Note
Counting the days for a GST appeal
An appeal filed a day late may not be heard at all. How the time limit is counted, and what to do if it has already passed.
An appeal against a GST order has a fixed time limit from the date the order is communicated, with a short further period the appellate authority may allow for sufficient cause.
Start counting from the right day
The date of communication is not always the date on the order. Keep the envelope, the email or the portal record that shows when you received it.
