Try the latest version of the offline utility 1.2.1
json file doesn't take time to upload unless and until processed with error.
Make sure that the excel file you are importing in the offline utility is valid

One of the reason for above problem is file size excedding 5 MB, Kindly try & copy paste your data in csv file & import the same & then regenerate it, it will be uploaded

it could be that there is an error in the place of supply. eg: for Chandigarh it has to be "04-Chandigarh" instead of "4-Chandigarh". correcting this would solve the problem.

While im filing GSTR1 return for the March 2018 the below error came again and again but i generated JSON on latest GSTR1 utility version 2.2.4.Please resolve my error if anybody knows the solution.

Error:

File could not be uploaded! Download the latest version of Offline tool to generate the JSON file or ensure to validate your uploaded file against the template published at Specification Portal.

Please uninstall old version in the system and delete the offline tool files fully from system. then install latest version V2.2.4 and then work. now it's working.

For this same error I have received the following reply from Department - I'm yet to try it out -

Dear Taxpayer,

Please download latest offline utility for generation of file. If you are still getting same error after downloading latest utility then please follow below steps for json validation.

kindly follow below steps to understand the issue with the JSON if you are getting 'File could not be uploaded! Download the latest version of Offline tool to generate the JSON file' or 'JSON Structure Validation'-

1. Go to https://developer.gst.gov.in/apiportal/taxpayer/returns

2. Click on View API List.

3. click on ‘GSTR1 - Save GSTR1 data’ and then version-v1.1 (On third page).

4. Click on Request Payload and then click on Download Schema

5. Go to https://www.jsonschemavalidator.net/

6. copy the schema and paste in Select schema: on https://www.jsonschemavalidator.net/ (first tab)

7. copy the JSON which is throwing error and paste in Input JSON: (second tab) and Click on the format tab. The errors in the JSON will appear.

8. Correct the mentioned errors in the offline tool and generate the JSON again.

(For example- In the generated JSON if in HSN section uqc i.e unit of measurement is missing which is required property. Kindly fill the required property and then try to upload the corrected json).

Thanks.
