The Excel-based GSTR-9 Offline Tool helps taxpayers prepare their GSTR-9 return offline. The tool allows taxpayers to fill in data for various tables in the GSTR-9 return, such as details of outward and inward supplies, ITC availed, tax paid, and demand/refunds. It is not mandatory to fill in all worksheets; empty worksheets can be left blank. Key features include the ability to open a downloaded GSTR-9 JSON file from the GST portal, validate entered data, and generate a JSON file for uploading to the GST portal. Taxpayers can also handle errors by opening the “processed with error” files and making corrections in the Offline Tool.
