Quick Summary
A user is questioning a demand for GST on a turnover difference declared in GSTR-1 versus GSTR-3B, along with interest from October 2017. While the department can typically demand tax and interest, the explanation for Section 75(12) of the CGST Act, which supports this, was only effective from January 1, 2022, and not retrospectively. Therefore, the interest demand for October 2017 may not be applicable. Furthermore, if the turnover difference can be justified or explained, the demand order could potentially be dropped.
Yes As per Explanation under Section 75(12) , department can do so. But as this explanation was Inserted by Finance Act 2021, clause 114 & get effective from 01/01/2022. so the same is applicable on the returns filed from 01/01/22 onwards. (It's not effective retrospective) So in your case the same is not applicable.
Note : Moreover as per the instruction No. 01/2022 GST dtd 0701/2022, if you can able to justify the difference or can explain the difference, the issued order can drop.
