Facts
The portal gives an ARN with SMS and email at filing. The law also provides that the officer acknowledges the payment in DRC-04.
Provisions and law
- Rule 142(2) and (3), CGST Rules 2017Payment before or after a notice is intimated in DRC-03; the officer acknowledges it in DRC-04
Analysis
Rule 142(2) provides that the proper officer issues an acknowledgement in DRC-04 accepting the payment. The DRC-03 manual describes the ARN and SMS and email confirmations. Example: keep the ARN and, if DRC-04 is not visible after a few weeks, write to the officer asking for it, especially for pre-notice payments.
Conclusion
- Save the ARN and payment confirmation.
- Check View Notices and Orders for DRC-04.
- Write to the officer if no acknowledgement appears.
- Keep all of this with the case file.
