Following additional fields have been made mandatory now by ICAI while generating UDIN for GSTR 9C:-
1.Additional GST declared in GSTR 9
2.Additional Interest on account of above accrued to the Government
3.Total ITC Reversed if any

New data asked by UDIN portal for generating UDIN in case of GST Audits.

1. No reference numbers given as to data of which sr no is to be put. If such data is not given, how is user of document expected to match this data to verify UDIN?
2. What is the need to give all of this data when user could have easily matched earlier data and verified UDIN?
3. Sr no 4 asks for data from GSTR 9. CA is certifying GSTR 9c, not GSTR 9, how can such data be asked?
4. There is no field in GSTR 9 which clearly shows Data asked ast Sr no 4 i.e. additional liability. It is merged with the existing data of assessee, so how does ICAI think a user of UDIN will match this data since its nowhere visible?
5. Sr no 5 and Sr no 6: data can be GSTR 9 also and 9C also and both data can be different. No guidance on which data to be used.
