A Show Cause Notice is issued by a GST Officer when they want the dealer to explain why they should be allowed to avail the benefits of Composition Scheme. In the following cases a Show Cause Notice is issued by the GST officer:

  • The dealer opted for composition scheme when not eligible.
  • The dealer has broken the rules of the scheme.

The GST officer having jurisdiction over the dealer should issue the notice. Since, the composition scheme is a canopy covering all the GSTINs having same PAN number, any notice issued with respect to one GSTIN shall be applicable to all the GSTINs registered under the same PAN. Similarly, any order issued to a business with a GSTIN shall automatically apply to other GSTINs registered with same PAN.

The notice must mention the reasons for which the composition scheme is denied to the taxpayer. The reply to the notice has to be provided by the taxpayer in GST CMP-06. The officer may also direct the taxpayer to appear before him on a designated date. Here is the form GST CMP-05 as per GST rules:
