Dear sir Penalty for non-compliance and Waiver of the same

Non-generation of dynamic QR codes for invoices issued by a registered person to unregistered persons with effect from 1st October 2021 by companies having an annual turnover in excess of ₹500 Crores could now attract penalty under section 125 of CGST Act, 2017.

However, videNOTIFICATION NO. 28/2021 – Central Tax dated 30-06-2021, the Government has waived such penalty for non-compliance between the period from 01.12.2020 and 31.09.2021.

I agree with the view of Ms. Shilpi mam.
