GST DRC-01C

🚨 Important GST Update: Addressing ITC Mismatch 🚨

Dear GST Taxpayers,
We bring to your attention a crucial update regarding Input Tax Credit (ITC) compliance. The GSTN (Goods and Services Tax Network) has introduced an automated intimation system in Form GST DRC-01C, empowering you to explain differences in ITC between GSTR-2B and GSTR-3B.

Key Points:
1. Automated Intimation Feature: GSTN has rolled out an automated intimation system, accessible on the GST portal. This functionality is designed to address disparities between ITC available in GSTR-2B and the ITC claimed in GSTR-3B.

2. Understanding the Comparison: The system compares ITC declared in GSTR-3B/3BQ with ITC available in GSTR-2B/2BQ for each return period. If claimed ITC in GSTR-3B exceeds the available ITC in GSTR-2B beyond defined limits, an intimation in the form of DRC-01C will be issued.

3. Action Steps: Upon receiving an intimation, respond promptly using Form DRC-01C Part B. You have the flexibility to provide payment details for settling the difference via Form DRC-03, offer an explanation, or choose a combination of both.

4. Consequences of Non-Response: Failure to file a response in Form DRC-01C Part B may result in restrictions, preventing affected taxpayers from filing subsequent period GSTR-1/IFF.
