basis of information furnished by his suppliers in their respective returns such as GSTR-1,

each document filed by suppliers.

• When is it generated and made available to taxpayers

GSTR-2B is made available to the taxpayers on 14th day of the succeeding month. It is a
static
statement.

• What are the inputs of GSTR-2B

✓ B2B documents filed by the suppliers in their GSTR-1, IFF and GSTR-5 filed by
NRTP taxpayers.

generated for Jan 21, contains the details of all the documents filed in their monthly
GSTR-1 from 00:00 hrs on 12th Jan, 2020 to 23:59 hrs on 11th Feb, 2020

✓ For quarterly GSTR-1/IFF, GSTR-5 and 6 filers, any IFF/GSTR-1/5 and GSTR-6 filed

in the next open GSTR-2B of the recipient irrespective of the date of issuance of the
concerned document. If a supplier issues a document INV-1 dt 15.05.2020 in form GSTR-
1 for July, 2020 filed on 11st August 2020, the details of INV-1, dt 15.05.2020 will

✓ The statement contains information on import of goods from ICEGATE system


including Inward supplies of goods received from SEZ Units/Developers.

Negative liability in GSTR-4 (Annual return by Composition Taxpayers)

• Composition taxpayers have to pay the liability through GST CMP-08 on a quarterly
basis while GSTR-4 return is required to be filed on an annual basis

• Liability for the complete year is to be declared in GSTR-4 under applicable tax rates in
table 6 of the return. If no liability is declared in table 6, though there is payment made
through Form GST CMP-08, it is presumed to be no liability.

• Taxpayers should declare the values in Table 6 even though liability is auto
populated in
Table 5 of GSTR 4. If nothing is declared in Table 6, negative liability appears in GSTR-4

• If table 6 of the document is not filled up due to oversight, a ticket may be raised to nullify
the amount available in the negative liability statement and the same excess liability
can be utilized to pay liability of the future periods.
Changes related to QRMP scheme implemented on GST portal for
the
taxpayers
• Auto population of GSTR-3B liability from IFF and GSTR 1: Taxpayer under the
scheme can declare the liability through optional IFF for month 1 and month 2 of a quarter
& GSTR
– 1for month 3 of the quarter

• Liability would be auto-populated in Form GSTR-3B for that quarter, based on their
filed
Form GSTR-1 and IFF.

• Values are auto populated and in cases where the values are attempted to be edited,
a
warning message shall be displayed on the screen.

• Taxpayer is however not prevented from filing form GSTR-3B with edited values.
• Nil filing of Form GSTR-1 (Quarterly) through SMS has been enabled for taxpayers under
the
QRMP scheme.

• Filing through SMS cannot be done if IFF for month 1 or month 2 of a quarter is in
submitted stage but not filed (or) Invoices are saved in IFF for month 1 or 2 of a quarter,
which is not submitted or filed by due date

• Impact of cancellation of registration on liability to file GSTR 1

If the registration of a taxpayer under QRMP scheme is cancelled, with the effective date
of cancellation being any date after 1st day of month 1 of a quarter, they would be required to
file Form GSTR -1 for the complete quarter, as the last applicable return.

Step 1:
Step 2
Implementation of Delinking Credit/Debit Notes on the GSTN
Portal

• Original invoice number was mandatorily required to be quoted by the taxpayers, while
reporting a Credit Note or Debit Note in Form GSTR-1 or Form GSTR-6
• Facilities
• Report in their Form GSTR-1 or in Form GSTR-6, single credit note, or debit note
issued
in respect of multiple invoices
• Choose the note supply type as Regular, SEZ, DE, Export etc., to identify the
table to which such credit note or debit note pertains
• Indicate Place of Supply (POS) against each credit note or debit note, to identify
the supply type i.e. Intra-State or Inter-State

65
Implementation of Delinking Credit/Debit Notes on the GSTN
Portal

• Debit /Credit Notes can be declared with tax amount, but without any taxable value
also
i.e. if credit note or debit note is issued for difference in tax rate only, then note value
can
be reported as ‘Zero’. Only tax amount will have to be entered in such cases.
• Similar changes have been made while reporting amendments to credit note or debit note
• Changes in Refund module
• Report such credit notes or debit notes in statements without mentioning the
related
invoice number.
• Refund application of different types/ cases like Export, SEZ, Inverted Duty Structure

66
Practical Issues on GST portal

• GST portal doesn’t allow us to copy or paste values from any other applications
such
excel or word. Allowing such feature will reduce typo errors.
• Unable to include negative values in GSTR-3B. Portal should have separate line
for
credit notes.
• While using the offline utility for uploading export invoices for filing GST
Refund
application, the date and month interchanges after uploading.
• B2B table of GSTR 1 needs search option. If any invoice needs to be edited
after
uploading as B2B, we have to manually check every GSTIN.
• Editing a B2B invoice after uploading is a lengthy process.
Practical Issues on GST portal

• If the B2B invoices uploaded exceeds 500 invoices, we will not able to view
the uploaded invoices on the GST portal.

• The documents uploaded along with GST refund application is restricted to


50MB and only 10 files are allowed to upload. The limit prescribed is less as
the list of documents required to upload such as export invoice or FIRC or
Shipping bill.

• E-way bill report is available for last 5 days in the portal, this needs to be enhanced

• Amendment in GSTR 1 for B2C and Export invoice is allowed only once.
However in practical cases we need to amend more than one time, the portal should
allow for the same. The GST law doesn’t restrict us to amend only one time.

• The process for using DSC is tedious process as the Emsigner has multiple glitches.
• Practical Issues on GST portal
• While filling the application for registration, the jurisdiction is auto populated based on
PIN code, however same is getting rejected by state authorities. Further, selection of state
jurisdiction is confusing for tax payers as there unavailability of list of jurisdictions.

• In the return dashboard we have GSTR 2A. GSTR 2B and Quarterly GSTR 2B.
Theses multiple options are confusing tax payers.

• Common ITC claim column to be included in GSTR 3B

• The auto-populated values in GSTR 3B in the Table3.2 is incorrect. The net of advances
is also included in the auto populated values

• Saved refund application will not be available on the portal

• Bulk GSTIN search along with SEZ view must be available

• We have multiple avenues to view notices in “View notice & orders” and again
• Practical Issues on GST
portal
• In GSTR 1 the auto populated from E-invoice has source as E-invoice, once we edit the
same the source changes to blank if we change the rate of tax in Export invoice.
(Notification No. 70/2020 - Central Tax).

• In case of GST refund, if the export invoice have multiple receipts spread over
different refund periods, the export invoice cannot be uploaded 2nd time as the
portal restricts saying we have already uploaded the same in previous refund period.
Further, the invoice value also cannot be modified.

• The auto population of GSTR 1 from E-invoice portal is completed only on 10th of the
subsequent month.

• Notice dashboard must be available which has tax period wise notice along with replies
made to them.
