july RCM paid in aug gstr3b, can we show them in july gstr2

[RameshBabu Kari]

Dear Expert,

We had filed the gst3b for the month of july-2017 with considering RCM. Later we come to know that we need to gst on rcm basis. Then we have filed those july related rcm in aug2017. Here my doubt is that, in gstr2 of july, cam we show those rcm ? If we show in the july gstr2, while it filing the gstr3 such amount related to rcm will ask again to pay, for those we have already paid in aug gstr3b ?

or is it better to show in the month of aug gstr2 ?

Please give your expertise on this issue.

AI Summary

Reverse charge mechanism: report RCM transactions in the return period when tax was paid to avoid reopening prior returns. Do not amend the earlier filed return; record RCM transactions in the GSTR-2 of the period when the tax was paid and reflected in GSTR-3B, rather than reopening the prior period's GSTR-2, to align reporting with payment and avoid procedural and reconciliation problems.
