@PratibhaGoyal Officers are calling and pressurising taxpayers to deposit money in cash ledger just to meet target, its completely illegal. GST law has no concept of advance tax.

Is this for real?
There nothing like GST Advance Tax as per my understanding!

How will a Director pay 10% pre-deposit, when penalty is imposed on him, and he’s not even registered under GST? 🤯
As From 1 Oct 2025, law is clear 👇
👉 10% pre-deposit is mandatory where only penalty has been demanded without involving demand of tax.(Sec 107(6) of the CGST Act).
And in practice, along with demand on the company,
a separate penalty is often imposed on Directors/Partners for alleged involvement (aid/abetment, etc.)
Now think about this situation:
Penalty is imposed on Directors/Partners, who are:
❌ Not registered under GST; and
❌ Not even liable to take registration
So practically… how the payment shall be done?
I dealt with this recently, and here’s the exact workaround that worked:
👉 Department (of director's residential jurisdiction) can do suo-moto registration
What I did:
✔️ Filed a letter to jurisdictional officer
✔️ Got Temporary Identification Number (TIN)
✔️ Login ID & Password generated
✔️ Paid 10% pre-deposit in Cash Ledger
✔️ Adjusted via DRC-03
✔️ Attached the said DRC-03 with the appeal filed manually
🎯 For the said purpose, I’ve drafted the TIN request letter.
👉 Follow me & DM “TIN”, I’ll share the Ms Word file of the same with you

APL-05 filing before GSTAT requires uploading key documents including SCN, OIO, OIA, statement of facts, and grounds of appeal, along with mandatory pre-deposit and court fee (except where exempted by higher courts).
Certified copies of orders and authorization/vakalatnama must also be submitted.
For departmental appeals, no pre-deposit or court fee is required, and the application must include specified documents and a digital verification.

From February 2026 tax period onwards, the GST portal will auto-populate the “Tax Liability Breakup, As Applicable” in GSTR-3B based on document dates reported in GSTR-1/GSTR-1A/IFF.
Taxpayers are required to open the tab on the payment page and confirm the breakup by clicking “SAVE” before filing GSTR-3B through EVC/DSC.
Until the portal issue is resolved, taxpayers must manually open the tab and save the confirmation to complete filing of GSTR-3B.

⚠️ Paid FULL GST demand 'Under Protest', however the portal still asking for 10% pre-deposit while filing the appeal? You don’t need to pay again.
📌 Many taxpayers & professionals miss this small step.
Example 👇
Demand Order: ₹1,00,000
Taxpayer pays ₹1,00,000 under protest (to avoid future interest).
While filing appeal:
Disputed Amount: ₹1,00,000
Pre-deposit (10%): ₹10,000
➡️ Portal asks to pay ₹10,000 again.
But why pay again if ₹1,00,000 is already paid?
❗Reason: Payment through DRC-03 is not linked with the Demand ID (DRC-07) on the GST portal.
💡 Simple Fix:
File DRC-03A and link the earlier DRC-03 payment with the Demand ID.
Once linked:
✔ Portal considers it as amount paid towards admitted + pre-deposit
✔ Balance payable becomes ₹0
✔ Appeal can be filed without paying the amount twice

CAs or other professionals who are in GST practice, get yourself equipped with knowledge and resources as GST Appellate Tribune (GSTAT) have started functioning in virtual manner. There is huge scope of work, may be not at present but in future. You can tap this opportunity but get yourself prepared. Start reading judgements of various tribunals like ITAT and NCLT so you can get a feel how tribunal benches work.
START BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE.
