GST Update on difficulty in updation of Electronic Cash Ledger on 20.09.2021
A few taxpayers have reportedly faced difficulty in the updation of their Electronic Cash Ledger on September 20, 2021 while filing their GSTR-3B returns. To mitigate their difficulties, GSTN has been directed to take up the issue of waiver of late fee and interest for one (1) day for such taxpayers, before the IT Grievance Redressal Committee.
Advocate Manoj Agarwal Commented on above Tweet from CBIC that “Giving instructions to GSTN isn’t enough, in my view you need to issue a notification for Extension even if for a single day.
Mr. Vipul Singh Tweeted that “What a great relief by granting extension of 1 day !!! Failures & difficulties of portal gets Auto-relief. But genuine difficulties by businesses ignored & taken in harsh way by levying Interest, Late fees, Penalties-even natural & medical issues not appreciated.”
