Annual return9A

[Ravikumar Doddi]

Dear sir,

In 9A table 8A purchase from registerd dealer is it Mandatory to furnish.

[KASTURI SETHI]

There is Table 8 only and not 8A. I have filed annual return 9 A for my client. Table 8 pertains to other inward supplies. It is not mandatory. My return has been accepted by the Common Portal System without filing Table 8. It was not required. The system filled it nil (auto-populated). The 9A return wholly depends on the quarterly returns filed during the financial year (2017-18 i.e. July, 17 to March, 18). My Table no.6 and Table 9 matched and the system accepted. I have also filed Annual Return 9 of some other parties wherein the data filled in GSTR 1 matched with GSTR 3B and the system accepted the annual returns. I mean to say figures filled in both GSTR 1 and GSTR-3B during the whole year must match otherwise red mark will appear.

Thank you very much sir

In Table 8 There is column A. Inward supplies from registered persons (other than 7A) is it Mandatory

[KASTURI SETHI]

If you have received other inward supplies during 17-18, you must fill serial no.A of Table 8. If you have not received 'other inward supplies' and then on the basis of quarterly returns filed, the system may show 0 auto populated. You know the facts. I do not know the facts. Annual Return is the last opportunity to rectify mistake, if any occurred. during 17-18. Once filed Annual Return is filed, you will not be able to revise it.

AI Summary

Annual return reporting of inward supplies requires Table entries when supplies exist and relies on quarterly return matching. Annual return reporting requires reporting of other inward supplies in Table 8 column A when such supplies were received; otherwise the system may auto-populate nil values based on quarterly returns. The annual return depends on reconciliation of figures in GSTR 1 and GSTR 3B across the year, and once the annual return is filed it cannot be revised.
