The communication between the taxpayers and the tax department has also been digitized to a significant extent compared to the earlier indirect tax regime. In this article, we will discuss one such FORM DRC-07 in GST portal facilitating communication between the tax department and taxpayer:

DRC 7 under GST will include the demand details (like tax/cess, interest, penalty, and any other amounts payable by the taxpayer).
