Prepare and Review GSTR-1

GSTR-1 preparation uses the current sealed snapshot for one GST registration and period. It does not read a changing live report after the period is locked.

Prerequisites

Section titled “Prerequisites”
  • The selected registration is active and valid for the period.
  • The compliance period is Locked with a current, non-stale snapshot.
  • The earlier compliance review has no blockers.
  • You have verified invoice, credit-note, customer GSTIN, place-of-supply, HSN/SAC, UQC, turnover and document-number data.

Prepare the return working

Section titled “Prepare the return working”
Create a GSTR-1 preparation
  1. Open GST → GST Compliance.
  2. Select GST Registration and Review period.
  3. Confirm the period is Locked, then open Returns.
  4. Select GSTR-1 under Return preparation.
  5. Select Prepare GSTR-1.
  6. Review preparation version, snapshot version, outward taxable value, total GST, invoice count, credit adjustment, blockers and warnings.
  7. In Section preview, select Preview for every applicable section and compare it with source evidence.

Know what is included

Section titled “Know what is included”

Current issued/finalized invoices are positive outward records. Supported full credit notes are negative adjustments. Drafts and cancelled invoices are not current outward tax rows. Payment status does not decide whether an issued invoice belongs in GSTR-1.

Yepsta displays only applicable or blocked sections from the current supported preparation:

  • B2B invoices for taxable invoices with a customer GSTIN;
  • B2C Large and B2C Other according to place of supply, value and the rule applicable to the document date;
  • Registered credit/debit notes and Unregistered credit/debit notes as section labels, with the current business sales workflow contributing supported credit notes;
  • HSN/SAC B2B summary and HSN/SAC B2C summary;
  • Nil, exempt and non-GST summary only when the required supported classification exists; and
  • Documents issued for traceable invoice and credit-note series.

The current customer transaction workflow does not provide a published export/SEZ outward-supply preparation flow. Do not assume that choosing a registration type creates those return sections.

Review the preparation

Section titled “Review the preparation”

Compare each section’s documents, taxable value, CGST, SGST, IGST and cess with the locked evidence and your approved working papers. HSN/SAC checks confirm numeric format and required length, not the legal correctness of a code.

If Blockers is greater than zero, select Review issues. A preparation with blockers cannot generate a package. Warnings should still be reviewed and documented.
