Dear Member,
We would like to inform you that CBIC has issued Circular No. 1070/3/2019 CX dated 24th June, 2019 implementing the CBIC (ICEGATE) E-payment portal w.e.f. 1st July, 2019 and revising the procedure for making e-payment of Central Excise and Service Tax arrears under the new CBIC-GST Integrated portalhttps://cbic-gst.gov.in.
Your kind attention is invited to the Board’s Circular No.1069/2/2019-CX dated 8th May, 2019 with regard to the revised procedure for electronic filing of CE &ST Returns and for electronic payment of Excise Duty and Service Tax.
DG Systems has now integrated payments of CE & ST with ICEGATE portal and the new payment gate way portal “CBIC (ICEGATE) E-payment” will be operational w.e.f., 1st July, 2019 onwards.
Accordingly, from 1st July, 2019 onwards, a new revised procedure has to be followed by the taxpayers for making CE & ST payments. First, taxpayer has to create a Challan on the integrated CBIC portal. Post creation of the Challan, and on clicking Make Payment, taxpayer will be directed to CBIC-ICEGATE portal for initiating payment.
For more information on the revised procedure for making payments of Central Excise and Service Tax arrears, members may kindly refer to Circular No. 1070/3/2019 CX dated 24th June, 2019.
Members may kindly make a note of the above.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,
