Frequently Asked Questions

I received a DRC-01 show cause notice. What happens next?

You normally get 30 days to reply. A strong first reply - reconciliations, documentary proof and legal grounds - can close the matter at adjudication itself. Send it to us the day you receive it; limitation and personal hearing rights matter.

What is the pre-deposit for filing a GST appeal?

10% of the disputed tax for a first appeal before Commissioner (Appeals), and a further 10% for a second appeal before GSTAT. Filing the appeal stays recovery of the balance demand.

My ITC was denied because my supplier defaulted. Can it be defended?

Often, yes. Several High Court rulings protect a genuine buyer who holds a valid invoice and proof of payment. The defence depends on your documentation - invoice, e-way bill, payment trail and GSTR-2A history.

My goods and vehicle were detained in transit. How urgent is it?

Very - Section 129 proceedings move in days, not weeks. WhatsApp us the MOV documents immediately; release options include bond or payment under protest while keeping appeal rights alive.
