Answer: As per Section 77, to rectify this situation you will have to pay correct tax i.e CGST + SGST and get the refund of IGST earlier paid.

Further it also specifies that Interest is not liable on the payment of CGST and SGST.

You can make correction in invoice in rectification column of GSTR-1 of any tax period but not later than due date of September month GSTR-1 or date of furnishing of annual return, whichever is earlier.

In the same way recipient can make rectification in the corresponding GSTR-2. (Reply dt. 05/4/2018)
