Pre-deposit payment stay on recovery: electronic ledger payment and undertaking pause recovery until tribunal is operational. If the Appellate Tribunal is not operational, taxpayers can secure a stay of recovery by paying an amount equal to the pre-deposit via Services Ledgers Payment towards demand, which maps the payment in Electronic Liability Register Part II against the selected order, and by filing an undertaking to appeal before the Tribunal when it is constituted. Payments inadvertently made through FORM GST DRC-03 can be adjusted towards the pre-deposit upon filing FORM GST DRC-03A (subject to exclusions where FORM GST DRC-05 has been issued); absence of payment, undertaking, or timely DRC-03A filing permits recovery under the CGST Act.
