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.

Dehradun hosts the Selaqui industrial estate (pharma & FMCG anchor), the Forest Research Institute, and serves as the administrative capital of Uttarakhand. The High Court of Uttarakhand at Nainital and ITAT Dehradun bench operate within reach. Dehradun's IT Park at Sahastradhara Road houses TCS Mussoorie Diversion, IT cluster employers.
The economic mix of Dehradun runs across automobile component (Pantnagar — Tata Motors, Bajaj Auto), pharmaceuticals (Haridwar SIDCUL, Selaqui, Pantnagar), FMCG (Hindustan Unilever, ITC, Dabur — Haridwar SIDCUL) — sectors that consistently dominate the regulatory case-load and the profile of the engagements we field from this jurisdiction. Notable industrial enclaves include Bhagwanpur IIE, SIDCUL Industrial Areas (Pantnagar, Selaqui, Haridwar, Sitarganj). On the AD-Bank side, Dehradun, Haridwar and Pantnagar host the principal AD-I corporate desks; HDFC, ICICI, Axis at Haridwar handle the FMCG/pharma FEMA workload.
Uttarakhand's SIDCUL Pantnagar/Haridwar zones (legacy of pre-2010 area-based excise) still anchor a major FMCG and pharma cluster; combined with no Professions Tax, that drives sustained Tier-1 FDI.

Recurring DRC-01 themes for Dehradun-based GSTINs in pharmaceuticals (Haridwar SIDCUL, Selaqui, Pantnagar) and automobile component (Pantnagar — Tata Motors, Bajaj Auto): 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.
