Many times the taxpayers while filing GSTR-3B face JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) validation error due to which they are not able to file their GSTR-3B. This can be frustrating for the tax payer specially in cases where he is filing such return at the eleventh hour.
It may also be noted here that apart from the JSON validation error, other JSON errors may also be faced by tax payers due to incorrect / wrong data entered in the offline tool. It may be noted here that in such cases the GST return preparation tool will generate JSON file and error will be depicted only after some time when you have uploaded the JSON file.

Now after learning why JSON validation error occurs, now it is time to solve such error and to successfully file our GSTR-3B returns.
