RCM ITC reported in Table 4(4) instead of 4(3) in Eligible ITC Table

Dear Experts

Please guide me on this difficult query:

In Q3 of last year GSTR3B in Eligible ITC Table 4, RCM amount which was paid but instead of reporting it in Inward supplies liable to reverse charge – 4(3),  it was wrongly reported in Inward supplies from ISD 4(4).

How to rectify it?

Due to this wrong reporting in ITC Table, this amount appears in RCM liability/ITC statement as unutilized RCM and is shown as balance available, whereas it was utilized but reported in 4(4) instead of 4(3) as explained above.

Please guide how to rectify it.

Note: in outward supply table 3.1, this RCM was properly reported in point 3.1(d).

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses a common GSTR-3B error where Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) Input Tax Credit (ITC) was incorrectly reported under Table 4(4) (Inward supplies from ISD) instead of Table 4(3) (Inward supplies liable to reverse charge). Although the outward supply reporting was correct, this misclassification leads to unutilised RCM balance. Since GSTR-3B cannot be revised, the recommended solution involves adjusting the error in subsequent GSTR-3B filings by correctly reporting the ITC under the appropriate head, or potentially addressing it during the GSTR-9 filing.

Verify the Mistake: 

Confirm the incorrect reorting by checking the GSTR-3B filed for Q3 of the previous year. 

Ensure that the RCM amount was indeed wrongly reported under 4(4) instead of 4(3). 

Rectification through GSTR-3B for the Current Period:

For the current quarter: If the error is noticed in the current quarter, you can adjust it in the current quarter's GSTR-3B. However, the specific RCM amount should be correctly reported under the appropriate head in Table-4.

3. Filing a Revised Return (if possible) or Adjusting in Subsequent Returns: 

Revising GSTR-3B: As per GST rules, GSTR-3B cannot be revised. Therefore, yo cannot directly correct the error by revising the return for Q3 of the previous year. 

Adjustment in Subsequent Returns: Any error or omission in GSTR-3B can be adjusted in the subsequent returns. You can adjust the ITC in the current quarter or subsequent quarters by correctly reporting it in the relevant tables. 

4. Reconciliation and Reporting: Ensure that the correct amont is reported in the correct table in the subsequent GSTR-3B returns. 

Keep records of the correction made and the rationale behind it for future reference and audit purposes.

Hello everyone,

Please suggest some solution to this error, mentioned in original post.

Waiting since 5 months for someone to give proper solution for this error.

Please guide.

Thanking you all in advance.

It is matter of incorrect representation made in the GSTR-3B. There is no impcting our "Net Eligible ITC". This you can resolve at the time of filing GSTR-9 or there is second approach which may not be appropriate but you can report negative amount in the GSTR-3B which will solve your issue :)

Thank you Jayesh ji for your reply.
