One of the changes proposed in the budget vide Section 101 & 102 of the Finance Act. 2021 is deletion of sub-section (5) of Section 35 of the CGST Act 2017 and substitution of Section 44 of the CGST Act 2017. Before this amendment was proposed, it was mandatory for every registered person whose Aggregate turnover exceeded Rs. 2 Crores in a financial year to get his accounts audited as specified under Section 35(5) of the CGST Act 2017 and furnish a Reconciliation Statement (GSTR-9C) duly certified by a Practicing Chartered Accountant or Cost Accountant. However as per proposed amendment as mentioned above, going forward this Reconciliation statement is expected to be self-certified by the registered person, thereby obliterating the requirement of certification on the veracity of the same by practicing Chartered Accountants or Cost Accountants.
