ITC claimed under incorrect head and annual return filed

Say i have ITC as:
CGST- 1000
SGST- 1000
This was mistakenly claimed as IGST 2000 and the annual return for the year is also filed. What should be done?

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses a common GST issue where Input Tax Credit (ITC) was claimed under the wrong head (e.g., IGST instead of CGST/SGST) and the annual return has already been filed. The recommended solution is to file Form DRC-03 to correct the error and set off the wrongly claimed ITC using either cash or credit ledger. It's important to note that GSTR-3B and GSTR-9 cannot be amended, making DRC-03 the primary method for rectification.

Does that IGST claimed
Yes it is claimed
File DRC 03 & set-off from cash or credit ledger
Then you have to file DCR 03 as per Pankaj sir said

You cannot amend GSTR-3B or GSTR-9. Nothing can be done now
