AI Summary

Client Seeks to File Optional GSTR-9; Experts Advise on Handling Clerical Error and Avoiding Late Fees A client with a turnover of 1,150,000 during FY 2019-20 did not file GSTR-9, as it was optional. The client now wishes to file it and is concerned about potential late fees. An excess tax liability of 200,000 was mistakenly declared in GSTR-1 due to a clerical error, leading to a notice. Experts suggest filing a manual GSTR-9 or an intimation letter explaining the discrepancy. It is recommended to provide a factual report with evidence to the jurisdictional officer to reconcile the sales and address the issue. The discussion provided valuable insights for the client.
