FAQ :

The GST Appellate Tribunal is a proposed special court designed to handle disputes and appeals related to the Goods and Services Tax (GST).

It is being established to address the growing number of pending GST appeals, which have tripled in recent years, leading to delays in resolving disputes and financial record management.

Experts predict that the tribunal could begin operating in the latter part of this year, after the general elections conclude.

The plan, decided by the GST Council, is to gradually establish benches in different states, with a recent notification outlining the creation of 31 benches across 36 states and Union territories.
