Context: Circular 237/31/2024-GST provides certain benefits related to Section 16(4) (time limit for ITC availment).
You have an appeal rejection order but no option is showing to file rectification against it.
Also, for the original order, the portal dropdown says “no data found” for rectification or new appeals.
Explanation: No Rectification Option for Appeal Orders Generally, the GST system does not provide a direct rectification mechanism against appeal orders. Rectifications are mostly allowed against original orders (assessment, demand, etc.), not appellate orders.
Rectification Against Original Order If the portal shows “no data found” for original orders, it could be due to:
The order not being in the system yet or incorrectly uploaded.
Technical issues or delay in data sync on the GST portal.
You may not have selected the correct order type/date etc.
Benefit of Circular 237/31/2024-GST
This circular may allow re-opening or ITC claims outside the normal time limit.
If the system does not allow rectification, a manual application or representation may be required.
Suggested Actions: Check Portal Details:
Ensure you are selecting the correct GSTIN, financial year, order number, and date.
Clear cache or try another browser.
Contact GST helpdesk for technical support.
File a Fresh Appeal or Revision:
If rectification is not available, consider filing a fresh appeal if time permits.
Mention the Circular 237/31/2024-GST benefit in your submissions.
Write to Jurisdictional Officer:
Send a letter/email to the GST officer explaining the issue.
Request manual rectification or clarification on the benefit under the circular.
Legal Recourse:
If still stuck, approach the Appellate Authority or GST Tribunal with a detailed submission referencing the circular.
