Where in GSTR-1 to show B2C Sale through E-Commerce Operator?

Assesse has sold few goods as B2C (Intra as well as Inter State) through Flipkart and he files GSTR-1 quarterly.

Now, as per my knowledge, these sales need to be reported in GSTR-1 under B2CS(7) column by selecting the type "E". But, while I am filing the GSTR-1 through offline utility, in excel format, I selected "E" then statewise reported the Taxable Value. But, at the time of processing the data, error was showing for these sales. I tried to insert these sales directly in online mode, but no where I found the option where the E-Commerce sales can be reported.

Please help regarding the matter.

 

Thank you.

Quick Summary
B2C sales through e-commerce operators like Flipkart should be reported in GSTR-1 under B2CS (outward supplies). No separate "E-commerce type E" selection is required in current utility; such supplies are shown as normal B2C with state-wise breakup. E-com operator details are auto-captured in GSTR-8.

Dear AB .

you are reporting it wrong .

No need to put or Select "E" , just report as Normal B2C sale

That means I have to select "OE" in case of these sales also, right?

yes .........................................

Okay...thank you so much

From april onwards. GSTR 8 is automatically added to gstr1 without giving option to declare supply thorough ecommerce operators. How to overcome this issue.

One of My client is a hotelier, he make sales through Zomato and Swiggy.  Now Swiggy and Zomato is collecting tax from customers. So where we have to show sales in GSTR 1.We shall show in B2C or B2B. Please help me out

B2C sales through e-commerce operators go in GSTR-1 just like any other B2C sales. You do not need to enter the operator GSTIN.

The correct table depends on the sale value per state:
- Under Rs 2.5 lakh from a single state: Table 7 (B2C Others, consolidated)
- Rs 2.5 lakh or more from a single state: Table 9 (B2C Large, state-wise breakup required)

Separately, the e-commerce operator is required to collect TCS (Tax Collected at Source) at 1% of net taxable value and file GSTR-8. That TCS shows up in your GSTR-2B. You claim it as a credit in Table 9 of your GSTR-3B.

So the short answer: your B2C e-commerce sales go in Table 7 or Table 9 of GSTR-1 depending on state-wise value. Operator GSTIN is not required in your returns.
