Big Update: CBIC extends GSTR-1 Filing Due Date Amid GST Portal Issues

The CBIC (Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs) has extended the GSTR-1 filing deadline due to ongoing issues with the GST portal. The extension was granted to provide businesses with additional time to complete their filings, as many taxpayers were facing difficulties accessing the portal. The GSTN is addressing the technical problems that caused the disruption, and the extension is aimed at alleviating the pressure on professionals and businesses that depend on the portal for timely compliance. This move provides temporary relief to taxpayers, ensuring that they are not penalized for delays caused by technical glitches.
