GSTIN Suspended Form GST Reg 17

191 views 2 replies
My client received SCN on 17th Jan 2025 in FORM GST REG -17 stating that your registration is liable to be cancelled for the following reasons: 1) Rule 21(e)-person avails ITC in violation of the provisions of section 16 of the Act or the rules made 1. thereunder.
But, in SCN details related to alleged violation have not been provided.
I have replied online and offline both but didn't receive any response from the officer. GSTIN is still under suspension.
Pls advise

Your client's GSTIN suspension is likely due to the alleged violation of Rule 21(e), which pertains to availing Input Tax Credit (ITC) in violation of Section 16 of the CGST Act or rules.¹ Since the Show Cause Notice (SCN) lacks specific details about the violation, it's essential to seek clarification from the tax officer. Given that you've already replied online and offline without receiving a response, consider the following steps: - *Initiate Drop Proceedings*: If your client's GSTIN was suspended on or after December 1, 2022, you can initiate drop proceedings on the GST portal. This facility allows taxpayers to restore their suspended GST registration or GSTIN. - *Reach out to the Tax Officer*: Try to establish direct communication with the tax officer to understand the specific reasons for the SCN and GSTIN suspension. This will help you address the concerns and provide necessary documentation. - *File a Representation*: If the tax officer doesn't respond, consider filing a representation to the higher authorities, explaining the situation and requesting clarification on the SCN. Keep in mind that the suspension of GST registration can be revoked after the completion of GST registration cancellation proceedings.² It's crucial to resolve this matter as soon as possible to avoid any further complications. Would you like me to provide more information on the GST registration cancellation proceedings or the representation process?

Sir, please provide information regarding the representation process
