It is a scheme which provides full relief from pending GST tax demands, including a waiver of interest and penalties. This requires the applicant to meet the specified deadlines.
Eligible applicants must apply for the scheme by June 30, 2025. However, the entire tax demand must have been paid before March 31, 2025, failure to do this will make the taxpayer ineligible for amnesty benefits, even if they apply before June 30.
Some of the key technical problems reported are the unavailability of order numbers in the dropdown menu for selection in SPL-02 and, the failure to auto-populate order details and payment details and make payments using “Payment towards Demand” after filing SPL-02.
1. For DRC-03/DRC-03A-related problems: Taxpayers who face issues in linking payments will have to make a voluntary payment using Form DRC-03 under the category ‘Others’. After this, the form should be submitted for linking the payment with the relevant demand order.
Before submitting the waiver application, taxpayers should check their electronic liability ledger on the GST portal if payment details do not automatically appear in Table 4.
