The GST Appellate Tribunal (GSTAT) has now become operational, and the last date for filing appeals before the Tribunal is presently fixed as 30.06.2026. Despite the fact that less than 10% of the eligible appeals have reportedly been filed across the country, there has been no indication from the Government regarding any extension of the prescribed timeline.
In this regard, we have made a representation before the Hon’ble Vice-President of the Rajasthan Bench highlighting the practical difficulties being faced by taxpayers and professionals, including the need for an extension of the filing deadline and resolution of certain procedural issues encountered during the appeal filing process. We remain hopeful that the concerns raised will receive due consideration and that appropriate relief will be granted in the interest of justice.
