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.
Which section is your notice under?
For periods up to FY 2023-24, demands are raised under section 73 (no fraud) or section 74 (fraud, wilful misstatement or suppression) of the CGST Act, 2017. From FY 2024-25 both are replaced by section 74A: the notice must be issued within 42 months of the due date of the annual return and the order within 12 months of the notice, extendable by up to six months.
Under section 74A, a non-fraud demand attracts a penalty of 10% of tax or ₹10,000, whichever is higher, and no penalty if tax and interest are paid within 60 days of the notice.
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.
