GST ASMT-10 reply drafting

An ASMT-10 notice asks you to explain discrepancies identified during scrutiny of your GST returns. The response should address the questions raised and support the explanation with the relevant records.

Khatabahi Taxpert helps you understand the discrepancy, reconcile the figures and prepare the ASMT-11 response and supporting annexures.

Our approach

We start with the notice and the period under scrutiny. We then compare the relevant returns, books and supporting documents, separate explained differences from items needing further action, and draft a point-by-point response.

What we need

Start with the complete ASMT-10 notice, its attachments, date of service and response date. Depending on the discrepancy, we may ask for returns, reconciliations, invoices, credit notes or earlier correspondence. We explain why each item is needed.

Common questions

Does ASMT-10 mean the department has passed a final demand order?
No. It is a scrutiny communication seeking an explanation. Review and respond to the discrepancies rather than treating it as a final adjudication order.
What is the reply deadline?
Check the time stated in the notice and the date it was served. Send it promptly so the applicable time limit and any need to request further time can be examined. Do not assume every notice gives the same practical response window.
Will submitting the reply close the matter?
Submission alone does not establish closure. The explanation must be considered by the officer. Where accepted under the scrutiny procedure, the officer communicates acceptance in ASMT-12.
Can you help if my accountant prepared the returns?
Yes. With your authorisation, we can coordinate with your accountant to understand the records and the reason for the differences.
