GST Dashboard provides complete overview of GST related information for the financial year for a particular GST number.

With these tables one can easily compare whether the data as per books (table reflecting the data as per books fetched by software) and data as filed with GSTN (data as manually filled by the user as per form GSTR 3B) is matching or not. One can easily observe from here itself the month-wise difference (if any) for each of the component.
