How to dealt with Difference in Input Tax Credit (ITC) available in GSTR-2B & ITC claimed in the GSTR-3B
The government introduced Rule 88D in CGST Rule, 2017 to address the difference between input tax credit in GSTR-2B and GSTR-3B. As per News and Updates dated 6th Oct 2023, this functionality is now operating on the GST portal. The system matches ITC from GSTR-2B/2BQ with claimed ITC from GSTR-3B/3BQ for each period and If claimed ITC exceeds ITC available as per GSTR-2B by predefined limits, the taxpayer receives an intimation in Form DRC-01C. The taxpayer must file a response using Form DRC-01C Part B, providing payment details using Form DRC-03 and/or an explanation for the difference. If no response is filed, taxpayers cannot file subsequent period GSTR-1/IFF.
