ALL  MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL

 

                                        

 

 

Dear Members,

 

As you are aware, there  has been delay in processing/ credit of  IGST refund  on account of   non-transmission of data from GSTN to customs.

 

One of the most common errors have  been  that total IGST  payable is not specified correctly under Table 3.1(b) of GSTR 3B.  It is either incorrectly mentioned under Table 3.1(a) or Table 3.1(c) of GSTR 3 B. Table 3,1(a) pertains to domestic supplies and Table 3.1(b) pertains to exports.

 

Similarly, IGST submitted under Table 3.1(b) of GSTR 3 B is less than total IGST, payable through export invoices specified under Table 6A of GSTR 1 of that tax period.   These errors  have led to IGST validation failure on ICEGATE as data has not been transmitted from GSTN to  ICEGATE.

 

As per updates on Ahmedabad Customs House Portal,    the  Joint Secretary (Customs), CBEC has issued letter dated 28/03/2018 to the  field formations  giving clarifications  in this matter and possible resolutions.     The mechanism for resolution of this  problem will involve deputation of GST Field formations at customs houses for verification and scrutiny.

 

Members are requested to take  note/ go through  the letter and approach their  respective customs location for resolution, accordingly.

 

For further details, this letter is available for download using below link on Ahmedabad Customs House-

Thanking You,

 

Yours faithfully,
