In this tutorial, we will learn how the "Do Not Show Zero Tax Values As Taxable in GSTR3B" feature works during GST Return generation in Logic ERP. This option helps classify transactions with zero GST tax correctly in the GSTR-3B return by excluding them from taxable outward supplies and reporting them under Nil-Rated, Exempted, and Other Outward Supplies.
Properly classify zero-tax transactions in GSTR-3B.
Improve GST return accuracy.
Prevent nil-rated or exempt transactions from being reported as taxable supplies.

"Do Not Show Zero Tax Values As Taxable in GSTR3B"
When enabled, transactions having:

When "Do Not Show Zero Tax Values As Taxable in GSTR3B" is enabled, Logic ERP automatically excludes transactions with zero GST tax from Outward Taxable Supplies and reports them under Table 3.1(c) – Other Outward Supplies (Nil-Rated, Exempted, and Non-GST Supplies) in GSTR-3B.
