From the desk of Chairman
JULY 2019 (E-newsletter) V Issue
In July, we witnessed for the first time in the history of India that Union Budget was presented
by a female Finance Minister. The clarity that our Hon’ble Finance Minister Mrs. Nirmala
Sitaraman possessed was quite evident from the press conference held by her after the budget
was presented in Parliament. Hope policy reforms that are need of the hour will soon be
implemented and executed by her. Looking into the immediate need of members, a 3 Hrs CPE
seminar on Union Budget 2019 proposal was organized on Sunday 07.07.2019 with speaker
CA. Kapil Goel, Delhi deliberating on the subject.
There can always be arguments in favor or against the budget. But I would like to
congratulate Government for one eye catching proposal i.e. introduction of Amnesty Scheme
in Service Tax and Excise matters. This is a reflection of clear intention of the government to
close all old judicial matters and start afresh with new indirect tax regime that has engulfed
India in last 2 years.
This month was full of events. We celebrated our foundation day on 1st July where there was
overwhelming presence at flag hosting, felicitation of members, plantation of saplings, and
members proactively showed awareness towards health by turning in large number for
medical tests and blood donation. An eventful week included Save Water Marathon,
distribution of stationary kit to needy students, Lok-Nukkad Natak at Central Roadways Bus
Stand on Swacch Bharat theme, career counselling and GST literacy seminar in Govt. Meera
Girls College, investor awareness programme and literacy camp on Income Tax and GST.
For students, an industrial visit on 13th July 2019 was organized by our CICASA committee
for CA students which I believe is a perfect way to give practical exposure to students of
what is to come ahead. Then, on 21st-22nd July “CA Student’s Talent Search-2019” was
organized at branch level having competition of quiz/elocution/instrument music/nukkad
drama. Winners at Branch level will now participate at regional/national/international level
Monsoon has set in and we are waiting for heavy downpours. Every time I see heaven pouring
down, I get reminded of this quote - “Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee,
the small child and the smiling faces. Smell the rain and feel the wind. Live your life to the
fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.” Let’s pray for lots of rain in coming days.

