I received a GST DRC-01 notice. What is being alleged, what dates matter, and what evidence should I prepare?

DRC-01 is the summary of a show cause notice that proposes a demand of tax, interest and penalty. Read the notice itself, not only the summary: it states the tax periods, the grounds (for example a mismatch between GSTR-1, GSTR-3B and GSTR-2B, ineligible input tax credit or short payment) and the amounts. Dates that matter: the reply deadline stated in the notice; whether the notice was issued within the time limit under section 73 or 74 (for periods up to 2023-24) or section 74A (from 2024-25); and the date of any earlier DRC-01A intimation. Prepare a reconciliation of the department’s figures with your returns and books, invoices and payment proof for each disputed item, and earlier correspondence. File the reply in Form DRC-06 and ask for a personal hearing; tax you accept can be paid through DRC-03 before the order.

GST DRC-01 Notice Reply in Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu

DRC-01 notices to Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu-based GSTINs (state-code 26 (post-merger consolidated)) are the primary trigger for Section 73 (non-fraud) or Section 74 (fraud) demand proceedings. Appellate route: GSTAT state bench, with cross-cutting income-tax interactions escalating to ITAT Mumbai (Surat / Vapi cases routed).

The economic mix of Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu runs across tourism (Diu coast), textile processing, electronics — sectors that consistently dominate the regulatory case-load and the profile of the engagements we field from this jurisdiction. Notable industrial enclaves include DNH SEZ Silvassa, Daman Industrial Estate. On the AD-Bank side, HDFC and Axis at Silvassa/Vapi cover most FEMA-CG; Mumbai AD branches anchor complex ECB and ODI.

The merged DNH-DD UT (effective 26 January 2020) inherited a manufacturing density rare for any UT — Silvassa and Vapi together host one of India's largest plastic-processing clusters, and the legacy area-based excise regime built deep multinational FDI presence.

Distinguishing Section 73 vs 74 — Penalty Differential

Section 73 notices (non-fraud) cap penalty at 10% with interest at the statutory rate; Section 74 (fraud) extends limitation to 5 years and imposes 100% penalty plus the principal demand. For Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu-based taxpayers, the section-categorisation contest is often the most consequential first-line defence.

Common DRC-01 Allegations in Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu

Recurring DRC-01 themes for Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu-based GSTINs in plastics & polymer (Silvassa-Vapi belt) and textile processing: ITC denial under Section 16(2)(c) / Rule 36(4) mismatch, classification disputes, RCM short-payment, e-way bill non-compliance, and SEZ/EOU zero-rated documentation gaps. Each carries a distinct evidentiary defence.

Pre-Show-Cause vs DRC-01A vs DRC-01 — Stage-Wise Strategy

Our practice negotiates substantive defence at the DRC-01A stage where applicable to cap exposure before formal demand crystallises.
