    Rate wise taxability on outward supply as disclosed in Table 9. The auditor has relied on information as provided by management /the basis of books of Account. Auditor has reconciled only rate as per books of account and rates declared in GST returns. We have not verified the accuracy and correctness of classification in books of account as same has also been suggested vide para h of the press release dated 3rd July 2019. Does this press release still holds valid???

    Sir, I think there is a small typographical mistake in Table 6 as Table 6A provides auto-populated from GSTR-3B return and not GSTR-2A.
