July, 2017:
i) Incorrect SB number in GSTR 1
There are cases where the shipping bill number quoted in GSTR 1 either does not exist or it pertains to another exporter. In respect of these claims, the only way out is to amend the GSTR 1 (Amendments to taxable outward supply details furnished in returns for earlier tax periods) and enter the correct shipping bill number. In these cases, the amendments for information furnished in GSTR 1 for July 2017 need to be filed in Table 9A of GSTR 1 for August 2017. GSTN has been asked to provide for immediate implementation of this Table so that all such claims can be processed once amendment is filed.
