Outward supply pertaining to financial year 2020-21 is declared in GSTR-3B during the financial year 2021-22 (before September 2021) and taxes are also paid accordingly. Since taxes are paid during FY 2021-22, these taxes get auto populated in Table 9 of GSTR-9 under the heading Tax Payable and this tax payable is editable. Now, the question is, do we need to edit the tax payable to the extent of the tax pertaining to the financial year 2020-21 declared during FY 2021-22 as we are filing GSTR-9 of FY 2021-22
Our view which is not related to the above question is: Though the tax which pertains to FY 2020-21 but paid during financial year 2021-22 through GSTR-3B which come automatically in table 9 of GSTR-9, the value of outward supply (declared in GSTR-1 of FY 2021-22) does not come automatically in table 4 of GSTR-9 of FY 2021-22. Correct me if I am wrong.

In this case tax payable in table 9 should be reduced to the extent of tax paid of FY 20-21 since it has already been disclosed in the annual return of that year.
