Eligibility

In the GST norms, any regular business has to file three monthly returns and one annual return.GST should also be filed by entities that make no sales or purchases during a given period (year) in the form of nil-returns (meaning no returns).The best part in this system one has to manually enter details of one monthly return – GSTR-1. The other two returns – GSTR 2 & 3 will get auto-populated by deriving information from GSTR-1 filed by you and your vendors.Compounding taxpayers have to file returns quarterly which is for every three months and regular taxpayers such as foreign non-residents, casual taxpayers and Input Service Providers (ISD) have to file returns monthly.

Penalties Involved Under GST Act

  • If you fail to file GST returns on time it can lead to penalties and cancellation of GST registration. If one does not submit a GST return for six months, then the GST registration would be canceled, and the person would not be able to obtain another GST registration – unless all the late filing penalty is paid.

    For people having NIL returns and persons having turnover, the penalty for late filing GST returns is different. NIL GST return must be filed for an individual with no business. Failure to file a NIL GST return can lead to a penalty of Rs. 20 per day for each of the GSTR-3B return and GSTR-1 returns. So, failure to file a NIL GST return can result in a penalty of Rs. 40 per day or Rs. 1200 per month.

    In case a person has business activity during the period for which the GST return is late-filed, then a penalty of Rs. 50 per day will be applicable for a late GSTR-3B return and Rs. 50 per for a GSTR-1 return. Hence, a penalty of more than Rs. 3000 per month would be applicable.

    In addition to the above late filing fees, the person would also have to pay interest at the rate of 18% on GST payments remitted late to the Government.
