10 June 2022 Sir

We have downloaded the GSTR1 offline tool from GST portal -> Downloads. After installing the application, we imported the excel file ( Excel file downloaded along with utility ) and created the JSON file. But, while we upload the same in the GST portal, we are getting error message, asking us to use the latest version of the offline tool. The version of the offline tool, which we have downloaded is V3.1.4. Is this the latest version ? If not, what is the latest version and how to download it ? Pls. advice.

With Regards.

09 July 2024 As of July 2024, the version of the GSTR-1 offline tool you are using (V3.1.4) may not be the latest version. It’s possible that the GST portal has released an updated version.

### Steps to Ensure You Have the Latest Version:

1. **Visit the Official GST Portal**:
- Go to the GST portal: [https://www.gst.gov.in/](https://www.gst.gov.in/)

2. **Navigate to Downloads**:
- Go to the "Downloads" section.

3. **Check for the Latest Version**:
- Look for the latest version of the GSTR-1 offline tool. The version number and release date should be mentioned.

4. **Download and Install**:
- Download the latest version of the GSTR-1 offline tool.
- Uninstall the current version you have (V3.1.4).
- Install the newly downloaded version.

5. **Recreate the JSON File**:
- Import your Excel file into the latest version of the offline tool.
- Create a new JSON file.

6. **Upload the JSON File**:
- Upload the newly created JSON file to the GST portal.

### Additional Tips:
- Ensure that your system date and time settings are correct.
- Clear your browser cache and cookies before attempting to upload the JSON file again.
- If the problem persists, check the GST portal for any notices about recent updates or known issues with the offline tool.

### Contact Support:
If you continue to face issues, you may contact the GST helpdesk for further assistance. They can provide specific guidance or support if there are any ongoing technical issues with the portal or the offline tool.
