25. What is the Current State?
● 34% Businesses have received notices for shortfall of ~35,000 Cr tax between
return periods of July-December 2017
● Currently GST Authorities have given a timeline of 10 days to justify the
discrepancy or pay the difference
● The law prescribes a 30-day timeline within which taxpayers should file their
replies, but jurisdictional officers are using their discretion to provide timelines
as short as three to five days

26. GST Way forward by GSTN
● Purchaser will not be able to Add / Modify invoices on Supplier’s Behalf !
● ITC can only be claimed if Supplier shows a Sale
● ITC cannot be claimed more than the invoices in GSTR2A

28. Challenges while performing Reconciliation
● Invoice number does not match - seller and purchaser follow a different convention
● Invoice filed with different GSTIN by Purchaser - The purchaser may work in multiple states,
and the seller has raised invoice with another GSTIN/HQ GSTIN instead of the actual purchaser GSTIN.
● Invoice date does not match - date of recording invoices is different at both places.
● Multiple similar invoices between a purchaser and supplier where every invoice is of same value at
different dates and one of the parties has recorded invoices higher than the other.
● Collaboration to Resolve - If there are anomalies detected, it is difficult to collaborate with an
internal/external user to resolve
● The purchaser and supplier have recorded invoices in different return periods
● The invoice value from Supplier and Purchaser differs by a minor value because both parties have
different conventions of rounding off

29. ★ Recon at a multi GSTIN + Business Level
★ Matching Algorithm using Artificial Intelligence
★ Multi Month Reconciliation
★ Custom Configurations for Recon Algorithm
★ Collaboration with Internal & External Users

30. Claim More ITC Avoid Tax Notice
Problem : An Enterprise with a thin profit margin
business is able to claim limited ITC
Solution: ClearTax Reconciliation can enable
the enterprise to:
- Claim ITC from unaccounted suppliers
- Claim more ITC from existing vendors by
comparing invoices
Result: The finance team helped the Enterprise
to claim more ITC, directly delivering more
profits at an overall level in the thin margin
business.
Problem : An Enterprise has received scrutiny
notice following a tax liability mismatch
Solution: ClearTax Reconciliation can enable
the enterprise to:
- Identify defaulter suppliers who do not
report sales to GSTN
- Notify some suppliers to upload correct
invoices for matching liability
- Collaborate to resolve anomalies
Result: The finance team ensured working with
compliant vendors, resulting to avoid a Scrutiny
