Invoice Query

Hi Team

i have query that we have raised multiple invoices (17 invoice) to our client in may 2019 and gst also paid for same to govt at the same time. also those invoices uploaded in gstr1 and gst3b filed within the due date. due to some clerical mistake in invoice client has not accepted the invoice but they have paid the invoice amount after deduction of applicable tds for (13 invoices).

for those 17 invoices, client is asking to submit current date invoice.

if we will issue current date invoice to our client. what will be the consequences for gst paid for these invoice in may 2019. can we raise credit note for same and issue fresh invoice? is there will be any legal compliance for penalty kind of ?

Quick Summary
A client has rejected 17 invoices from May 2019 due to clerical errors, despite the GST being paid and returns filed. The client now requests invoices dated the current date. The discussion explores the consequences of issuing new invoices, the possibility of raising credit notes for the old ones, and potential legal or compliance issues. It highlights that issuing invoices with a current date for past services is not permissible, but a credit note followed by a fresh invoice is a potential solution, though amendments to previous filings might be necessary.

No, you can not issue current date invoice in any case

Services / goods already supplied with Invoices and GST also paid by you

How can you issue current date invoices?
You can issue credit note and issue fresh invoice
@ Pankaj

How can issue current date invoices without materials / services supplied

Please clarify
@ Jatinder kumar
please let me know what is the solution for this?
client is telling that we have closed our books of account so unable to accept may 2019 invoices.

@ Jatinder

BY issuing CN we will treat them as Sales Return.

After that new sale new invoice.

@ pankaj
can we raise credit note in this month for old invoices and issue fresh invoice.
Yes agreed with Vishesh Time has elapsed for 19-20
Why client not accept May, 2019 invoices ?
Due to stage amount was wrong, this is the reason they are not accounted our invoice

One alternative is 

You ask the buyer to give you a penalty invoice and you take ITC of that invoice (in current date)

Then you raise fresh invoice

 

 

If. we raise credit note on 30th sep what are problems will come

is this loss to company?
September Month GSTR 1 filed by you or not
September month GSTR1 filed already.
we have to do amendment now
Yes, you can in the month of October, 2020 return due to loopholes in GST return systems

GSTR 1 data you can amend but technically you can not do
