Time Limit For Reply in regards to DRC -01A

6477 views 8 replies
I have received intimation via DRC -01A on 31/12/2023 in which Officer has mentioned that reply should be filed by 01/01/2024.

What is time limit for reply as per GST rules?

Quick Summary
There is no specific time limit prescribed under GST law for replying to DRC-01A Part B. The time is decided by the tax officer. However, giving only one day to reply is considered unreasonable. The 30-day limit applies to DRC-01 SCN replies, not DRC-01A.

Please check out the time limt in the same window of DRC-01A

Intimation under DRC 01A is optional. There is no minimum time limit to give reply in Part B of DRC 01A as per GST Act & Rule. Its totally depends on the tax officers that how much time they want to give for part B submission.

Please correct me, if i am wrong

As per recent court ruling, minimum 30 days is to be granted to reply to a SCN. Also, I agree with Raja P M sir

Reply to SCN is different from reply in part B of DRC01A. DRC 01A is a pre action prior of issuing SCN.

As per Act, minimum time limit for reply of SCN is 30days

For Drc 01A , no specific time limit.

For Drc 1 , it's 30 days.
Though there is no time limit specified in law for replying to DRC01A, it is completely unreasonable and illogical to allow only one day.

Taxpayers must respond to DRC-01C within seven days of being notified, detailing their reasons and making payments. Unresponsive taxpayers risk having their GSTR-1 filings blocked and receiving a demand notice under the CGST Act.
