FAQ's

A GST Audit is a detailed examination of a GST-registered taxpayer’s records, returns and other documents to verify the correctness of turnover declared, taxes paid, refunds claimed and input tax credit availed, and to assess compliance with the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 and related rules.

Although mandatory audit under Section 35(5) was removed, departmental and special audits under Sections 65 & 66 can still be triggered.

There are primarily three audit types:
  • Departmental Audit (under Section 65) where GST authorities conduct the audit.
  • Special Audit (under Section 66) ordered when complex cases or suspicion of incorrect tax/ITC claims exist.
  • Turnover-based Audit (formerly under Section 35(5)) for taxpayers above a certain threshold — though the statutory requirement was removed, the GSTR-9C reconciliation still applies in certain cases.

Businesses should maintain and make available:
  • Sales and purchase registers, invoices and debit/credit notes.
  • Records of input tax credit (ITC), output tax liability, stock details and e-way bills.
  • Filed GST returns (GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, GSTR-9 or GSTR-9C where applicable) and reconciliation statements.
Adequate documentation and clean records help minimize risks during audit.

Proactive GST audit services help businesses:
  • Identify and correct compliance gaps before they lead to penalties.
  • Strengthen internal controls around ITC claims and tax liability.
  • Respond effectively to departmental audits or notices with well-prepared documentation.
  • Build credibility with tax authorities and reduce disruption in operations.
Working with professionals like CAA Ahmedabad ensures local expertise, streamlined audit process and minimized disruption.

If discrepancies are detected during audit:
  • The tax officer will issue Form GST ADT-02 summarizing findings and reasons.
  • The business may be required to pay additional tax, interest and penalties depending on the severity of non-compliance.
  • In some cases, a Special Audit may be ordered, or an investigation may follow.
Thus, prompt correction of errors and professional guidance can reduce risks and costs.
