Simple to Know New Return Form GSTR 1A with Filing Process
The GST council has recommended one additional GST return Form, GSTR-1A. A new optional form, lets you change your GSTR-1 for a specific tax period. This means you can:
Add any sales details you missed in your original GSTR-1 filing.
Correct any mistakes you made in the reported sales details before the GSTR-3B filing.
This will help ensure that the accurate tax liability is automatically reflected in the GSTR-3B form.
The GSTN department has recently issued a new advisory about the GSTR-1A form. read more
Changes in GSTR-1A Before GSTR-3B Filing
The Form GSTR-1A shall furnish, the flexibility feature in the amendment. GSTR-1A shall permit the assesses to revise or add records within the identical month/same period post-filing GSTR-1 and before filing GSTR-3B. The assesses could not alter GSTR-1 in the identical duration post it has been filed. Any change or missed records should be reported in the GSTR-1 of the next return period.
The obligation revised shall be populated automatically in GSTR-3B, which enables the correct liability release.
Revisions or missed records could be notified in GSTR-1A prior to filing GSTR-3B, which also promotes, effective reporting.
What Does the Term GSTR- 1A Signify?
GSTR-1A authorized a registered assessee to update the details of sales for GSTR-1 which was filed before. Since 2017 the form is no longer in use. The data was derived from the buyer’s GSTR-2A when he altered any data. The seller either accepts or rejects the changes. Changes carried by the seller would have automatically been reflected in the GSTR-1.
In What Way Is GSTR-1A Distinct from GSTR-1?
GSTR-1 is a return that contains all the sales particulars. The seller taxpayer filled it. Information from one’s GSTR-1 will arise in his buyer’s GSTR-2 where he may alter some information. But till now the GSTR-2 and GSTR-3 have been suspended. Therefore, the information from GSTR-1 was passed onto GSTR-2A of the respective buyers.
In What Way Does GSTR-1A Work?
Check the example below for simplification:
Naveen purchases 100 pencils worth Rs. 500 from Rahul General Store
Rahul General Store has incorrectly shown it as Rs. 50 sales in his GSTR-1 Form
The data from Rahul’s GSTR-1 form will stream into the GSTR-2A of Naveen
Naveen immediately corrects it to Rs. 500
This change is reflected in Rahul’s GSTR-1A
When Rahul receives this correction, his GSTR-1 form gets updated automatically
Important Instructions for Filing of GSTR-1A
