   Now fill the amount into the input boxes for CGST, IGST, CESS, SGST for the tax, interest, penalty fees, and other.

   For example: if you want to pay 8,000 in tax for CGST and SGST, then the tax amount for CGST will be 4,000, and for SGST, the tax amount should be the same as 4,000.

6. Step 6: Choose your payment method from “E-Payment”, “Over The Counter”, “NEFT/RTGS”.

   E-Payment: If you choose this mode, payment can be made through the bank’s internet banking system. When the payment process is completed successfully, the challan gets automatically updated.

   Over the Counter: Choose this mode if you wish to make payment by visiting an authorized bank branch. Create a challan and deposit it at the bank to make payment. OTC mode is applicable only for making payments up to ₹10,000. Payments beyond ₹10,000 can only be made through E-Payment or NEFT/RTGS mode.

   NEFT/RTGS: Select this mode if you wish to make the payment by bank transfer. First, create the challan and deposit the amount via bank by NEFT or RTGS method.

   Suppose you choose the E-Payment mode; then the option to generate the Challan and save the challan is automatically enabled.

9. Step 9: Now, the final step: make the online payment according to your selected payment mode, such as Net Banking, BHIM UPI, Credit/Debit, or Preferred Bank.

   After successful payment, your challan updates automatically after some time. With this, the process of generating the GST Challan with payment is completed.Congratulations in advance; you have learned how to generate the GST Challan and verify the GST Challan by downloading the Challan as a PDF.

How to Practice GST Challan

Now the question is how to practice the GST Challan because there is only one official government portal to generate the GST Challan. And this challan is recorded in government official records with your assigned GSTIN.

So, you need to be very careful about the process of generating the GST Challan. And on the government portal, you cannot create a dummy record just for practicing.

That is why we built the Learn GST Challan simulator to practice the GST Challan an infinite number of times without affecting any official government records. You can practice with our tool without creating any GSTIN Number or any type of account, with 0% payment risk. And this tool is 100% free of cost.
