1. As on 08.06.2025, a total of 3,02,658 waiver applications have been filed through SPL-01/ 02. However, it has come to notice that certain taxpayers are facing difficulties in filing amnesty applications under Section 128A on the GST portal. In view of the approaching last date for submission, various trade bodies have submitted representations requesting an alternate mechanism to facilitate filing.

2. In view of the above, taxpayers who are facing technical issue which is restricting them to file waiver application are advised to adopt the steps outlined in the below link:
