Quick Summary
This discussion addresses a Goods and Services Tax (GST) mismatch between GSTR1 and GSTR3B for the financial year 2017-18. The user reported higher taxable supplies and tax paid in GSTR3B compared to GSTR1 for most months, except July 2017 where GSTR3B was lower. Despite declaring actual supplies matching GSTR1 in GSTR9, the tax authority is demanding payment for the July 2017 shortfall with interest. The query seeks clarification on whether excess GST paid in subsequent months can be used to offset this July shortfall, or if interest must be paid separately.

Payment can be made through drc03 by selecting relevant month with interest.
Sir is there any provision to adjust the excess paid gst by debit in electonic credit ledger for the month of August 17 with the short paid liability of July 17.
You should simply look at the full period i.e. From July to March, if there is any amount payable in totality, than only you are required to deposit the tax.

As you mentioned in 2017-18 overall excess tax deposited in 3B, that simply mean you deposit tax liability of July 3B in next upcoming months for some bills. So accordingly you don't have to pay any tax amounts at the time of GSTR_9, however you can deposit interest for period from July to date of deposit in next upcoming month return.
