Quick Summary
This discussion addresses a common issue where an auditor intends to qualify a GST audit report due to unpaid interest on late GST liability payments for FY 2017-18. The auditor believes interest should have been paid via DRC-03, even if no notice has been received from the department. The advice given suggests paying the interest to secure a clean report, as the auditor faces professional misconduct risks if they overlook it. An alternative suggestion is for the auditor to note the late filing as an observation rather than a qualification.

The interest of 18% p.a is applicable for late payment of liability. If the auditor doesn't mention the same in his report, he's into the risk of getting into trouble under professional misconduct.
So it's better to pay off the interest via DRC-03, and he would give clean report.
But sir we are ready to pay interest when we will get notice from department

therefore instead of quantifying interest he can mention in the certification as observation that gst 3B return of fy 2017-18 in Jun 18
