This Amendment Rule will come into effect form <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">22-9-2025<\/span>. Notably, certain provisions have distinct effective dates:<\/p>\n<ol style=\"list-style-type: lower-roman;\">\n<li>\n<p>Rule 39 Amendment: Deemed effective from 1-4-2025<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Rule 91 Amendment: Effective from 1-10-2025<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>Key Points of Central GST Third Amendment 2025:<\/h3>\n<ol style=\"list-style-type: decimal;\">\n<li>\n<p>The Third Amendment amends the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/ASQoWD69\" target=\"_blank\">Central Goods and Services Tax Rules, 2017<\/a>, reflecting the government&#8217;s commitment to:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li>\n<p>Streamlining refund and appeal mechanisms<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Enhancing transparency in ITC reporting<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Addressing complexities in e-commerce taxation<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Improving reconciliation between financial statements and GST returns<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>The Valuation multiplier for actionable claims such as lottery tickets has been revised from <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">128 to 140<\/span> under <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Rule 31A (2)<\/span>. This change directly impacts the tax computation for businesses engaged in lottery, betting, and gambling activities.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Under <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Rule 39 (1A)<\/span>, the scope of input tax credit distribution by Input Service Distributors (ISDs) has been expanded to include supplies under reverse charge as per sections 5(3) and 5(4) of the Integrated GST Act. This ensures a more inclusive and accurate distribution of ITC across branches and units of businesses operating in multiple states.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Rule 91(2)<\/span> has been substituted to mandate that refunds be processed based on system-driven risk evaluation, with the proper officer required to issue <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">FORM GST RFD-04<\/span> within <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">seven days<\/span> of acknowledgment. This automation is expected to reduce delays and enhance refund efficiency.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Rule 110<\/span> has been revised to introduce <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">FORM GST APL-02A<\/span>, replacing the earlier APL-02 and dividing the appeal process into Part A (acknowledgment) and Part B (submission).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>A new <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Rule 110A<\/span> empowers the President or Vice-President of the Appellate Tribunal to assign appeals to a <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Single Member Bench<\/span> if the matter does not involve a question of law. If a similar issue has already been adjudicated by a Bench comprising both a Technical and Judicial Member, future appeals on the same issue must follow the same composition.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Additionally, the <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">&#8377;50 lakh threshold under Section 109(8)<\/span> will now be calculated cumulatively across all issues and tax periods covered in the appealed order, ensuring consistency and fairness in bench allocation.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Rule 113(2) has been substituted to require the Appellate Tribunal to issue a <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">summary of its order in FORM GST APL-04A<\/span>, clearly indicating the final amount of demand confirmed.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>The annual return <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">FORM GSTR-9<\/span>, has been amended as follows:<\/p>\n<ol style=\"list-style-type: lower-roman;\">\n<li>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Table 6A1:<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Input Tax Credit<\/span> (&#8216;ITC&#8217;) of previous FY availed in April&#8212;October of current FY.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Table 6H1:<\/span> IGST credit availed on imports in next FY.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Table 7A&#8212;7H:<\/span> Consolidated ITC reversals under Rules 37, 37A, 38, 39, 42, 43 and section 17(5).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Table 13:<\/span> ITC availed in next FY for supplies received in current FY.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Table 14:<\/span> Differential tax paid due to adjustments in Tables 10 &amp; 11.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>In <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">FORM GSTR-9C<\/span>, which reconciles audited financials with GST returns, new rows have been added to account for supplies where tax is payable by <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">e-commerce operators<\/span> under <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Section 9(5)<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>This includes <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Row D1<\/span> in Part II and <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Row K2<\/span> in Part III, ensuring that both suppliers and e-commerce platforms accurately report their respective liabilities.
