Wrong invoice filed in GSTR 1

Quick Summary
If you've mistakenly filed GSTR 1 with an excess amount on an invoice and paid the tax, you can rectify this. The primary method is to issue a credit note to the customer for the differential amount. This credit note will reflect in the customer's GSTR-2B, allowing them to reduce their Input Tax Credit (ITC). You can then reduce your own tax liability in subsequent GSTR-3B returns by the excess amount paid. Alternatively, if the invoice itself was correct but reported incorrectly, you can file an amendment in your next GSTR-1.

Your client can amend the invoice in next month and reduce the excess amount from GSTR-3B too

Amendment or credit note to be issued ?

Don't issue credit note if the invoice is correct because it will reflect for reversal in your customer's GSTR-2B. File amendment of wrong invoices in your next GSTR-1. If payment have also been made in excess then reduce liability in GSTR-3B
