Invoice Cancellation / Deletion on the same moth before filing GST 1R or GST 3B

In the month of Feb, an invoice #8 is created by mistake, but it is not issued to the client. Also, next invoices #9 & #10 are created and sale is completed.

GST 1R  & GST3B is not filed yet. How to delete or cancel the invoice #8. Is it mandatory to create a credit note or can i just delete it as such?

Quick Summary
If you've mistakenly created an invoice before filing your GST returns and haven't issued it to the client, you can simply cancel it. It's not mandatory to issue a credit note in this scenario. You should document the cancellation by printing the invoice and marking it as cancelled before deleting it from your system. Remember to report the cancelled invoice number in the document summary section of your GSTR 1 return.

Take the printout for cancel Invoice & mark it as cancelled & can delete the invoice from system.

In this case it's not mandatory to issue Credit Note.
