  3. Sajin Balasubramanian says:

    Dear Sir,
    we are doing trade on franchasee, thats why sales promotion as per parent company, we are getting commission for sales, But we are paying for against purchase to them,
    our purchase tax is more than sales tax, why means we are selling as per vendor instruction, eg two item purchasing, means product A worth 1000, and product B worth 1500 so we are giving tax , tax rate is 5% pls assume , then total input tax is 125(75+50), But at time of sales , as per vendor on buy one get two scheme, we are selling after clubbing and charging in invoice worth 1500 only for both item worth 1500 and 1000, so we has to pay tax 75 only, means we have 50 excess in tax, input tax is 125, but output tax is 75 only, thats why our electronic ledger is showing morethan 5 lakh, unclaimed , so how we get back, pls advice
    regards

    Dear Sir,
    I have downloaded the auto populated Forms from The GST Portal for GSTR9, GSTR3B and GSTR1.Upon checking, the Taxable values show different figures in all the three forms. How should I enter the correct Taxable Value according to the books of accounts.
    Secondly in the year 2017-2018 excess Input Tax Credit was claimed which was not reversed, can the difference amount be revised in GSTR9.
    Also, during the same period The Input IGST was wrongly claimed under CGST and SGST, is there any solution to this issue
    Kindly assist us on these queries

  5. Sara says:

    I have queries related to GSTR-9
    1) Can we make any direct changes to GSTR-9 for F.Y 2017-18?
    2)Can we disclose the output tax liabilty not disclosed in GSTR-3B and GSTR-1 in GSTR-9?
    3) ITC claimed in GSTR-3B is as per invoices but the counter party did not show in his GSTR till date , there is a mismatch in GSTR-3B VS GSTR-2A. Solution for this?
    4) The ITC claimed as per GSTR-3B and GSTR-2A is matching, but ITC as per Table 8A of GSTR-9 is showing different amounts (i.e ITC auto-populated as per GSTR-2A),Which ITC should be taken as correct?
    5) If the turnover reported as per GST portal for April to June is mistakenly wrongly taken can we report the actual Turnover in GSTR-9C?
    6) If there is a credit note issued and its recorded by the counter party and by mistakenly we didn”t report it . Where to report in GSTR-9?
    7) When they are exempted sales and we have mistakenly taken in GSTR-1 in B2B sales and tax liability is zero. can we record this sales in GSTR-9 as
    exempted sales.?
    8) Can we report any Debit notes or credit notes issued during the F.Y 2017-18 in GSTR-9. If we didn’t recorded them earlier in GSTR-1 or GSTR_3B ?
    9) In GSTR-9 where we should record the Unrecorded Purchase returns? As Table 4 of GSTR-9 is(Details of advances,inward and outward supplies) and Point 4 I says CREDIT NOTES issued in respect of transactions specified in (B) to (E) above?

  24. Shweta Agarwal says:

    URGENT, Kindly suggest.

    Hello Sir,

    Regarding RCM, I paid the taxes (on RCM basis) during the return filing period for FY 17-18 (Jul-Sep) for Office Rent amount, while filing the GSTR 3B for each corresponding month.

    However, I missed to Avail (or forgot to show), the Input tax credit on the same(tax amount that I paid), during the same Financial Year for same corresponding months.

    Hence, I availed the ITC on that RCM, in next FY, that is in 2018-19, while filing GSTR 3B returns for the month of Apr 2018.

    Now, the only query is, where to show this type of ITC while filing GSTR 9
    In which Table and which column or head.
    Kindly suggest

    Regards
