It enhances the accuracy of the data entered in the form, minimising the chances of rejection of the GST returns filed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Usually, tax authorities carry out these audits based on the documents and relevant information the taxpayers provide. Different types of audits are available under the GST Act, for different kinds of assessments of the GST returns filing, ensuring maximum accuracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Types of Audits under GST<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Listed below are some of the popular types of audits available under the GST Act:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Types of Audit and Special Audit under GST\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LMQP9_tl_Js?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Departmental Audit<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a type of routine audit by tax authorities that they conduct regularly to ensure appropriate calculation and discharge of<a href=\"https:\/\/www.investopedia.com\/terms\/t\/taxliability.asp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> tax liability<\/a>. As per Section 65 and Rule 101(3) of GST Audit Rules, the commissioner, assistant commissioner or a person whom a registered person appoints is solely responsible for conducting this audit. Primarily, they review the books of account and records of the GST-registered person to ensure accuracy and compliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Departmental GST Audit is usually conducted at the registered office or registered business place of the concerned person. The GST-registered person is notified 15 days before the date of audit and is completed within 3 months from the commencement date. However, tax officers are allowed to exceed this duration in certain cases but it should not go beyond six months of the audit period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the examination of records is completed, the authorised officer needs to present their deductions to the concerned person within 30 days. If they conclude that the GST-registered taxpayer is at fault such as wrongly availing ITC, they can take strict action against the latter as per Section 73 and Section 74.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Statutory Audit<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a special type of audit that taxpayers with an annual turnover of more than \u20b92 crore need to go through. According to Section 35(5) of GST Audit Rules, they must hire a professional chartered accountant to audit their GST returns and account books. Once done, the taxpayer can submit the reconciliation details using the GSTR-9C form. Venture owners must conduct this audit type annually and file the same accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Special Audit<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Any authorised officer can demand this audit type at any <a href=\"https:\/\/www.collinsdictionary.com\/dictionary\/english\/scrutiny\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">stage of scrutiny<\/a>, inquiry or investigation. The officer can request this type of audit if they doubt the correctness of turnover declared or if taxpayers have availed credit beyond normal limits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Rule 102 and Section 66 of the GST Audit Rule, the authorised officer hires a CA or CMA depending on the complexity of the business to conduct this investigation type. The registered dealer will have to fill out Form GST ADT-03, mentioning the direction of the audit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the officer issues this type of audit, the venture owners must hand over the necessary documents to the CA to seamlessly conduct the examination. Once the scrutiny is done, they will need to present their findings to the commissioner in Form GST ADT-04.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Venture owners must conduct it within 90 days from the passing of such order as per the specified norms. However, they must note that the commissioner is responsible for paying the overall expenses for conducting special audits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"4\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Limited Scrutiny<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a very specific type of audit that tax officers instruct the venture owners to conduct when they suspect non-compliance with the provisions of GST. The primary objective of this audit type is to check if the owner is undertaking the entire process as per the GST norms. In this audit, the CA usually examines the accuracy of payment of tax, the correctness of the tax returns filed and compliance with other GST law provisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"5\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Taxpayer-Initiated Audit<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>This is another type of GST audit that a taxable person can initiate to verify if they are complying with all the provisions as per the GST laws. They check if the taxes are paid on time, the returns have been filed accurately and the provisions of GST are adhered to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taxpayers need to keep a thorough record of their business transactions in the form of receipts, invoices, and other documents. This helps them file tax returns on time to avoid the payment of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.collinsdictionary.com\/dictionary\/english\/hefty-penalty\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hefty penalties.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Importance and Benefits of Different Audits Under GST<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/piceapp.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Importance-and-Benefits-of-Different-Audits-Under-GST-1024x576.png\" alt=\"Importance and Benefits of Different Audits Under GST\" class=\"wp-image-14404\" style=\"aspect-ratio:16\/9;object-fit:cover\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/piceapp.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Importance-and-Benefits-of-Different-Audits-Under-GST-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/piceapp.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Importance-and-Benefits-of-Different-Audits-Under-GST-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/piceapp.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Importance-and-Benefits-of-Different-Audits-Under-GST-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/piceapp.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Importance-and-Benefits-of-Different-Audits-Under-GST.png 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The availability of different types of audits under GST offers various advantages to a taxable person as well as tax authorities.

Some of the important accounts and records for review include the stock register, sales register, input tax credit availed and utilised, purchase register and expenses ledgers, e-invoices and IRN, e-way bills, output tax payable and paid and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 3: Filling out the GST Audit and Annual Returns<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have chosen the account type, you can proceed with filing annual returns and GST audits. There are different GSTR forms such as 9, 9A, 9B and 9C, that you will need to fill accurately based on the conditions that you fulfil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 4: Reviewing the Comments by GST Auditor<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After filing the GSTR, the auditor will report if there are any pending tax liabilities by the taxpayer. This ensures that there is complete transparency and no discrepancies in the tax filing later on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 5: Submitting the GST Audit and Annual Returns<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After the CA certifies the accuracy of the GST audit, you can submit the GST returns. Meanwhile, you can wait for another CA to review the GST audits before submission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to Be Ready for a GST Audit?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Following are some ways in which taxpayers can prepare themselves for GST audit:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>First, you will need to bring extra data along with the required documents to allow the auditors to scrutinize everything properly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You must be ready to pay 24% interest on that extra Input Tax Credit (ITC). In addition, the auditor will check the returns of your venture to see if you are eligible for the same.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check the accurate format available under GST to submit invoice information.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You might need to make adjustments in case the auditor observes gaps when auditing your financial statements.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Note that there might be some revised ITCs if you are unable to pay the amount within 180 days.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You might have to remodel your business structure if during the audit the auditor finds it somewhat different from the one that you have mentioned.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>There must be a gap of 180 days or less between the invoices and the payment dates.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You will have to address issues arising when comparing the E-way bills with the available invoices.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You will have a window of up to 24 hours to resolve any anomalies arising between E-way bills and invoices.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The payment amount and the invoice generated must be the same. Otherwise, the amount which is falling short will be deducted from your Input Tax Credit.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You will have to pay a penalty in case of transporting your goods without an E-way bill.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the common errors observed when filing GST include incorrect tax payments, wrong classification of goods and services, discrepancies in payment of taxes and so on. Hence, the different <strong>types of audits under GST<\/strong> ensure that you stay compliant with the laws of GST, helping you avoid penalties or punishments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-ast-global-color-4-background-color has-background\">\ud83d\udca1 If you want to pay your GST with Credit Card, then download\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=one.pice.pice_business_loan&amp;_branch_match_id=1260478299341712556&amp;utm_source=website&amp;utm_campaign=homepage&amp;utm_medium=website&amp;_branch_referrer=H4sIAAAAAAAAA8soKSkottLXz8wryyxJ1SvITE5NLCjQS87P1S9PTcrIz00FAMR0ueciAAAA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Pice Business Payment App<\/a>.
