The Goods and Services Tax Network (GSTN) has issued an advisory asking taxpayers to update their bank account details on the portal at the earliest. Non-compliance could lead to suspension of GST registration and disruption of business operations.
The Goods and Services Tax Network (GSTN) has announced that changes relating to Rule 10A will be activated on the GST Portal soon. In an advisory dated November 20, the network urged taxpayers to immediately furnish their bank account details if they have not done so already.
Under Rule 10A, all taxpayers—except those registered under TCS, TDS, or those registered suo motu by tax authorities—must furnish their bank account details within 30 days of receiving GST registration or before filing outward supply details in GSTR-1 or IFF, whichever is earlier.
GSTN stated that once the changes go live, the system will enforce compliance.
Taxpayers who fail to update their bank details may face suspension of GST registration, which can halt business activities, invoicing, and tax filings.
How to update bank account details
Taxpayers can add or update their bank account details by filing a non-core amendment on the GST portal. The path provided in the advisory is:
Services → Registration → Amendment of Registration Non-Core Fields
GSTN has advised completing the update in advance to avoid any operational disruption once the rule-based checks are implemented.
