As per the answer given to question No. 21 of FAQ on filing of GSTR-9 " the total amount of input tax credit availed through FORM GSTR-3B cannot be edited. Therefore you have to approach the Nodal officer of your jurisdiction to claim the credit.

If the issue is that the GSTR-3B figure is wrongly getting auto populated, you can get this escalated to helpdesk. They would rectify it. In known case, it was done. Other option is to request the auditor to highlight this in 9C
