggested response is to mention the specific month in which the supplier uploaded the relevant details in their GSTR-1.
