Frequently asked questions

I received ASMT-10 for ITC mismatch. What is it?

ASMT-10 is a scrutiny notice issued when the ITC you claimed in GSTR-3B exceeds what is reflected in GSTR-2A. It requires a detailed reconciliation reply to avoid a formal tax demand.

The officer is demanding tax under Section 74 (fraud). Is it serious?

Yes. Section 74 carries a 100% penalty. We immediately evaluate if the invocation of 'fraud/suppression' is legally valid, as officers often misuse it for extended limitation periods. We frequently get this downgraded to Section 73 (normal short payment).

Can you help with GST registration cancellation notices?

Yes. If your registration is suspended/cancelled for non-filing, we file the pending returns, pay the late fees, and apply for Revocation of Cancellation (REG-21).