A. PRESS RELEASE ISSUED BY CBIC ON 03RD JULY 2019
REGARDING GSTR- 9CQuery in Comment
Role of chartered accountant or a cost accountant in
certifying reconciliation statement - There are
apprehensions that the chartered accountant or cost
accountant may go beyond the books of account in their
recommendations under FORM GSTR-9C. The GST Act is
clear in this regard. With respect to the reconciliation
statement, their role is limited to reconciling the values
declared in annual return (FORM GSTR-9) with the audited
annual accounts of the taxpayer
This is first time that a GSTR-9C will be certified by
Chartered Accountant/ Cost Accountant. The biggest
challenge is that scope of this certification on bare reading of
statement of GSTR-9C along-with certification seems to be
humongous. This press release might be clarifying that we
don’t have to look for transactions beyond the annual
accounts. Just to highlight the fact that press release has
used annual accounts and not books of account because
both have different meaning. Books of account is much
wider term and particularly in context of GST, Section 35
read with Rule 56 has to be referred to. By referring annual
accounts in press release scope is curtailed to annual
accounts as compared to scope that was evident from
certification part given in GSTR-9C which required an
auditor to certify whether “ books of account” are properly
maintained or not.
Turnover for eligibility of filing of reconciliation
statement: It may be noted that the aggregate turnover i.e.
the turnover of all the registrations having the same
Permanent Account Number is to be used for determining
the requirement of filing of reconciliation statement.
Therefore, if there are two registrations in two different
States on the same PAN, say State A (with turnover of Rs.
1.2 Crore) and State B (with turnover of Rs. 1 Crore) they
are both required to file reconciliation statements
individually for their registrations since their aggregate
turnover is greater than Rs. 2 Crore. The aggregate turnover
for this purpose shall be reckoned for the period July, 2017
to March, 2018
It was point of huge confusion that whether aggregate
turnover is to be taken from April 17 to March 18 or July 17
to March 2018 for finding out eligibility of whether GSTR-
9C is required to be filed by the taxpayer. This clarification
comes as big relief for taxpayers as aggregate turnover for 2
crore limit for GST Audit is to be reckoned only for July
2017 to March 2019
Treatment of Credit Notes / Debit Notes issued during
FY 2018-19 for FY 2017-18 - It may be noted that no credit
note which has a tax implication can be issued after the
month of September 2018 for any supply pertaining to FY
2017-18; a financial/commercial credit note can, however,
be issued. If the credit or debit note for any supply was
issued and declared in returns of FY 2018-19 and the
provision for the same has been made in the books of
accounts for FY 2017-18, the same shall be declared in Pt. V
of the annual return. Many taxpayers have also represented
that there is no provision in Pt. II of the reconciliation
statement for adjustment in turnover in lieu of debit notes
issued during FY 2018-19 although provision for the same
was made in the books of accounts for FY 2017-18. In such
cases, they may adjust the same in Table 5O of the
reconciliation statement in FORM GSTR-9C
Clarification relating to presentation of credit note/ debit
note in GSTR-9 and consequently in GSTR-9C when
provision made in 17-18 itself for credit note though issued
in 18-19.
Reconciliation of input tax credit availed on expenses -
Table 14 of the reconciliation statement calls for
reconciliation of input tax credit availed on expenses with
input tax credit declared in the annual return. It may be
noted that only those expenses are to be reconciled where
Complete Reconciliation of expense is not required, only
those expenses has to be scrutinized relating to which ITC
has been availed.
Page 9
Query in Comment
input tax credit has been availed. Further, the list of
expenses given in Table 14 is a representative list of heads
under which input tax credit may have been availed. The
taxpayer has the option to add any head of expenses.
Payment of any unpaid tax -Section 73 of the CGST Act
provides a unique opportunity of self – correction to all
taxpayers i.e. if a taxpayer has not paid, short paid or has
erroneously obtained/been granted refund or has wrongly
availed or utilized input tax credit then before the service of
a notice by any tax authority, the taxpayer may pay the
amount of tax with interest. In such cases, no penalty shall
be leviable on such tax payer. Therefore, in cases where
some information has not been furnished in the statement of
outward supplies in FORM GSTR-1 or in the regular
returns in FORM GSTR-3B, such taxpayers may pay the
tax with interest through FORM GST DRC-03 at any time.
In fact, the annual return provides an additional opportunity
for such taxpayers to declare the summary of supply against
which payment of tax is made.
Annual return provides an opportunity to taxpayer to
reconcile and if any additional liability is found to be
payable then the same can be paid vide DRC-03 challan.
Here it is pertinent to mention here that if annual return is
selected as drop down while making payment through DRC-
03 challan then the same is to be paid in cash only.
In normal course credit can be used while making payment
through DRC-03 challan. In author’s view credit can be used
for payment of additional liability declared through annual
return.
Primary data source for declaration in annual return -
Time and again taxpayers have been requesting as to what
should be the primary source of data for filing of the annual
return and the reconciliation statement. There has been some
confusion over using FORM GSTR-1, FORM GSTR-3B
or books of accounts as the primary source of information. It
is important to note that both FORM GSTR-1 and FORM
GSTR-3B serve different purposes. While, FORM GSTR-1
is an account of details of outward supplies, FORM GSTR-
3B is where the summaries of all transactions are declared
and payments are made. Ideally, information in FORM
GSTR-1, FORM GSTR-3B and books of accounts should
be synchronous and the values should match across different
forms and the books of accounts. If the same does not
match, there can be broadly two scenarios, either tax was not
paid to the Government or tax was paid in excess. In the first
case, the same shall be declared in the annual return and
tax should be paid and in the latter all information may
be declared in the annual return and refund (if eligible) may
be applied through FORM GST RFD-01A. Further, no
input tax credit can be reversed or availed through the
annual return. If taxpayers find themselves liable for
reversing any input tax credit, they may do the same
through FORM GST DRC-03 separately.
It was popularly misconceived by the taxpayers that annual
return is summary of all the returns filed for the period July
2017 to March 2018. Unfortunately some assesse taxpayer
might have filed the return on the basis of auto populated
data in GSTR-9 by the site. However GSTR-9 as notified by
NN 74/2018- CT cannot be interpreted in a way to conclude
that GSTR-9 is a mere summarization of annual return.
Earlier press release and this instruction in press release
clarified that synchronization between GSTR-1, GSTR-3B
and books of account should be made while preparing
annual return. In nutshell, books of account along-with
GSTR-3b should be the basis for preparing annual return.
Premise of Table 8D of Annual Return - There appears to
be some confusion regarding declaration of input tax credit
in Table 8 of the annual return. The input tax credit which is
declared / computed in Table 8D is basically credit that was
available to a taxpayer in his FORM GSTR-2A but was
not availed by him between July 2017 to March 2019.
The deadline has already passed and the taxpayer cannot
avail such credit now. There is no question of lapsing of any
such credit, since this credit
Table 8D is the difference between the credit as availed by
the taxpayer and the credit as appearing in GSTR-2A as on
01.05.2019. Government has clarified that this is merely an
information which it needs for settlement purpose. This
sentence can be constructed as big relief for taxpayers who
have taken credit in excess of appearing in GSTR-2A,
though taken on the basis of valid invoiced and were
worrying of lapsing of credit on account of difference with
GSTR-2A.

