DRC-03 filed against the Demand order, Goods and Services Tax - GST

[Praveen Lakshmi]

Hi everyone,

I have inadvertently filed DRC-03 against the demand order. Later I came to know that the payment was to be made via "Payments towards demand".

Whether the payment made through the DRC-03 will be considered? What would be the consequences and rectification options available to us?

Please assist

What is purpose and 'remark' you have mentioned on said Form DRC-03?

I assume that the officer had created summary of demand in DRC-07 and instead of paying in DRC-07, you have paid in DRC-03.

You may kindly write to the officer about this. But you will face difficulty while filing appeal online, as appeal form is mapped to DRC-07 payment.

Alternatively, you can pay again in DRC-07 and file for refund of payment made in DRC-03 if the amount is not big.

Rightly advised by Sh.Padmanathan Kollengode Ji. Common Portal System will not accept the payment made via DRC-03 for the purpose of filing appeal.

Thanks for the input.

I spoke with a few GST officers as well. One suggested that until the tax is remitted there won't be any issue. Another GST officer stated that a letter was to be submitted, stating that we have wrongly remitted the tax in DRC-03.
