GSTR1 filing due date is tomorrow, but the portal has been down since yesterday! With Pongal celebrations starting tomorrow in Tamil Nadu, many taxpayers will be unable to file on time. Please resolve the issue ASAP! — Tax Pr Ramesh (@TPrRameshOffiz)

At the time of filing the story, we checked GST portal (14.34 hours), where the website highlighted, “We shall be enhancing services on the GST portal on 9th January’25 11:00 PM onwards. GST Portal services will not be available until 10th January ’25 03:00 PM. The inconvenience caused is regretted.”
