  • Incorrect or wrong entry in the e-invoice
  • Mistakes in e-invoice
  • Duplicate entry and so on.

To overcome such situations, a provision is provided to the taxpayer to cancel the invoice reference number (IRN). E – Invoice Format In GS

The only alternative that can be used is to cancel the IRN generated with incorrect data in all those situations that involve e-invoice modification. You need to cancel the e-invoice produced with incorrect details in simple words. Record a new invoice with the correct information later, and upload it to create a new IRN. Note, you cannot use the same invoice amount, it should be a new number and more importantly, cancellation is permitted before 24Hrs from the time IRN is produced.

Debit Note and Credit Note

Beyond the time limit to cancel e-invoice, you need to use the debit note or credit note to nullify the invoice information. Next, record a new invoice and generate fresh IRN.

Modification in GST Portal

Modification cannot be done on the IRP but necessary changes for the invoice details reported on the IRP can be done through the GST portal while filing GSTR-1. Since the IRP systems are interconnected with the GST system, as soon the e-invoice is generated, the details of invoice will be auto-populated in GSTR-1 which can be modified.

The above are the options that can be used to modify the e-invoice. Based on the nature of modification and situation, you can choose any of the option to modify the e-invoice details.

Q 1) Can IRN/e-invoice be deleted or modified?

The IRN cannot be changed or removed once it is created. However, if an IRN with incorrect data is produced, it can be cancelled. Once cancelled, the same invoice (with the same number) for the IRN generation cannot be registered again. The cancelation must be achieved within 24 hours of the generation time.

Q 2) What should I do If there is a mistake or incorrect data entry in the e-invoice?

If the e-invoice contains an error, an incomplete or incorrect entry, it cannot be edited or corrected. Canceling the invoice/IRN and uploading a new invoice (with a new number) and creating a new IRN is the only option.

Q 3) Can I partially cancel the e-invoice?

E-Invoice/IRN can’t be partially cancelled. It must be fully cancelled within 24 hours from the time of IRN generation.
