The payment of tax component using credit ledger and interest using cash ledger in DRC-03 is acceptable, as per GST guidelines.
¹ When filing DRC-03, you can utilize the available balance in the Electronic Credit Ledger to pay the tax component.
However, interest and penalties must be paid in cash, using the Electronic Cash Ledger.
In your case, since you've already paid the tax component using the credit ledger and interest using the cash ledger, the department should accept it.
If there's an error or discrepancy in the already adjusted tax amount in DRC-03, you may need to consult with a tax professional or contact the GST department directly to determine the best course of action.
*Possible Outcomes:* - __Refund__: If there's an excess payment, you might be eligible for a refund. - _
_Amendment__: You might be able to amend the DRC-03 form to correct any errors or discrepancies. -
__Rejection__: In some cases, the department might reject the DRC-03 form if there are significant errors or discrepancies.
To ensure the correct outcome, it's recommended that you consult with a tax professional or seek guidance from the GST department.
