Recording GST Advance Payments under Reverse Charge

When advance is paid for goods/services attracting reverse charge and an invoice is not recorded against the advance in the same period, the taxable person has to pay tax on the amount of advance paid. Over a taxable period, keeping track of the advance paid and creating tax liability for such an amount will be a difficult task. Similarly, keeping track of the purchases recorded against advance paid in the previous period for the purpose of reversing the tax liability can also be daunting.

Note: Reverse charge on purchase from unregistered dealers has been suspended till 31.03.2018 . To support this calculation of tax liability for reverse charge on URD purchase has been disabled in Release 6.1.1 . An option Enable tax liability on reverse charge (Purchase from unregistered dealer) is provided in Company GST Details screen to activate the tax liability for reverse on URD purchase whenever it is re-introduced.

From Release 6.1.1 , the purchase from URD transactions will be treated as exempt transactions in GSTR-2 and journal vouchers recorded for tax liability will be under Not relevant for returns .
