Dear Sir,

Thanks for the reply, but i am already mentioning the same notification nu which you have told ie 6/2005 -st, but still my E-returns status is rejected and the reason is if no abatement notification no /sl no is slected then abatement amount claimed should be Zero.

 

Kindly suggest.

You have to mention notification no 05/2012-ST dated 17-03-2012 in the return.

Since you have claimed abatement for GTA, the relevant Notn applicable for GTA to be mentioned and not the Not 6/2005.  From the drop box menu, GTA notification that can be selected in Not 13/08. Pl show the same and your Return will be accepted

E-return rejection resulted from incorrect or omitted abatement notification on an ST-3 return claiming abatement for BAS, TIC and GTA. The electronic validation requires selection of the specific abatement notification applicable to the service head; if no notification is selected then any abatement claimed must be zero. The filer must select the GTA-specific abatement notification from the return drop-down so the return will be accepted.
