GST ITC Reconciliation Online

The Key to GST Tax Savings

Expert GST reconciliation services. We help match your purchase invoices with GSTR-2B, identify missing credits, and follow up with suppliers.

Maximize your tax savings through precise ITC reconciliation. Match your purchase books with GSTR-2B to ensure no tax credit is lost.

Don't leave money on the table. Reconcile your purchase data with the GST portal to ensure you claim every rupee of Input Tax Credit you are entitled to.

Input Tax Credit (ITC) is the backbone of the GST system, allowing businesses to set off the tax they paid on purchases against the tax they collect on sales. However, under current GST laws, you can only claim ITC if your supplier has uploaded the invoice on the portal and it is visible in your GSTR-2B statement.

ITC reconciliation is the process of comparing your internal purchase records with the data provided by the GST portal. Mismatches can occur due to data entry errors, suppliers failing to file returns, or invoices being uploaded against the wrong GSTIN. Without proper reconciliation, you risk either losing tax credits or facing penalties for claiming ineligible credits.

QuickTaxperts provides a specialized reconciliation service, identifying gaps in your data and providing a detailed list of 'Defaulting Suppliers' so you can follow up and secure your tax credits.

These quick answers cover common planning questions before you request a checklist or quote.

• What is GSTR-2B?: GSTR-2B is an auto-generated, static statement that shows the available Input Tax Credit for a taxpayer based on their suppliers' filings.
• Why is reconciliation necessary?: It ensures you don't claim credit for taxes that haven't been reported by your suppliers, which is illegal under GST.
• What is the difference between GSTR-2A and 2B?: 2A is dynamic and changes as suppliers file; 2B is a static monthly statement used for final ITC calculations.
• Can I claim ITC if it's not in GSTR-2B?: As per current rules (Section 16), you can only claim ITC if it is reflected in your GSTR-2B.
• What should I do if a supplier hasn't uploaded an invoice?: You should follow up with the supplier and withhold their tax payment until the invoice appears on the portal.
• How often should I perform reconciliation?: Monthly reconciliation is best practice to ensure accurate filing of GSTR-3B.
• Is there a time limit to claim ITC?: Yes, ITC for a financial year can be claimed only up to the 30th of November of the following year.
