What is a GST Audit?

A GST Audit is the formal examination of your business’s records, returns, and documents to verify the correctness of the turnover declared, taxes paid, refunds claimed, and Input Tax Credit (ITC) availed. While the government has shifted the GSTR-9C to a self-certification model, compiling the annual return (GSTR-9) and the reconciliation statement (GSTR-9C) remains a highly complex task that requires meticulous professional oversight.

At Efilingway, our tax experts dig deep into your financial statements, cross-checking your books of accounts with your monthly/quarterly GST returns to identify and rectify discrepancies before the tax authorities do.
