Recent updates for GSTR-9 and GSTR-9C:

The recent updates for GSTR-9 and GSTR-9C are significant for taxpayers, aiming to simplify compliance and improve the accuracy of annual return filings.

  • Consolidated Reporting for Exempted and Nil-Rated Supplies: Taxpayers can now report values for exempted, nil-rated supplies, credit and debit notes, and amendments in a consolidated manner. This change reduces the need for detailed, itemized disclosures and simplifies the filing process.
  • Auto-Population of Eligible ITC from GSTR-2B: Starting from FY 2023-24, the GST system will automatically populate eligible ITC from domestic supplies (excluding reverse charge ITC and imports) from Table 3(I) of GSTR-2B into Table 8A of GSTR-9. This new feature reduces manual intervention, minimizes errors, and ensures consistency between the annual return (GSTR-9) and ITC details in GSTR-2B.
  • Validation Utility for Auto-Populated Data :  A validation utility will be progressively rolled out for taxpayers to validate the auto-populated data in GSTR-9 from GSTR-2B for the period from April 2023 to March 2024.
