Filing of GSTR 3 B – Really taxing times
As we are all aware the due date for filing of the return in Form GSTR 3B for July 2017 is only 20th August, 2017 except for those opting to avail of transition credit by filing Form GSTR TRAN-1.
The due date of filing of return for those availing of transition credit is extended to 28th August, 2017 subject to filing of GSTR TRAN-1 before filing of GSTR 3B. However the tax payable net of transition credit is to be paid by 20th August, 2017.
It is expected that modified Form GSTR 3B with provision to report transition credit would be made available. It is possible that the transition credit availed in GSTR TRAN-1 may have to be filled in or would get auto populated in Form GSTR 3B based on GSTR TRAN-1 filed.
We understand that once submitted Form GSTR 3B cannot be amended or edited. Therefore, please take care to validate data before submitting the return.
For those who could have made mistakes, here is the tweet that “errors and omissions can be shown in the next month’s return”
Clarifications required on GSTR TRAN-1
It is not clear at this point of time if filing of Form GSTR TRAN-1 would be available more than once. i.e. whether Cenvat Credit carried forward can only be availed now and VAT Credit carried forward may be availed later and whether other tables like details of statutory forms received for which credit is being carried forward and Details of goods sent to job-worker and held in his stock on behalf of principal under section 141 and details required in other tables of GSTR TRAN-1 are to be filed now.
The concern is whether all applicable tables in Form GSTR TRAN-1 is required to be filled in at one go before filing GSTR 3B. This is required to be clarified by the authorities urgently.
For those opting to file Form GSTR
TRAN-1 is advisable that details of all tables in GSTR TRAN-1
be kept ready before opting to avail of transition credit.

Transition Credit in GSTR-3B
Since there is no separate field / column in GST Return Form GSTR-3B for claiming of transition credit, there had been doubts on whether transitional credit can be claimed and adjusted against the tax payable for July, 2017 and August, 2017.
It now learnt that modalities for claiming of transitional credit in Form GSTR -3B would be notified and that GST Form TRAN-1 and GST Form TRAN-2 would be enabled for filing by 21st or 22nd August.
It is likely that the tax payers would be required to pay the tax due net of transitional credit by 20th August, 2017 and the period for filing of Form GSTR -3B for those availing transition credit would be extended by a week.
We shall update soon after the official notification is published.
