Difficulties in Filing GSTR TRAN-1

[NageswaraRao Sripada]

Query No.1: We were holding TIN No. 28935428255 in the erstwhile and combined State of Andhra Pradesh. We have filed the return “ORIGINAL MONTHLY RETURN FOR VALUE ADDED TAX (FORM VAT 200)” for the month of May, 2014[last return] on 23.06.2014, carrying out a balance of input credit of Rs.32,85,460/-. Consequent to separation of state, we have obtained VAT Registration No.36935428255 in Telanagana State. At the advent of GST w.e.f. 01.07.2017, we filed “ORIGINAL MONTHLY RETURN FOR VALUE ADDED TAX (FORM VAT 200)” [last] for the month of June, 2017 on 10.07.2017, carrying out the balance of input credit of Rs.1,33,616/-. To claim the transition credit of ₹ 34,19,076/- in the GSTR-TRAN-1 (yet to be filed) in Table “State/UT Tax”, the system is not accepting submission with remarks “processed with error” and when we are trying to submit the same

“Records with processed with error exists. Kindly Edit/Delete to proceed further”.

Any number of time we repeat the entries, the same remarks are being exhibited and we are not able to submit and file the GSTR-TRAN-1. Please solve our problem. If we do not file GSTR-TRAN-1, is there any provision of refund of Rs.34,19,076/-?

Query No.2: We have got a balance of cenvat credit of ₹ 82,22,897/- (Including Cesses and AED) as on 31.01.2017 and we filed the E.R.1 for January, 2017 on 04.02.2017. As the factory has been closed since then, we filed NIL E.R.1 returns for the Months of February, March, April, May and June, 2017 (the E.R.1 for June, 2017 filed on 04.07.2017. The balance as on 31.01.2017 (as shown in E.R.1 for January, 2017) were not carried over in these returns as the returns are NIL. To claim the transitional credit of ₹ 82,22,897/- in the GSTR TRAN-1, the system is not accepting submission with the remarks “Records with processed with error exists. Kindly Edit/Delete to proceed further”. Any number of time we repeat the entries, the same remarks are being exhibited and we are not able to submit and file the GSTR-TRAN-1. If we do not file GSTR-TRAN-1, is there any provision of refund of Rs.82,22,897/-? Finally, are we loosers or is there any remedy?
