Here’s a helpful reply for your query about RFD-09 document submission:
Dear Ansh,
If you have forgotten to attach a document while filing RFD-09 or if it did not get uploaded due to a technical glitch, but you have sent the document separately via email to the concerned officer, it is generally acceptable provided:
-
The officer acknowledges receipt of the document.
-
The email submission is within the prescribed timeline or before the processing of your refund is completed.
However, there is no formal guarantee that the officer will accept the documents submitted by email unless the department issues a specific instruction or confirms acceptance.
Best Practice:
Follow up with the officer or the refund processing team to confirm if the emailed document is considered for processing. Also, keep proof of your email communication for future reference.
If possible, you can also upload the missing documents through the GST portal if that option is available.
Hope this helps!
Best regards,
[Your Name]
