- The Goods and Services Tax Network (GSTN) recommended extending the deadline for filing GSTR-1 by one day to April 12, 2024, due to technical difficulties faced by taxpayers.
- As of publishing, there was no official notification from the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) regarding the deadline extension, but the GSTN portal displayed the revised deadline as April 12, 2024.
- GST experts suggest that CBIC should increase the server capacity of the GSTN website to accommodate the high number of users. They also recommend implementing GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B filing on staggered dates based on the turnover of registered persons to avoid overwhelming the GSTN portal.