.Query in Comment
never entered the electronic credit ledger of any taxpayer.
Therefore, taxpayers need not be concerned about the
values reflected in this table. This is merely an information
that the Government needs for settlement purposes. Figures
in Table 8A of FORM GSTR-9 are auto-populated only
for those FORM GSTR-1 which were furnished by the
corresponding suppliers by the due date. Thus, ITC on
supplies made during the financial year 2017-18, if reported
beyond the said date by the corresponding supplier, will not
get auto-populated in said Table 8A. It may also be noted
that FORM GSTR-2A continues to be auto-populated on
the basis of the corresponding FORM GSTR-1 furnished
by suppliers even after the due date. In such cases there
would be a mis-match between the updated FORM GSTR-
2A and the auto-populated information in Table 8A. It is
important to note that Table 8A of the annual returns is
auto- populated from FORM GSTR-2A as on 1st May,
2019.
Premises of Table 8J of Annual Return - In the press
release on annual return issued earlier on 4th June 2019, it
has already been clarified that all credit of IGST paid at the
time of imports between July 2017 to March 2019 may be
declared in Table 6E. If the same is done properly by a
taxpayer, then Table 8I and 8J shall contain information on
credit which was available to the taxpayer and the taxpayer
chose not to avail the same. The deadline has already passed
and the taxpayer cannot avail such credit now. There is no
question of lapsing of any such credit, since this credit never
entered the electronic credit ledger of any taxpayer.
Therefore, taxpayers need not be concerned about the values
reflected in this table. This is information that the
Government needs for settlement purposes
In the press release on annual return issued earlier on 4th
June 2019, it has already been clarified that all credit of
IGST paid at the time of imports between July 2017 to
March 2019 may be declared in Table 6E. If the same is
done properly by a taxpayer, then Table 8I and 8J shall
contain information on credit which was available to the
taxpayer and the taxpayer chose not to avail the same. As
per the press release deadline to avail the credit was 31st
March 2019 hence the same cannot be availed.
Difficulty in reporting of information not reported in
regular returns - There have been a number of
representations regarding non-availability of information in
Table16A or 18 of Annual return in FORM GSTR-9. It has
been observed that smaller taxpayers are facing a lot of
challenge in reporting information that was not being
explicitly reported in their regular statement/returns (FORM
GSTR-1 and FORM GSTR-3B). Therefore, taxpayers are
advised to declare all such data / details (which are not part
of their regular statement/returns) to the best of their
knowledge and records. This data is only for information
purposes and reasonable/explainable variations in the
information reported in these tables will not be viewed
adversely
There is certain information as required in annual return like
inward supplies from composition taxpayers, HSN wise
summary of inward supplies which was not asked in GSTR-
1, GSTR-4 and GSTR-3B, hence great difficulty is being
faced by taxpayers in filling this data. Government has
clarified that information can be filled to the best of
knowledge on the basis of records, since the same is
informative purpose.
Question that stands before an assesse is whether it can be
argued that such information cannot be demanded by the
government. Unfortunately answer is negative because as
per Section 35(5) read with Rule 56, 57 and 58 every
registered person is required to maintain the inward supplies
records.
Now second question arises what if the same information is
not furnished. Will it be treated as suppression of facts to
invoke any demand under Section 74 of CGST Act.
Unfortunately answer is yes in our view but courts have also
held that suppression should go hand in hand with intention
to evade duty for invoking demand under extended period.
Hence there is always a shelter for assesse to prove that there
was no intention to evade duty in not providing those details.

