Through this notification, there are two sub-rules inserted, namely, Sub-rule (1A) and Sub-rule (2A) under Rule 142 of the Rules. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As per new rules, the officer under Section 73(1) or Section 74(1), before charging the Show Cause Notice (SCN), is mandated to showcase the details of the demand as mentioned in Part A of the DRC-01A form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>DRC-01<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This form entails \u201cSummary of Show Cause Notice.&#8221; Any officer can upload this electronic credit ledger following the provisions of rule 100(2) and rule 142(1)(a) of the Rules. It represents a summary of notice issued under Section 52, Section 63, Section 73, Section 74, Section 122, Section 76, Section 123, Section 125, Section 124, Section 129, Section 127, and Section 130. As notified on 29<sup>th<\/sup> March, 2019, the old format of DRC-01 is being replaced with a new format. This is, however, effective from 1<sup>st<\/sup> April, 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>DRC-02<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This form denotes &#8220;Summary of Statement.&#8221; After issuance of the Show Cause Notice following Section 73(1) or Section 74(1), if any officer is willing to note details of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/payments\/failure-to-pay-penalty\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">unpaid taxes<\/a> or might be short-paid under the same circumstances but maybe for any other prescribed period, then a statement can be issued under Section 73(3) or Section 74(3) of the Act. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That statement summary is usually uploaded electronically in this form. Just like the DRC-01 replacement with a new format, the DRC-02 form was also replaced and a new form was introduced, which came into effect on April 1st, 2019 as mentioned under Notification No. 16\/2019-Central Tax, with the date of March 29th, 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>DRC-03<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The DRC-03 form denotes &#8220;Intimation of payment made voluntarily or against SCN\u2014show-cause notice or statement.&#8221; The most frequently used DRC form that taxpayers have filed in majority to date in the GST regime is the DRC-03 number. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As stated under Rule 142(2) and Rule 142(3) of the Rules, the payment of taxes made either voluntarily, during serving notice, before the <a href=\"https:\/\/fynk.com\/en\/blog\/commencement-date-meaning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">commencement of service<\/a>, or after receiving the show cause notice or statement with DRC-01 and DRC-02, respectively, is carried out mostly through the DRC-03 form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Considering the time limit for filing Form DRC-03, Rule 142(3) mentioned some specific time limit within which payment can be processed smoothly to complete the proceedings. For making any voluntary tax payments through the DRC-03 form, you can complete making payment at any time before issuing SCN or the required statement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, after the issuance of the SCN or statement under Section 73(1) or 73(3) of the Act, payment of taxes can be completed within 30 days of the issue of the SCN. There is no imposition of penalty from the corresponding officer, and the proceedings come to an end. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, for a show cause notice or statement issued under Section 74(1) or 74(3), a penalty of 25% of the tax demanded is charged. This amount is, however, payable only if the DRC-03 balance is filed within 30 days from the date of issuance of notice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>DRC-04<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This demand form entails &#8220;Acknowledgement of acceptance of payment made voluntarily.&#8221; Following rule 142(2), the proper officer after receiving the payment done through DRC-03, issues an acknowledgement slip stating the acceptance of payment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This kind of acceptance is, however, usually carried out through this form only. Waiting for any proper officer to acknowledge the <a href=\"https:\/\/business.adobe.com\/blog\/basics\/understanding-payment-process\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">payment process<\/a>, however, doesn&#8217;t restrict any taxpayers from processing another payment through DRC-03.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>DRC-05<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" src=\"https:\/\/piceapp.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/What-Is-Form-DRC-05-in-GST.png\" alt=\"What Is Form DRC-05 in GST?\" class=\"wp-image-56681\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/piceapp.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/What-Is-Form-DRC-05-in-GST.png 900w, https:\/\/piceapp.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/What-Is-Form-DRC-05-in-GST-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/piceapp.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/What-Is-Form-DRC-05-in-GST-150x84.png 150w, https:\/\/piceapp.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/What-Is-Form-DRC-05-in-GST-768x432.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This form displays &#8220;Intimation of the conclusion of proceedings.&#8221; The officer issues this form after being satisfied with receiving voluntary payment details from the registered taxable individuals following provisions of Rule 142(3) of the Rules, stating further details regarding the closing of proceedings initiated by the officer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>DRC-06<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This form is regarding \u201cReply to the Show Cause Notice.&#8221; Following Rule 142(4), the taxpayers can file this form in reply to the issuance of SCN and the summary uploaded in DRC-01 electronically. However, if there are situations where a taxpayer prefers a personal hearing, it will be feasible to communicate it to the adjudicating authority through the DRC-06 form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>DRC-07<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The DRC-07 form is all about stating \u201cSummary of the Order.&#8221; Following Rule 142(5), an officer uploads this form electronically once and after completing issuance of the final order under Section 52 or Section 63 or Section 62 or Section 64 or Section 73 or Section 75 or Section 76 or Section 123 or Section 122 or Section 124 or Section 125 or Section 129 or Section 127 or Section 130 under the Act. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The amount of tax paid considering the interest and penalty is mentioned in detail in this form. Upon submission of the DRC-07 form to the GSTN through an API, a demand ID is created and listed under the Liability Register Part II (other than returns relating to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gktoday.in\/what-are-demand-liabilities-and-time-liabilities\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">demand liabilities<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>DRC-07A<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This demand form entails a &#8220;Summary of the order creating demand under existing laws&#8221;.
