  2. Provisions and law

    • Sec 107(1), CGST Act 2017Appeal to the Appellate Authority within three months of the order

  3. Analysis

    Appeals succeed where the rejection rests on a procedural lapse, like a late LUT, or on a formula error by the officer. Where the problem was your own missing document, a fresh claim within the time limit may be faster than appeal. Compare the time left on the two-year limit before deciding.

  4. Conclusion

    1. Read the order and list each ground of rejection
    2. Check the time left under the two-year limit
    3. Decide between a fresh claim and an appeal
    4. File APL-01 with grounds and documents within three months
