THE SOUTHERN GUJARAT COMMERCIAL TAX BAR ASSOCIATION, SURAT
REPRESENTATION FOR EXTENSION OF DUE DATE FOR FILING OF ANNUAL
RETURN IN FORM GSTR-9, 9A, 9B AND AUDIT REPORT IN FORM GSTR-9C.
“REPRESENTATION”
There is sufficient cause and need for the extension of filing of Annual Forms GSTR-9, 9A, 9B and 9C for a reasonable period of time to give justice to the correctness of returns, considering the need for reconciliations state-wise. The reasons for the request are as outlined below:
We have written to your good selves many times populating issues and possible solutions. Herein, we are representing before your good selves the difficulties and hardships faced by the trade, industries and consultants at large due to delay in enabling GST Annual & Audit related returns, requirement to file state-wise Audit and GST reconciliations for all taxpayers.
GST has been a bold and epic reform of the Government, implementation of which had taken a decade to reach a logical implication; and naturally this introduction had its fair share of issues on trade and companies due to capacity constraints of GSTN IT infrastructure and various other issues, which required incessant changes of forms, procedures, compliances etc. Since, it was unable to introduce in lucid manner, it has a tumultuous impact on reconciliation of accounts for corporate and other bodies. This has continuously percolated and intruded into time required for GST as well as other compliances and has continued a chain reaction of effect.
Also, unless proper reconciliation is affected, it could be a matter for extended litigation later-on to the un-reconciled returns and/or qualified Audit Reports by auditors if proceeded as It were. It may also give rise to corruption. The reconciliation element possibly arises partly due to the niggling issues in GST and loose ends therein pursuant to delayed corrections / submissions from suppliers of goods and services for genuine reasons, onslaught of financial difficulties having cumulative bearing on compliances.
Without proper reconciliation and audit reports, even Revenue would face its fair share of difficulties to rely up on the inputs thrown from audit and it may lead to prolonged litigation, which could be mitigated by an appropriate changes, simplification and extension. We are listing following points to justify the need of extension.
- The formats prescribed for GST Annual Returns and GST Audits are not only voluminous but confusing as well. The confusion all the more rises when GST Portal itself malfunction giving two information from the same source of data.
- Auto populated data of 3B in GSTR 9 differs from the actual data uploaded in monthly GSTR 3B. This type of technical errors happens on both side i.e. outward supply as well as inward supply.
- GST website is passing through numerous technical glitches nowadays. The issue is persisting since more than 10 days.
- The error “Received But Pending” appears as and when we try to upload GSTR 9C.
- We are unable to upload JSON file in One attempt. It requires multiple attempts to upload the same. It kills time.
- GSTR 9C latest utility 1.6 is made available on 08/01/2020 only. The time left after this is very short.
- GST Portal is having multiple issues with OTP sending. We are not getting OTPs on Domains. Even on Regular E-Mails, OTP is coming after 2-3 hours which is of no use. It gives frustration and anxiety to filers.
The ground realities mentioned above emerge from the communications received by the professionals from the entities, companies, management and other stakeholders and the same being sought herein for redressal through your august office. Your goodself is requested to make the GST Portal error free and Extend the due date of Annual returns and Audit of 2017-18 upto 31/03/2020.
Thanking You.
Yours Faithfully,

I Think Govt. should be withdraw GSTR9 & 9C, while we have given every details of invoices in regular GST return GSTR1 ,so why need annual return
GST Portal is having multiple issues for filing Annual return please due date extend 31/03/2020
GST annual return due date should be extended because a lot of error is exist in monthly return such as GSTR-1 & GSTR-3 its to difficult to reconcile.
Please extend due date for filling annual return of GST 9 related to f.y 2017-18 to 31-03-2020
Firstly Govt. should provide facility to file returns and withdraw late fee. The Govt. should charge interest on Net Tax Payable. Govt. is too late to provide facility, hence charging of late fee has no justice. If Govt. has dedication go through right way, will lead people to healthy taxation. Govt. Should consider the grievance of people including small traders, they are the strength of the economy.
1) Make it compulsory for the GST registered dealers to properly file the GSTR1 return for F Y 2017-2018. Open one last time the said facility by setting a dead line. But before setting the deadline please ensure and see to it that the web site works perfectly. And match all the data of GSTR1 GSTN wise with the output and input amount via well developed software. This will reduce the work for all and save lot of time and energy. Then depending on the outcome of the exercise decide the further action. There is no point in asking for extension of date now n then. set it at rest once for all. Say the entire process to be completed by 30.04.2020. Once the system is in place set the deadline for F Y 2018-2019. ~~ But in my view forget about the audits for F Y 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 by doing the above exercise. In the meantime simplify the compliance procedure from 01.04.2020 and setting the portal free from major glitches. By setting right one glitch the side affects are many. They should be well taken care. It should be robust. ~ Hope some one will look into the matter positively in interest of one n all. Thanking you in advance.

EXCELLENT REPRESENTATION
No matter how many times due date is extended…it is in vain….Extension is not the solution…but upgrading the GST website with least possible errors is..Extension is not for us but for the Government so that they can get some free time to focus on the Technical issues the businessman and professionals are facing with the portal and fix them…If everything is fine then why the hell we will ask for extension as we are ready to work day n night….we have been doing Income tax audits from many years but never asked for any extension (expect in few cases) because of the efficiency of the Income tax website….finally DON’T COME TO INEVITABLE CONCLUSION THAT WE INDIANS ARE ALWAYS BUSY IN MAKING EXCUSES WITHOUT KNOWING THE CONTEMPORARY ISSUES THE PROFESSIONALS ARE FACING.
