🚨 Received a GST Notice? Read This Before You Reply
A GST notice is not just an email or portal message.
It is a legal proceeding under GST law.
Yet most businesses make a fatal mistake:
“Let me reply quickly and close it.”
❌ That single reply—if wrong—can result in:
Heavy tax demand
ITC reversal
Penalty & interest
Registration cancellation
Prolonged litigation
👉 GST notices don’t need panic. They need legal strategy.
That’s where Leegal comes in.
🏢 Why GST Notices Are Increasing Rapidly in India
With advanced data analytics, GST departments now track:
GSTR-1 vs GSTR-3B mismatches
ITC differences in GSTR-2B
High turnover fluctuations
E-way bill vs GST return mismatch
GST vs Income Tax inconsistencies
Most notices are system-generated, but replies are legally evaluated.
💡 Automation issues the notice. Law decides the outcome.
