Facts
While a core amendment is pending with the officer, the portal does not let you file a non-core amendment. You need to wait for the core application to be approved or rejected.
Provisions and law
- Rule 19(1), CGST Rules 2017Any change in registration details is filed in REG-14 within 15 days of the change; legal name, places of business and partners or directors need officer approval
Analysis
The GST tutorial explains that only one core application can be pending at a time and non-core changes wait behind it. Example: you filed an address change on 2 June and want to add a bank account on 5 June; the bank update must wait until the address change is approved. If you are in a hurry, follow up with the officer on the core application.
Conclusion
- Check Track Application Status for the pending core ARN.
- Reply quickly to any query on the core application.
- Once approved, file the non-core change.
- If the core application is stuck past 15 working days, raise a grievance.
