Dear all,

Your association SIMA is in receipt of a mail from the Advocate Dinesh H. Mehta, (Goods & Service Tax, Central Excise and Legal Consultant) on Sep 24th, 2024. regarding the Archival of GST Returns data on the GST portal.

1. Section 39 (11) of the CGST Act, 2017, implemented w.e.f 01-10-2023 vide Notification No. 28/2023 – Central Tax dated 31st July 2023, provides that the taxpayers shall not be allowed to file their GST returns after the expiry of a period of three years from the due date of furnishing the said return.

2.  Further, as per the GST portal data policy, data for the view of taxpayers is to be retained for seven years only. Therefore, the same data policy is being implemented on the GST portal. Thus, return data will not be available to view for more than 7 years for taxpayers.

3.  Accordingly, on 01st August 2024, the return filed for July 2017 has been archived and on 01st September 2024, data for August 2017 has been archived. Further, this data archival is going to be a monthly activity hence on 01st October, 2024 data of September 2017 shall be taken down from the GST portal and so on.

4.  Hence, hereby the taxpayers are advised to download their relevant data from the GST portal for any future reference if required.

Thanking you,
With Regards,

For Silvassa Industries & Manufacturers Association
