Quick Summary
Invoice raised by one firm but e-way bill generated by another should not be force-matched. Report sale and pay GST in correct firm's returns. For wrong firm, don't report sale-intimate GST officer to nullify e-way bill as clerical error.

You have to apply to the concerned authority and return the eway bill citing valid reasons. 

The range may decided upon circumstances of the case.

Do not try to match your returns to the mistake. You must match your returns to the actual invoice.

  • For Company A (Your Firm): File GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B normally. Include the invoice details here. You must pay the tax liability from this company because the invoice belongs to it. Ignore the fact that the E-way bill is missing.

  • For Company B (Father's Firm): Do NOT enter this transaction in GSTR-1. Even though an E-way bill exists on this GSTIN, there was no actual supply. If you enter it here to "match" the E-way bill, you will be forced to pay tax on a sale that never happened.

The GST system will eventually flag a discrepancy for Company B: "E-way bill generated but no sales reported in GSTR-1."

  • To resolve this, Company B should draft a Letter of Intimation (see draft below) to the Jurisdictional GST Officer (Range Superintendent).

  • Submit this letter formally to put the error on record. This proves you are not hiding a transaction, but merely made a clerical error.

 

Subject: Intimation regarding accidental generation of E-way Bill on wrong GSTIN due to clerical error.

To, The Jurisdictional Superintendent, [Ward/Circle Details]

Dear Sir/Ma’am,

Ref: E-way Bill No: [Wrong E-way Bill No] dated [Date]

We wish to voluntarily intimate a clerical error occurred in our E-way bill generation.

  1. We operate two proprietorship firms: [Company A Name] (GSTIN A) and [Company B Name] (GSTIN B).

  2. An invoice (No. [Invoice No]) was correctly raised by [Company A].

  3. However, due to a clerical oversight, the E-way bill for this consignment was generated from the login of [Company B] (GSTIN B).

  4. We clarify that the actual supply and tax liability belong to [Company A]. This transaction will be duly reported in the GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B of [Company A] and tax will be paid there.

  5. We request you to treat the E-way bill generated on [Company B] as null/void and condone the discrepancy between E-way bill data and GSTR-1 for this tax period.

Yours Faithfully, [Name & Signature]
