GST Offline tool is for GSTR-1 and not for GSTR-2. The json file is not opening in ms excel/word.

NO.you open GST offline tool it shows three columns, one of that was used for opening json file (open download file)
open with offline utility. with second one icon.
open with offline utility. with second one icon.

The second icon - "Open Downloaded Return file from GST Portal" opens only zip file. First create zip file of json file and then open with offline utility.
