Staying on top of GST return due dates and mandatory filings is critical to avoid late fees, interest and GST notices. Below we summarise the common return types, filing frequency, and typical due dates. Note: exact due dates are subject to government notifications and periodic extensions β always confirm on the official GST portal before filing.
| Return / Form | Who files | Typical due date / frequency | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| GSTR-1 | All registered taxpayers (monthly/quarterly depending on turnover & QRMP) | Typically 11th of the next month for monthly filers; quarterly filers under QRMP file on notified dates (subject to notification). | Details of outward supplies (invoices) β ensures recipients can claim ITC. |
| GSTR-3B | Regular taxpayers (monthly) & QRMP taxpayers (quarterly) | Typically 20th of the next month for many taxpayers; for some categories/states due dates may be on the 22nd/24th (or as notified). | Summary return β tax liability, ITC, and payment of GST. |
| IFF (QRMP) / GSTR-1 for QRMP | Taxpayers opted into QRMP | Invoice Furnishing Facility (IFF) for QRMP β typically around the 13th of the month (for the two months inside a quarter); quarterly GSTR-1 filed on the notified due date. | Allows QRMP taxpayers to report certain B2B invoices monthly while filing GSTR-1 quarterly. |
| GSTR-9 / GSTR-9C | Annual filers β taxpayers above prescribed thresholds | Annual β due as per government notification (file once a year; reconcile books to annual return). | Annual consolidation and reconciliation of returns and accounts; audit certification where applicable. |
| GSTR-7 (TDS) / GSTR-8 (TCS) | Entities deducting TDS / e-commerce operators collecting TCS | Typically mid-month due dates (check portal/notifications for exact dates). | Report TDS collected under GST and TCS by e-commerce operators. |
| GSTR-5 / GSTR-6 | Non-residents / Input Service Distributors (ISD) | Monthly filing (dates vary β check portal). | Specialised returns for non-residents and ISDs respectively. |
Mandatory filings & priorities:
if you have limited resources or pending returns, prioritise (1) GSTR-3B to avoid interest & GSTIN suspension, (2) GSTR-1 / IFF reconciliation so your customersβ ITC isnβt blocked, and (3) annual returns (GSTR-9) when due. Timely reconciliation of GSTR-2B vs your books helps prevent notices and reduces audit risk.
Time-bar / Filing window alert:
note that the GSTN has introduced/time announced rules which may time-bar filing of returns beyond a certain window β for example a three-year cut-off is in force for many returns (confirm current status on GST portal). If you have returns older than the permitted window, get professional help immediately to regularise within permitted remedies.
Sales & purchase invoices, credit/debit notes, expense bills, e-commerce settlement reports, e-way bill data and Tally/Busy extracts. Bank statements are optional but helpful.
Yes β late filing is possible. We calculate interest and late fees and submit the required returns, reconciling books for those periods.
GSTR-1 reports outward invoices in detail. GSTR-3B is a monthly summary of liability and ITC β both must reconcile to avoid mismatches.
GSTR-2B is an auto-generated ITC statement for recipients. It helps determine eligible ITC and is static for the tax period β we use it for reconciliation.
ITC is claimable if supplier has uploaded invoices, goods/services used for business, and invoices meet GST conditions. We reconcile and document eligibility.
Timing differences, wrong GSTINs, invoice omissions, incorrect tax rates, and data entry errors are common causes. We resolve these via reconciliation and supplier follow-up.
Interest is typically charged at a percentage per annum on unpaid tax from due date until payment date. Exact rate should be checked for the period β we calculate it for late filings.
QRMP (Quarterly Return Monthly Payment) allows small taxpayers (below threshold) to file GSTR-1 & GSTR-3B quarterly while making monthly payments. We advise eligibility and help opt-in.
Nil returns are filed when there are no outward supplies and no input tax credit to claim. Filing is simple β we can file on your behalf to keep compliance status active.
Composition taxpayers follow CMP-08 (quarterly) and an annual return. If a business opts to shift to regular scheme, different filing rules apply β we advise on pros and cons.
E-invoicing is electronic generation of B2B invoices through the Invoice Registration Portal for businesses above threshold turnover. We assist with integration and generation for eligible clients.
Supplier non-upload blocks ITC. We prepare exception reports, communicate with suppliers, and advise how to document your claim if supplier corrections are delayed.
GSTR-9 is the annual return consolidating monthly/quarterly returns and books for the financial year. Eligible taxpayers above threshold must file β we prepare and reconcile it.
Refunds (e.g., tax paid on exports or excess ITC) require application on GST portal with supporting documents. We compile claims and file refund applications correctly.
Don't ignore notices. We review the notice, gather documents, draft replies, and represent before authorities where required to reduce exposure.
Returns themselves cannot be revised; however errors can be corrected in subsequent returns and through amendments where allowed. We guide the correct remedy.
Under RCM, recipient pays GST on specified supplies instead of supplier. RCM entries must be reported correctly in GSTR-3B; we identify and record them properly.
E-commerce operators collect TCS and file GSTR-8. Sellers must reconcile marketplace reports; we assist matching TCS entries and claims.
HSN (goods) and SAC (services) classify supplies and determine GST reporting. Correct codes avoid disputes and fines; we map your products/services accurately.
Prolonged non-filing may attract heavy penalties, interest, blocking of e-way bills, and eventual GSTIN suspension. We help regularise and limit liabilities.
Yes β we prepare documentation for zero-rated supplies, advise on LUT/bond and help file refund claims where applicable.
GSTR-7 is filed by entities required to deduct TDS under GST. Deductors deposit TDS and report details in GSTR-7; we prepare and file these returns.
While returns canβt be revised, certain errors are corrected in subsequent returns or through amendments (e.g., credit notes). We recommend the correct path depending on the error.
Non-resident taxable persons may need to register and file GSTR-5. We assist in compliance and return preparation for non-resident taxpayers.
Common issues: DSC not recognized, browser incompatibility, OTP/Aadhaar delays, or portal downtime. We help troubleshoot and file using alternate, compliant methods where allowed.
Yes β we import/export and reconcile data from major ERPs (Tally, Busy, QuickBooks, Zoho) to ensure returns match your books.
