GST Payment not reflected in ECL, Goods and Services Tax - GST

[Adarsh Gupta]

The money was deducted from the bank account and the bank had also confirmed the payment. However, the amount is not being reflected in the e-cash ledger. Post raising the grievance on the GST portal, the below mentioned response was received.

"Payment details cannot be updated as your bank has sent incorrect response. Please contact the bank to resolve this."

Kindly suggest for any solution.

It has happened because of technical fault in the functioning of software. Contact the concerned officer of the bank.Your problem will be solved on working day only. Once it happened with my client also and the amount debited from the party's account was credited to Govt. account. on next working day.Nothing to worry.

It is a worrying thing particularly on the last day of filing return. If the tax paid is not appearing in the ledger then filing cannat happen. And next day interest on delayed filing may become applicable. And also a remark of late filer by the auditor.

Yes. Interest has to be paid for the delayed payment as it is not the fault of Common Portal System. To be on safer side, it is better to deposit interest on your own otherwise penalty will be imposed by the department.
