No Reply to GST Notices on Portal? Send RPAD Reminders: Madras HC to GST Authorities

Madras High Court directed GST authorities to send reminders via Registered Post with Acknowledgement Due (RPAD) if no reply is received to GST notices uploaded on the portal. The court emphasized the importance of ensuring effective communication with taxpayers, recognizing that not all recipients may regularly check the online GST portal. By mandating RPAD reminders after repeated online notifications, the High Court aims to provide a more reliable means of informing taxpayers about crucial GST demands or proceedings, ensuring they have a fair opportunity to respond and comply with the law.
