If there are no change in value the return filed for previous month, GSTR 3B, is valid. You should not add the sales value in the current return, GSTR 3B, since the sales value has already been considered in the previous GSTR 3B return of respective month.

Revision / Reset has different process online, which should be read before initiating any steps further.
