1.   It has been reported by few taxpayers that their GSTR-2B for October-2024 period has not been generated on 14th November, 2024. In this regard it to be informed that as per the design of IMS, GSTR-2B will not be generated by the system in below scenarios:

i. In case the taxpayer has opted for QRMP scheme (Quarterly filers), GSTR-2B will not be generated for first and second month of the quarter. Ex. For quarter Oct-Dec, 2024, the quarterly taxpayer will get GSTR-2B for December-2024 period only and not for October-2024 & November-2024.

ii. In case the taxpayer has not filed their previous period GSTR-3B, GSTR-2B will not be generated by the system. Such taxpayers need to file their pending GSTR-3B in order to generate GSTR-2B on demand. For example, if the taxpayer has not filed GSTR-3B for September-2024, their GSTR-2B for October-2024 will not be generated. Once the taxpayer files their GSTR-3B for September-2024, they will be able to generate their GSTR-2B for October-2024 by clicking the "Compute GSTR-2B (OCT 2024)" button on the IMS dashboard.

GSTR-2B generation limited where QRMP enrolment or pending GSTR-3B; file returns via IMS dashboard to enable generation. GSTR-2B will not be generated by the Invoice Management System in two situations: taxpayers under the QRMP scheme are not issued GSTR-2B for the first two months of a quarter, and taxpayers who have not filed the immediately preceding period's GSTR-3B will not receive GSTR-2B until they file that pending GSTR-3B and use the IMS 'Compute GSTR-2B' function.
