What is GSTR-1 Reconciliation?
We all know GSTR-1 is a statement of all outward supplies that should be filed by all normal and casual registered taxpayers on a monthly or quarterly basis (depending on the turnover of the business).
GSTR-1 reconciliation is the matching of the data in your GSTR-1 return form and your book of accounts, performed at regular intervals to ensure that your returns are in sync with your books.
