Frequently Asked Questions
GSTR-2B is an auto-drafted statement showing available ITC based on suppliers' GSTR-1 filings. Since ITC can only be claimed to the extent reflected in GSTR-2B, monthly reconciliation with your purchase register is critical. Differences result in either unclaimed ITC (a direct cost) or excess claims (attracting demand and penalty). We perform this reconciliation for every client, every month.
RCM applies where the recipient pays GST instead of the supplier — including legal services from advocates, GTA freight, imported services, security services, and supply from unregistered dealers in notified categories. Missing RCM liabilities is one of the most common GST audit findings. We review all transactions for RCM applicability as part of our monthly compliance process.
Common triggers include: GSTR-1 vs GSTR-3B mismatches, GSTR-9 vs GSTR-3B differences, unusually high ITC-to-output-tax ratios, discrepancies between GST and income tax returns, and delayed or non-filing of returns. Our pre-filing review is specifically designed to identify and correct these mismatches before they become audit triggers.
Yes, but it requires filing a refund application for the wrongly-paid tax while paying the correct liability separately. Since refund processing takes several months, cash flow is temporarily impacted. We proactively verify all payment challans before submission to prevent cross-head errors.
E-invoicing is mandatory for businesses with aggregate turnover exceeding ₹5 crore in any previous financial year. The threshold has been progressively lowered — we advise all clients to confirm their applicability and implement compliant E-invoicing workflows well before the due date.
