The GST Network ( GSTN ) has highlighted specific scenarios where the GSTR-2B for October 2024 was not generated, as reported by certain taxpayers.
Below is a summary of the important points in the latest advisory and related advisories:
1. Quarterly Return Monthly Payment (QRMP) Scheme Filers:
– GSTR-2B is not generated for the first two months of the quarter for taxpayers under the QRMP scheme.
– Example: For the quarter October-December 2024, the GSTR-2B will only be generated for December 2024.

2. Pending GSTR-3B Filing:
– Taxpayers who have not filed their GSTR-3B for the previous period will not see GSTR-2B for subsequent months.
– Example: If GSTR-3B for September 2024 is pending, GSTR-2B for October 2024 will not be generated.
– Resolution: File the pending GSTR-3B. Afterward, the “Compute GSTR-2B” feature on the IMS dashboard can be used to generate the missing GSTR-2B.
