ITC mismatch intimation, DRC-01C reply

What this means, checked by a CA

If the input tax credit you claimed in GSTR-3B is more than what shows in your GSTR-2B, the portal sends DRC-01C and blocks your next GSTR-1 until you reply. We reconcile your credit, reverse or pay what is not eligible through DRC-03, and explain genuine differences such as imports or credit claimed late.
