In December 2022, GSTN issued an notification (Notification No. 26/2022 – Central Tax dated 26th December 2022) about changes in E-Commerce transactions. As per this notification, two new tables are added in GSTR1, Table 14 and Table 15.

Table 14 is for Suppliers who sell through E-commerce operators. They need to show their transactions in this table.

Table 15 is for E-commerce operators; they need to show their sales in this table.

Below are more details about this notification and its impact in GSTR1 reporting:

Scenario/Table  Description  Meaning of change  Change in GSTR1 reporting 
Supplier is not selling through E-commerce operator      No change 
Table 14 (a): Supplier is selling through E-commerce operator and Supplier is liable to pay tax as per Section 52  Sec 52 e-commerce transactions are currently getting reported in tables 4 to 10 and they will remain as is. But now along with this, suppliers also need to provide aggregate values in Table 14 (a)  In case the sale through E-commerce operator is as per Section 52, Supplier is liable to pay tax in GSTR3B. E-commerce operator will only deduct TCS. In this case supplier need to show the details in Table 4 to 10 and in Table 14 (a).  Invoice level format: 
      Along with E-commerce GSTIN the section is to be mentioned in the new column. If nothing is mentioned in this column then default value Sec52 will be considered. 
      IRIS will populate values in GSTR1 as required by GSTN. 
      Aggregate format: 
      i) For Table 4 to 10, details to be provided in invoice level format of regular transactions 
      ii) For Table 14 (a), details to be provided in the new format (GSTR 1 5) 
      Note: Any amendments in Table 14 to shown in aggregate format. 
Table 14 (b): Supplier is selling through E-commerce operator and E-commerce operator is liable to pay tax as per Section 9(5)  Sec 9(5) e-commerce transactions suppliers need to report directly in Table 14 (b).  In case the sale through E-commerce operator is as per Section 9(5), E-commerce operator is liable to pay tax in GSTR3B. E-commerce operator will not deduct TCS. In this case supplier need not show the details in Table 4 to 10. He only needs to show details in Table 14 (b).  Invoice level format: 
      Along with E-commerce GSTIN the section is to be mentioned in the new column. If nothing is mentioned in this column then default value Sec52 will be considered. 
      IRIS will populate values in GSTR1 as required by GSTN. 
      Aggregate format: 
      i) For Table 14 (b), details to be provided in the new format (GSTR 1 5) 
      Note: Any amendments in Table 14 to shown in aggregate format. 
Table 15: For E-commerce operator if sale is as per Section 9 (5)  E-commerce operators need to report sec 9(5) e-commerce transactions in Table 15.  If the sale through E-commerce operator is as per Section 9 (5), then the details of registered and unregistered sales both need to be shown in GSTR1 by E-commerce operator. Also, E-commerce operator is liable to pay tax in GSTR3B.  IRIS has introduced two new formats (GSTR1 6 and GSTR1 6a) for providing details at the invoice level and another is for providing details at an aggregate level. 
  Here recipient is registered then details need to be provided at invoice level and if the recipient is unregistered then values need to be provided at an aggregate level    Kindly note that Amendment values for Table 15 where the recipient is unregistered need to be provided in aggregate format only. The system will not calculate aggregated amended values. 

 

Other Impacts of these changes are as follows:

  • Auto computes Table 3.1.1. of GSTR 3B is now possible
  • In GSTR 2B, new Ecom sections are introduced.
