Tax and books
GSTR-1 from your own invoices
MatruOS builds the month's GSTR-1 file from the invoices you have already made, so nothing is typed in twice.
What this solves
Month end becomes a scramble for the CA
Sales, purchases and payments are kept in different places, so the CA rebuilds the month before filing, and errors surface as mismatches and notices.
Every invoice, bill and payment posts to the books and the GST figures as it is saved. The GSTR-1 file and the month's summary are ready from your own records.
Returns are prepared from figures that already agree, so the CA's work is review, with nothing to enter again.
What goes into the file
Figures your buyers will recognise
Because the return is built from the invoices themselves, it carries the same figures your buyers see in their GSTR-2B once you file.
Before you or your CA file
Review the month's GST summary and the GSTR-1 file; your CA files it on the portal. Check due dates with your CA. This is general information, not tax advice.

Questions
Questions people ask
Does MatruOS file GSTR-1 on the portal for me?
MatruOS prepares the GSTR-1 file from your invoices. Filing on the GST portal is done by you or your CA.
What is B2CS?
B2CS covers sales to unregistered buyers that are reported in summary, grouped by place of supply and tax rate, in place of one line per invoice.
My CA uses MatruOS too. Does that help?
Yes. A CA firm on MatruOS can add your business as a client with its GSTIN and track GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B on its filing board. See the CA filing board.
Where do export invoices go?
Export invoices are made in MatruOS with place of supply 96 and IGST. Ask your CA how they are reported in the month's return for your business.
