Say Goodbye to GST Mismatches – Go Audit-Ready with TallyPrime

In the ever-evolving landscape of GST compliance, managing Input Tax Credit (ITC) accurately and being audit-ready at all times is crucial for every business. One small error in recording or claiming ITC can lead to mismatches, unnecessary notices, and even penalties. For businesses using an IMS (Inventory Management System), it's critical that their software offers powerful features to monitor and reconcile ITC while maintaining complete GST compliance.

TallyPrime, the latest and most advanced version of Tally, is built to address exactly these challenges. With features tailored for seamless GST tracking, ITC reconciliation, and efficient audit preparation, TallyPrime is not just accounting software—it’s your business compliance partner.

Why ITC Accuracy Matters

Input Tax Credit is the backbone of the GST system. It allows businesses to reduce the tax they pay on sales by claiming credit for the tax paid on purchases. However, with the government tightening compliance norms and auto-generated GSTR-2B becoming the source of truth, businesses can no longer afford to manually reconcile their ITC.

Key challenges in managing ITC:

• Invoices not reflecting in GSTR-2B
• Incorrect or delayed data entry
• Supplier-side non-compliance
• Mismatch between books and portal data
• Errors in HSN/SAC and GSTINs

These issues not only impact working capital but also increase the risk of audit complications. Businesses need a system that proactively tracks ITC eligibility, flags mismatches, and ensures timely reconciliation.

TallyPrime – Your Compliance Champion

TallyPrime has been enhanced to offer unmatched capabilities to manage GST compliance, especially in the area of ITC tracking and audit preparedness. When integrated with your IMS or used as a complete ERP, it provides the clarity, control, and confidence businesses need.

Here’s how upgrading to TallyPrime helps you stay audit-ready:

1. Real-time ITC Tracking

TallyPrime ensures every purchase entry with GST is correctly recorded, and the system automatically computes eligible and ineligible ITC based on rule-based configurations. You can see the breakup of ITC under CGST, SGST, and IGST, ensuring no eligible credit is missed.

2. GSTR-2B Reconciliation

One of the most powerful features in TallyPrime is its GSTR-2B reconciliation module. It allows you to import the GSTR-2B JSON file from the GST portal and automatically matches it with your books.

• Mismatch highlighting: Tally flags invoices not present in 2B, mismatched GSTINs, invoice numbers, or tax amounts.
• Smart actions: Accept, reject, or mark invoices for further review.
• Adjustment tools: Create reversal or reclassification entries easily.

3. Audit Dashboard

TallyPrime provides an Audit Dashboard that summarizes compliance risks, exceptions, and open mismatches. This helps businesses address issues proactively before audits or monthly GST filings.

• View pending ITC mismatches
• Identify returns with missing data
• Detect duplicate or backdated entries

The dashboard acts as a single window to monitor GST health and take preventive action.

Additional Features that Simplify Compliance

✔ GST Returns Made Easy

Generate GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, GSTR-9, and GSTR-2B reports with complete accuracy. TallyPrime also supports HSN-wise summary, input/output tax reports, and more—all in formats acceptable for filing.

✔ Auto ITC Classification

TallyPrime allows rule-based tagging of expenses and purchases as eligible/ineligible ITC. For example, ITC on car purchases, staff welfare, or blocked credits can be auto-categorized and excluded from credit claims.

✔ Seamless Integration with IMS

If you're using a third-party IMS for inventory tracking, TallyPrime can integrate or import data from it. This ensures consistent data between your IMS and books, avoiding mismatches during ITC calculation.

✔ Drill-down Reports for Auditors

When an auditor reviews your books, they can drill down from summary reports to invoice-level details. TallyPrime ensures all your GST data is structured, traceable, and exportable.
