Advisory on difference in value of Table 8A and 8C of Annual Returns FY 23-24

Dec 9th, 2024

As per the Notification No 12/2024 Central Tax dated 10th July 2024 read with Notification No.20/2024-Central Tax Dated 8th October 2024, for FY 2023-24 onwards, the total credit available for inwards supplies shall be auto-populated in the table 8A of Form GSTR 9 from GSTR-2B of the FY 23-24. Further, in table 8C of Form GSTR-9 total value of ITC on inwards supplies received during the FY but availed in next FY up to specified period, need to be filled manually.

2. Various tickets are received, wherein concerns have been raised regarding possible mismatch between the values of table 8A and 8C of Form GSTR-9 for FY 23-24. It is pertinent to mention that for FY 22-23 in table 8A of Form GSTR-9, values were getting auto populated from GSTR-2A however for FY 23-24 same are being auto populated from GSTR-2B. Therefore, to some extent, in Form GSTR-9 of FY 23-24, values in Table 8A will be inflated in respect of FY 22-23 at the same time values will be lower than expected in respect of FY 23-24, hence there will be a mismatch between the two tables i.e. 8A and 8C. Few scenarios in this regard are advised hereunder:
