Fetch GSTR-2B from GSTN
Pull the auto-drafted GSTR-2B from the GST portal for any month into ThynkTax for reconciliation against your purchase register.
Fetch GSTR-2B from GSTN
GSTR-2B is the auto-drafted input tax credit statement generated by GSTN on the 14th of every month, based on what your suppliers filed in GSTR-1 / 1A.
When 2B is available
- Generated on the 14th of every month for the previous tax period
- For QRMP (quarterly) taxpayers, also generated on the 14th of the month following the quarter
- Once generated, it does not change - even if suppliers amend their filings later (those changes flow into the next 2B)
Pull 2B into ThynkTax
GST → Reconciliation → New → 2B vs PR
- Choose client + period
- Click Fetch 2B from GSTN
- OTP - if this is the first 2B fetch this session, GSTN sends an OTP to the client's registered mobile. Enter it.
- The fetch takes 10-30 seconds. Once done, the 2B appears alongside your Purchase Register for the same period.
What 2B contains
- B2B invoices - accepted by your suppliers in their GSTR-1
- CDN - credit notes / debit notes
- ISD - input service distributor credits
- Import of services
- Import of goods (from SEZ)
What 2B does NOT contain
- Invoices your suppliers haven't filed yet → these show up only in 2A (the live mirror)
- RCM (reverse charge) self-invoices - those are in your own books, not 2B
- ITC on advance receipts
After fetching
Move to Run 2B vs Purchase Register reconciliation to match the two sides.
