Purchase from e platform without gstin

265 views 3 replies
I have purchased some office materials from Amazon. The seller issued GST invoice by collecting GST for the said purchase. but they have not mentioned our GSTIN on invoice. Please advice how we show the above transaction in GSTR 3B and in which column it shows? The transaction is interstate purchase.
Can I show it as Ineligible input or exempted items

First of all ask Dealer of Amzon to put your GSTN in the Bill, else you won't be able claim ITC.

Else

Book it as expenses & no need to show in 3b
inform them to consider your gst number.

Mr. Pankaj is correct, don't contact Amazon, they cannot help now. Instead, contact the actual dealer/seller directly and request them to add your GSTIN in their sales record and issue you a revised bill. MAKE SURE you are able to see that invoice in your GSTR-2A upon the seller's monthly/quarterly GSTR-1 filing, because many times sellers fail to report subsequently added buyer GSTINs in their GSTR-1 and therefore wrongly show them in B2C sales, in that case, you will have to follow-up with the seller and ask them to reduce(amend) their B2C sales figures in next return and show your invoice in B2B.

Going forward,  you should either convert your existing Amazon personal account to "Amazon Business" or create a new "Amazon Business" account wherein, at the time of sign-up/registration you will be REQUIRED to provide your GSTIN, which Amazon automatically shares with the actual seller for GST billing, upon placing an order.

NOTE: To ensure ITC is available to you, ALWAYS login with your Amazon Business account if you want to place orders for your business.
