Due date for furnishing GSTR-3B for April 2022 extended till May 24, 2022
During the last few days, there were technical glitches seen in the GST portal due to which the Form GSTR-2B for the month of April 2022 could not be made available on time i.e. 14th May 2022 to a large number of GST filers. It is evident that GSTR-2B is a very crucial document (form) for deriving the amount of admissible GST input in a particular month. In absence of GSTR-2B, such GST filers were not able to upload their return in Form GSTR-3B.
An advisory was also issued for such GST filers where it was advised to such filers to use Form GSTR-2A for the filing of Form GSTR-3B for the month of April 2022. Now, the CBIC has come out with a Notification extending the timelines for filing Form GSTR-3B for the month of April 2022 to grant relief to such GST filers who were otherwise not able to upload their GST return in Form GSTR-3B.
Accordingly, the CBIC has issued Notification No. 05/2022- Central Tax dated May 17, 2022, extending the due date for furnishing of Form GSTR-3B for the month of April 2022 till May 24, 2022. The Notification can be accessed at: https://egazette.nic.in/WriteReadData/2022/235799.pdf
