GSTR-2A Reconciliation

GST reconciliation primarily involves matching the data uploaded by the suppliers with those of the recipient's purchase data. This basically includes comparing the GSTR-2A auto-populated from suppliers data and the purchase data recorded by the receiver of the supplies.

Importance of reconciling under GST

​

It is very important to reconcile GST returns data because of the following reasons:

1. As per new GST returns, the taxpayers can only claim ITC if the particular invoice is present in the GSTR-2A / supplier’s data. Therefore, all businesses need to reconcile and claim ITC correctly.
   
2. If the vendor declared his GST liability, and the purchaser has not availed the credits in GST returns. Then the credits would be lost on those invoices. So, it is best to do data reconciliation on a regular basis so that you won’t lose the ITC claim. This reconciliation process will ensure no ITC loss on any invoices.
   
3. To avoid duplication, taxpayers must consolidate and reconcile the values. This will ensure the correct declaration and maximize the credit of input taxes.​
