Facts
Without your GSTIN the supplier reported it as a B2C sale, so it cannot reach your GSTR-2B. Ask the supplier to amend it in GSTR-1 or GSTR-1A as a B2B invoice with your GSTIN.
Provisions and law
- Sec 16(2)(aa), CGST Act 2017ITC is allowed only if the supplier has reported the invoice in GSTR-1 or IFF and it is communicated to the recipient.
- Sec 31(1), CGST Act 2017A registered person supplying taxable goods or services must issue a tax invoice with the details prescribed.
- Rule 36(4), CGST Rules 2017ITC can be taken only on invoices and debit notes furnished by suppliers in GSTR-1 or IFF and communicated in GSTR-2B.
Analysis
Your credit depends on the invoice reaching your 2B. The supplier can correct the B2C entry to B2B through an amendment, and a revised invoice should show your GSTIN. Once it appears in 2B, claim it in that month. Give your GSTIN on every purchase order to avoid this.
Conclusion
- Share your GSTIN and the invoice details with the supplier.
- Ask them to amend the entry to B2B and issue a corrected invoice.
- Check your 2B in the following months.
- Claim ITC once it appears.
