    1. Hi Mr. Tandel

      You can raise a complain on GST portal about this error. Also, you may try generating json file again and check. kindly see if there is any specific pattern of missing bills. Similarly, it might be possible due to some data entry error but portal is not throwing error while processing it. Therefore, one must check the data before filing the return manually.

      regards