Query in Comment
Information in Table 5D (Exempted), Table 5E (Nil
Rated) and Table 5F (Non-GST Supply): It has been
represented by various trade bodies/associations that there
appears to be some confusion over what values are to be
entered in Table 5D,5E and 5F of FORM GSTR-9. Since,
there is some overlap between supplies that are classifiable
as exempted and nil rated and since there is no tax payable
on such supplies, if there is a reasonable/explainable overlap
of information reported across these tables, such overlap will
not be viewed adversely. The other concern raised by
taxpayers is the inclusion of no supply in the category of
Non-GST supplies in Table 5F. For the purposes of
reporting, non-GST supplies includes supply of alcoholic
liquor for human consumption, motor spirit (commonly
known as petrol), high speed diesel, aviation turbine fuel,
petroleum crude and natural gas and transactions specified in
Schedule III of the CGST Act.
Exempted, Nil rated and Non GST supplies cannot be
clearly segregated as per GST Law read with rules,
notification etc., however there is a separate requirement to
report exempted, nil rated and non GST supply in GSTR-9.
Hence such difficulty is sought to be removed by this
instruction by expressing reporting under the three will not
be viewed adversely.
Reverse charge in respect of Financial Year 2017-18
paid during Financial Year 2018- 19 - Many taxpayers
have requested for clarification on the appropriate column or
table in which tax which was to be paid on reverse charge
basis for the FY 2017-18 but was paid during FY 2018-19.
It may be noted that since the payment was made during FY
2018-19, the input tax credit on such payment of tax would
have been availed in FY 2018-19 only. Therefore, such
details will not be declared in the annual return for the FY
2017-18 and will be declared in the annual return for FY
2018-19. If there are any variations in the calculation of
turnover on account of this adjustment, the same may be
reported with reasons in the reconciliation statement
(FORM GSTR-9C).
This clarification was much required as there was huge
confusion about this aspect on the appropriate column or
table in which tax which was to be paid on reverse charge
basis for the FY 2017-18 but was paid during FY 2018-19.
As per the press release the same is required to be reported
in 18-19 annual return instead of 17-18 annual return.
What will happen in case when RCM liability of 17-18 is
not paid in 18-19 is not made clear?
As per author’s view the same needs to be identified and
paid before filing of annual return of 17-18 so that assesse
might save the credit in such case on such RCM liability
paid.
Duplication of information in Table 6B and 6H - Many
taxpayers have represented about duplication of
information in Table 6B and 6H of the annual return. It may
be noted that the label in Table 6H clearly states that
information declared in Table 6H is exclusive of Table 6B.
Therefore, information of such input tax credit is to be
declared in one of the rows only

1 Sale of
capital
goods
In respect of sale of
capital goods, only the
profit / loss arising on
the sale of such capital
goods is disclosed in the
Profit and Loss account.
However, the GST on
the supply of capital
goods is leviable on the
transaction value or
input tax credit is
reversed as per the
formula prescribed in
Section 18(6) of the
CGST Act.
Yes In order to reconcile the
difference between GSTR-9
and GSTR-9C, the profit / loss
arising from the sale of such
capital goods has to be
deducted from the Gross
turnover of the audited Annual
Financial Statement and the
value on which GST has been
paid has to be added under
Table 5O of GSTR 9C to
reconcile with the amount
disclosed in Form GSTR 9.
Data for such

2 Inward
supply
returns
considered
as Outward
supply
Taxable persons may
have adopted the
practice of raising a tax
invoice for the purpose
of inward supply
returns. However, for
the purpose of accounts,
the same would be
considered inward
supply return and
reduced from the total
purchase value instead
of disclosing as revenue
in books of accounts.
Yes In such a situation, the
aggregate value of inward
supply returns which have
been considered outward
supply under the GST have to
be added to the Gross turnover
as per the audited Annual
Financial Statement to
reconcile with the amount
disclosed in Form GSTR-9.
Data for such

from the revenue,
Yes Aggregate value of such
turnover has to be reduced
from the gross turnover
declared in the audited
Annual Financial

Where the taxable
person has received
some out of pocket
expenses and has
considered the same as
the value of supply of
goods/services, but the
same is not recognized
as income in P&L
account.
Yes Such Amount should be
added under Table 5O of
GSTR 9C to reconcile with
the amount disclosed in
Form GSTR 9.
Data for such
transactions
can be
ascertained
from credit
entries in the
expense
ledgers.
No To be shown in Part V of
GSTR-9C as auditor’s
recommendation on
additional liability under the
head- Any other amount to

5 Sales return relating
to sales made for
the period prior to
July 2017
As per Section 142(1)
of the CGST Act, in
respect of goods on
which duty/tax had
been paid under the
existing law, but were
returned on or after
01.07.2017, the taxable
person was entitled to
claim refund of the tax
paid under the existing
law, but the person to
whom the goods were
supplied was not
registered.
Yes In such a situation the sales
return would not have been
disclosed in the GST
returns. However, the sales
return would have been
deducted from the revenue
in the books of accounts.
Therefore, the value of such
sales return should be added
to the gross turnover
declared in the audited
Annual Financial
Statements.
Data for such
