Following are certain inclusive list of amendments that can still be made in GSTR-1 of March 2019:
  • If you have made mistake in reporting export with payment of Taxes and as a result of which, IGST refund has not been received, then you might need to amend your export details in Table 9A of GSTR-1
  • If recipient of goods or services is not able to find details of sales invoice by his supplier in his GSTR-2A, then, there might be chances that supplier have filed GSTR-1 wherein he has shown sales in B2C but it was actually B2B sales, in such cases amendment of B2C is required and also you have to upload the bill in B2B afresh.
 
2. GSTR 3B RELATED ADJUSTMENTS IN MARCH GSTR 3B RELATED TO ANY PREVIOUS MONTHS -  If mistakenly nil or wrong or incomplete GSTR 3B is uploaded for any previous months, then you can adjust +/- differences in March GSTR 3B , so that , your GSTR 3B can match with books of accounts which is very important while filing annual return.

Last date for availing credit for financial year 2017-18- The last date for availing of credit for the financial year 2017-18 is the due date of filing of GSTR 3B return for the month of March 2019.
