Exciting updates await in G9 for the fiscal year 2022-23, aiming to streamline and improve the GST filing process for increased efficiency. Here’s a snapshot of the key modifications:
- Negative Values in Table 17 & Table 18: Taxpayers can now report negative values in Table 17 and Table 18 of GSTR-9, providing flexibility for adjustments to previously submitted figures.
- Rs. 10 Round-off: Figures in Table 17 and Table 18 of GSTR-9 can now be rounded off to the nearest Rs. 10, simplifying reporting and minimizing discrepancies.
- Optional HSN Code Reporting: For those with nil liability in GSTR-9, reporting an HSN code is now optional, easing the reporting burden when no tax liability is present.
- CGST and SGST Validation: The system validates that CGST and SGST amounts are equal for editable fields in GSTR-9, ensuring accuracy and compliance in tax reporting.
- Taxes Paid Validation: In Table 14 (excluding interest), the system validates that taxes paid align with the positive net liability reported in Table 10 and Table 11 of GSTR-9, fostering consistency between tax payments and reported liabilities.
These changes signify a positive stride toward a more user-friendly, accurate, and compliant GST filing process. Staying informed and adapting to these updates is crucial for businesses to ensure a seamless and hassle-free tax filing experience.
