New Changes in GSTR-1
Table 14 and Table 15 are added in the GST Portal
– The GSTN has added two new tables in GSTR-1 starting from January 2024 onwards.
1. Table 14 – Supplies Made Through E-Commerce Operators (In this table, you can add details of taxable outward supplies made through e-commerce operator.)
2. Table 15 – Supplies under Section 9(5) of the CGST Act (In this table, you can add details of taxable outward supplies on which the e-commerce operator is liable to pay tax under Section 9(5) of the CGST Act.)
– In GSTR – 3B, Table 3.1.1 addresses supplies notified under Section 9(5) of the CGST Act, 2017.
This table requires suppliers and e-commerce operators (ECOs) to separately report supplies on which the e-commerce operator is liable to pay tax.
Previously, GSTR-1 did not have specific tables for reporting these transactions separately. As a result, Table 3.1.1 in GSTR-3B was not auto-filled due to the absence of corresponding reporting sections.
GST ADVISORY: Opportunity for reporting opening balance for ITC reversal in Electronic Credit and Reclaimed Statement has been extended to 31st January, 2024.Further, opportunity to declare opening balance for ITC reversal will be available till 29th February, 2024.
