Where to show nil rated supply in GSTR-1

January 31, 2019 87678 Views 10 comments Print

Suppose registered dealer A has sold goods worth Rs. 100000/- to registered dealer B. The category of goods is nil rated. Now as law, it should be shown in Table 8. If it is shown here then it is shown here as consolidated figure for the period for one month or three month as the case may be. No details regarding GST registration number of purchaser & name is mentioned here. So purchaser cannot match his nil rated purchases with his seller. This is somewhat cumbersome.
