ERROR AT THE TIME OF FILING GSTR 3B

[ANITA BHADRA]

Dear Experts

While filing GSTR 3 B , I had paid tax amount thru electronic cash ledger . Now I realize the amount has not been debited from Electronic cash ledger . Status is showing return Filed but tax amount is still avaliable.

What is to be done now? . Does it means , payment has not gone and I am liable to pay interest .

Kindly guide.

Please check in Duty Liability in Col No 6 [Payment of Tax]. If the same shown NIL Liability and whatever was due paid in Cash, then no issues. E-Cash Ledger will be updated shortly.

If your electronic cash ledger is NIL it means the liability got adjusted. Sometime it takes time to reflect in the ledger. Thanks

Thank you Sir for response

Electronic Cash ledger balance is avaliable . Its not showing NIL .

Amount debited from electronic cash ledger is showing NIL .

AI Summary

Electronic cash ledger update delays may not indicate unpaid tax liability; check Duty Liability column for payment adjustment. A taxpayer filed GSTR 3B and attempted to pay tax from the Electronic Cash Ledger but the ledger did not show the debit. Verify the Duty Liability column: if it shows no outstanding liability, the payment is treated as discharged and the Electronic Cash Ledger may be delayed in reflecting the transaction; if the ledger still shows balance and the Duty Liability is unadjusted, reconcile payments as the tax may remain unpaid and interest could be applicable.
