DRC-01B/C self-check + consolidated multi-GSTIN GST

Catch a GSTR-1↔3B liability gap (DRC-01B) or a 2B↔3B ITC gap (DRC-01C) before a notice arrives, and see one consolidated GSTR-1/3B summary across all your GSTINs.

Two of the most common GST notices come from your own returns not agreeing with each other: a DRC-01B when the tax you declared in GSTR-1 is more than you paid in GSTR-3B, and a DRC-01C when the input tax credit you claimed in GSTR-3B is more than your GSTR-2B makes available. Finocket runs both checks on the figures it already builds — so you can spot and fix the gap before the department writes to you.

DRC-01B / 01C self-check

From GST → Returns, open DRC self-check and pick a return month.

  • DRC-01B compares your GSTR-1 output tax with GSTR-3B table 3.1, head by head (IGST / CGST / SGST). Because both sides come from the same books, a month that ties shows a green tick on every head.
  • DRC-01C compares the ITC your GSTR-2B makes available with what you claimed in GSTR-3B table 4. By default it compares the totals; upload the month's GSTR-2B JSON on the same screen for a head-by-head breakdown.
  • A difference beyond ₹1 is flagged; a matched month is all-clear.

The numbers are never invented — every figure is the one Finocket's GSTR-1, GSTR-3B and GSTR-2B builders already produce. This is a self-check on your data, not a return filed with the portal. Verify with your CA and file on the GST portal.

Consolidated GST across your GSTINs

If you run more than one GSTIN (each is a separate company in Finocket), open Consolidated GST to see one GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B summary across all of them at once.

  • Pick a return month; every company you can read appears as its own column, with a consolidated total on the right.
  • The consolidated figure is always the exact sum of the columns shown — toggle a GSTIN off and it drops from the total.
  • It covers GSTR-1 outward tax and the GSTR-3B outward, ITC and net-payable heads.
  • An invited team member only ever sees the GSTINs they have access to.

Frequently asked questions

What is a DRC-01B and a DRC-01C?

DRC-01B (Rule 88C) is the department's intimation when the tax you declared in GSTR-1 exceeds what you paid in GSTR-3B. DRC-01C (Rule 88D) is raised when the input tax credit you claimed in GSTR-3B exceeds what GSTR-2B makes available. Finocket runs both checks on your own figures so you can fix the gap before the notice arrives.

Where do the DRC numbers come from?

From the same GSTR-1, GSTR-3B and GSTR-2B figures Finocket already builds for the month — nothing is invented. If a month's books tie, the check is all-clear; a real gap shows the exact per-head difference.

Does the DRC self-check file anything?

No. It is a read-only self-check on your own data, not a return filed with the GST portal. Verify with your CA and respond to any actual DRC intimation on the portal.

Can I see GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B across all my GSTINs together?

Yes. The Consolidated GST screen shows one GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B summary across your GSTINs, each as its own column, with a consolidated total that is always the exact sum of the columns shown. A team member only sees the GSTINs they can access.
