GSTN enables auto-population of ITC in GSTR-3B

Auto-drafted input tax credit figures now pull directly from GSTR-2B, reducing manual reconciliation for monthly filers.

14 Jul 2026

What changed

The GST Network has rolled out auto-population of eligible input tax credit figures directly into GSTR-3B, sourced from each taxpayer's GSTR-2B statement. Previously, taxpayers had to manually cross-check purchase registers against GSTR-2B before filing.

Why it matters

For businesses with a high volume of monthly purchase invoices, this removes a significant chunk of manual reconciliation work and reduces the risk of claiming ineligible or mismatched credit.

What to check before filing

Even with auto-population, taxpayers should still verify that all eligible invoices from suppliers have actually been reflected in GSTR-2B before the return is finalized, since supplier delays can still cause temporary mismatches.
