DRC-01B under Rule 88C is about output tax: liability in GSTR-1 is higher than in GSTR-3B. DRC-01C under Rule 88D is about input credit: ITC in GSTR-3B is higher than in GSTR-2B. Both need a Part B reply and both block GSTR-1 if ignored.

Provisions

Rule 88C, CGST Rules 2017; Rule 88D, CGST Rules 2017; Rule 59(6), CGST Rules 2017

Analysis

It is possible to receive both for the same month, for example if you under-reported sales in GSTR-3B and over-claimed ITC. Handle them separately with separate DRC-03 payments if needed. Since GSTR-3B liability is now auto-filled and locked, DRC-01B is less common, but DRC-01C remains frequent.
