rectification application after filing of appeal

[SUSHIL BANSAL]

Dear experts,

In one of our case we have filed appeal but now the portal not permitting us to file rectification application.In the FAQ it is written that after filing of appeal, rectification application cannot be filed.I did not find any such provisions in GST law.Plz guide how to file rectification application.The time limit of 3 months is still available.

Parallel proceedings on the same subject is not permitted under the Act. Both appeal under Section 107 and rectification under Section 161 have different objects and requirements to be established on record. You need to choose one of these two at a time depending upon the merits of your case factually and legally.

Yes, Sir. There is no disharmony between both Sections. No overlapping. It is implied that both options are not available to the tax payers. We cannot get every thing pre-cooked from the law-makers. Here we ourselves have to take the decision No legal benefit is possible by contesting on the basis of "parallel proceedings".

Hence I fully agree with your understanding the contents of both Sections and interpretation thereof.

The query is regarding rectification of the appeal submitted? or rectification or order?

If you are talking about rectification of something thatyou have already submitted in appeal papers, then make additional submissions. if portal  not accepting then file it manually iwth dated acknowledgment.

AI Summary

GST Law: Rectification and Appeal Cannot Be Pursued Simultaneously; Manual Submissions Possible for Document Corrections A user inquired about filing a rectification application after submitting an appeal under the Goods and Services Tax (GST) framework, noting that the portal disallows such filings post-appeal. Experts responded that parallel proceedings are not permitted under GST law, as appeals and rectifications serve different purposes and must be pursued separately. One expert suggested that if rectification is required for documents submitted in the appeal, additional submissions can be made manually with acknowledgment. The consensus was that both processes cannot be simultaneously pursued, and decisions must be made based on the case's merits.
