A number of modifications to CBIC’s current return have been reported in Form GSTR-3B. The form used by the government to collect tax from its citizens is called Form GSTR-3B.

  • The CBIC has included a new table 3.1.1 in which taxpayers must disclose information on supplies made through e-commerce operators (ECO), if such ECO is subject to reverse charge
  • Table 4 has also been modified, specifically parts B and Part D deals with reporting of ITC that does not affect ITC eligibility, while Part B deals with ITC reversal.

The CBIC has suggested making some changes or disclosures in the GST filings to improve taxpayer convenience. Additionally, the CBIC has suggested that a separate amendment table in GSTR-3B be included to show the modifications that taxpayers have made to GSTR-1, which lists all of a business’s sales.

Summary of Proposed GST Return Changes

GSTR-3B is adding a new Table 3.1.1 where both registered people and electronic commerce operators (ECO) can report.
