Hi My name is Manan Mehta Chartered Accountant working at Jhandlewalan.
I had filed ST-1 of my client last Wednesday and got ST2 certificate on Thursday. I send my article on friday to submit the documents at the I.P Division,Mahatma Gandhi Marg but no body was bothered to take the documents there and send back my article by saying "Aj sahab nh aye hain, jab ayenge tab lenge documents" and rudely behaved with him.
I want to ask,
1. Although as per the act , we can send the documents to the division by registered post/speed post as well, SO CAN WE REALLY SEND THE DOCUMENTS BY THIS WAY WITHOUT GETTING MY CLIENT'S ST-2 AFFECTED??
2. Who is more liable for the ST2 documents?? Is it more of a liability of the deptt to take the documents or liability of assessee to send it ??

Department have right to cancel ST-2 if documents are not submitted within 30 days. However you can send documents by Registered Post A.D. and get an acknowledgement. This may not affect client as department cannot exercise this right of cancellation if all documents are in order.

Yes sure! Even I am in practice. Acknowledgement will be small card signed by consignee. Indian speed post will deliver this card to you once courier is delivered.
