You can now deposit remaining tax liability in cash ledger.
Further, you can correct your mistake while filing GSTR-1 and at that point of time you can set-off excess liability with applicable interest on late payment.

If you have already filed GSTR-3B for a particular month and now realize that there is an excess tax liability that was not paid, you can follow these steps to rectify the situation:
### Steps to Pay Excess Tax Liability:
1. **Calculate the Excess Liability:**
- Determine the exact amount of excess tax liability that needs to be paid. This should be based on your correct tax calculations considering all taxable supplies, input tax credit (ITC), and applicable tax rates.
2. **Prepare Payment:**
- Ensure you have the necessary funds available to make the payment. You can pay through the GST portal using the available payment options (Online Payment, NEFT/RTGS, Over-the-Counter Payment, etc.).
3. **Generate Challan:**
- Go to the GST portal (https://www.gst.gov.in/) and log in using your credentials.
- Navigate to the 'Services' > 'Payments' > 'Create Challan' option.
- Enter the amount of excess liability under the appropriate tax heads (CGST, SGST/UTGST, IGST, and Cess).
4. **Make Payment:**
- Select the payment mode (Net Banking, Debit/Credit Card, NEFT/RTGS, Over-the-Counter Payment).
- Follow the instructions to complete the payment process and generate the challan.
5. **Adjustment in Next GSTR-3B:**
- In the next GSTR-3B filing:
- Declare the actual tax liability under the correct heads and show the payment made against the excess liability.
- Utilize the excess amount paid earlier (if any) against the current month's liability.
6. **Interest and Penalty:**
- If there is any delay in payment, interest may be applicable on the outstanding amount as per the GST rules.
- Ensure timely compliance to avoid penalties.
7. **Reconciliation:**
- Keep records of the payment made and reconcile it with your GST returns and books of accounts to ensure accuracy.
### Important Points to Note:
- **Correct Tax Payment:** It's crucial to ensure accurate tax calculation and timely payment to avoid such situations. Regular reconciliation of your tax liabilities with your business transactions can help prevent errors.
- **Filing Amendment:** If the excess liability was due to an error in reporting, you may need to file an amendment return (if permissible under GST rules) to correct the previous GSTR-3B filing.
- **Consultation:** For complex situations or doubts, it's advisable to consult with a GST professional or tax advisor who can provide guidance tailored to your specific circumstances.
By following these steps, you can address and rectify excess tax liabilities in GST effectively and ensure compliance with GST regulations.
