Seeing this error? Schema mismatches or invalid values cause the bulk JSON to be rejected. Below are the common causes and the fixes that resolve it for most users.

Why this happens

  • The JSON does not match the portal's current bulk schema.
  • Mandatory fields are missing or wrongly formatted.
  • Date, GSTIN or HSN values fail validation.
  • The file exceeds the allowed record limit.

How to fix it

1

Use the latest template

Download the current bulk JSON preparation tool from the portal and re-export.

2

Validate values

Check dates (DD/MM/YYYY), GSTINs and HSN codes before generating the JSON.

3

Split the file

Keep each upload within the record limit by splitting large batches.

4

Read the error report

The portal lists the exact line and field that failed — fix those rows.

Important
If the problem is on the portal side (maintenance or server load), no browser fix will help — confirm with a second network first.
