I forgot Purchase Invoice Entry in Last Quarter GSTR-3B filing.
Now, in this quarter, when I try to file GSTR-3B with previous invoice included (of course the ITC increases more than 5% of total) - GSTR-3B @portal says:
'For table 4 - The information entered by you in tiles which are highlighted in red is in variance with the auto-populated data in table 4A and 4B. The input tax credit has been auto-populated based on the GSTR-2B generated for you. Also, please note that any variance above 5% of the input tax credit is in contravention to Rule 36(4) of the CGST Rules, 2017. Kindly recheck and proceed.'
Should i go ahead and file OR is there a way out?
