CIN stands for Challan Identification Number. It is a 17-digit number with a 14-digit CPIN plus a 3-digit Bank Code (KKBK).
CIN is generated by the authorized banks, when the payment is received by them and credited to the relevant government entities.
Challan Identification Number (CIN) i.e. CRN + Bank Code
Validity of a challan is 15 calendar days from the challan’s date of issue, i.e. if CRN is generated on 1st April, then it will remain valid until 15th April, and from 16th April the status of the CRN will change to Expired.
Yes, taxpayers can pay GST in cash by paying at the Bank. However, tax payment through cash is limited to a maximum amount of ₹10,000 per Challan Form.
For making GST payments through an offline mode of payment while generating Challan Form (CPIN), the taxpayer needs to select the bank (Kotak) from the list of Authorized Banks and then select the preferred instrument type (cash/cheque/DD).
