Esteemed Sir,

Subject: Request for extension of due date of filing various Return under GST due to COVID – 19

The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) has been proactively supporting the Government by providing suggestions at each stage of development, creating awareness and disseminating knowledge of GST among various stakeholders.

It is evident that the epidemic COVID – 19 (Coronavirus) has affected the entire world including India. Many offices have been closed, while others are working partially. Life has almost comes to standstill, people are afraid of going outside their home. The Word Health Organisation (WHO) has announced COVID – 19 outbreak a pandemic.

30 April

Therefore, we request your goodself to provide appropriate relaxation to the registered person and extend due dates of filing all returns under GST, which fall in month of March and April, 2020 till 30th April, 2020. This would provide needed relaxation to the trade, in combating the circumstances arising out of Coronavirus.

We look forward to a favourable response. For any further clarification on the matter, undersigned ably assisted by CA. Sharad Singhal, Secretary, GST & Indirect taxes Committee may be contacted at gst@icai.in or 0120-3045954 / 9310542608.

Thanking you.
Yours faithfully,
