In case of discrepancy write to department that you shall ask suppliers to comply. 4.

You may design the below SOP to avoid any interest/ penalty for such mismatches : – Periodically reconcile your Purchase Register with GSTR 2A i.e. monthly/quarterly. – Identify the differences and take below action: (i) Avail any credit of invoices not appearing in PR but filed by Supplier. (ii) Notify Supplier for missing invoices in 2A (iii) Take action on mismatches of tax amount, tax type or invoice No./date.
