Further to my response ,
In case of discount where value shall stand reduced , a credit note can be issued by supplier not later that September 2018 or date of filing of return whichever is earlier ( Sec 34 (2) of CGST Act )
Credit note should have details ie . Taxable value ,Rate of tax and amount of tax credited .Clients ( Recipient ) can not issue debit note.
