How does LEDGERS auto-populate GSTR-1?

Every sales invoice you create in LEDGERS is automatically categorised into the correct GSTR-1 table - B2B (Table 4), B2C Large (Table 5), B2C Small (Table 7), credit/debit notes (Table 9), exports (Table 6), and HSN summary (Table 12). No manual data entry or re-keying needed.

Can I amend a previously filed GSTR-1?

Yes. If you discover errors after filing, LEDGERS lets you create amendment entries that flow into the next period's GSTR-1 amendment tables (Tables 9A, 9B, 9C). The original and amended values are tracked side by side for full audit trail.

Does LEDGERS support the QRMP scheme for GSTR-1?

Yes. If you are on the Quarterly Return Monthly Payment (QRMP) scheme, LEDGERS compiles three months of invoices into a single quarterly GSTR-1 while supporting monthly Invoice Furnishing Facility (IFF) uploads for B2B invoices.

How are B2B and B2C invoices classified?

B2B invoices are those issued to GST-registered buyers (with GSTIN). B2C invoices go to unregistered buyers. LEDGERS automatically classifies them based on whether a GSTIN is present on the customer record and further splits B2C into Large (inter-state above ₹2.5 lakh) and Small.

What is the HSN summary and is it mandatory?

The HSN summary (Table 12) groups your outward supplies by HSN/SAC code with quantity, taxable value, and tax amounts. It is mandatory for businesses with turnover above ₹5 crore (6-digit HSN) and above ₹1.5 crore (4-digit HSN). LEDGERS auto-generates this from your invoice line items.

What is the due date for filing GSTR-1?

For monthly filers, GSTR-1 is due by the 11th of the following month. For quarterly filers under QRMP, it is due by the 13th of the month following the quarter. LEDGERS shows your filing calendar and sends reminders before each deadline.
