What is a DRC-01 notice?
DRC-01 is the summary of a show cause notice demanding GST, interest and penalty. The reply, hearing and evidence at this stage decide most of the outcome, so it should be prepared before the deadline, not at it.
How do we reply?
We reconcile GSTR-1, GSTR-3B and GSTR-2B with your books and e-way bills, collect supplier evidence, and draft the reply in Form DRC-06 with legal grounds and documents. You are entitled to a personal hearing if you ask for one or if an adverse decision is contemplated (section 75(4)), and no more than three adjournments are allowed.
What if the order goes against you?
The first appeal lies to the Appellate Authority under section 107 within three months of the order, with a pre-deposit of the admitted tax and 10% of the disputed tax. A second appeal lies to the GST Appellate Tribunal under section 112 with a further pre-deposit of 10% of the tax still in dispute. Writ petitions lie to the High Court where a notice or order is without jurisdiction.
