E way bill missing

871 views 7 replies

we have despatched stocks worth of 384245/- where e way bill was missing. due to technical reasons the e way bill was not prepared. the other goods in the consignment had eway bill. The transported goods are cigarettes.

the goods were detained and we were given a demand of 216127/- as CGST+SGST +CESS+ Additional cest and 216127 as penalty totalling to 432254/- .

We paid the total amount and released the goods.

We reported the above sale in our regular sales for the month and adjusted the above tax amount of Rs.216127/- towards the tax liablity. the penalty of Rs.216127/- is still undadjusted in our ledger.

Now we are getting an order online  under DRC07 stating  that we have to pay 432254/- . we are informed that the penalty of 216127/- can be adjusted against this and we will have to pay the tax of Rs.216127/ - again

they inform that the tax we have already paid on this will be a blocked credit

In this case total tax and penalty payable will be 648381/- against an invoice value of Rs.384245/-

can anybody advise

First ensure which amount adjusted in gstr 1 and 3b only use (gst tax paid amount don't utilise penalty) submit DRC-03 challan and explain its not a credit its sa paid as sa tax liability (not an blocked credit) even he not stasfied go to appeal (even we will be paid additional liability in DRC -03 we already paid early)
You are supposed to file DRC 03 for Rs. 432254/- (It's 100% of Tax amount)

The penalty now is 200% of GST amount. And it has to be paid by cash. It cannot be adjusted with the actual tax. Therefore in totality on a sale where goods have been detained due to absence of eway bill you pay 300% (Tax + 200% penalty). Pay against demand standing in DRC-07

Yes  as replied .... earlier (before 01/01/2021)  it was Tax + 100% penalty means you were liable to pay 432254/- &  need to setoff by filing DRC -03. additional it Rs.216127/- need to declare in return.

Now as per Finance Act 2021, clause 117 being notified & e.f. 1/01/2022 vide Notification 39//2021 ct , section 129 (1)(a) of cgst Act being amended & now t the penalty is 200% of TAX, means the Tax is 216127/- you need to pay 432254/- as penalty only

So there is no change in amount demanded only Statue has being changed.

Actually this pertains to 25-3-2019. Hence the new rule of 200% should not apply

More Over we are not able to file grc 03 because it is more than a month

Dear Anand

as replied above the amount Rs.432254/- need to be deposited even before amendment.this amount need to pay in cash ledger & then you will able to file DRC-03

Note :

1.Rs. 216127/- already being adjusted & paid in Returns filed

2.Rs. 432254/- need to pay in cash

In that case the tax paid on detention will get refunded. You will have to apply for refund
