GST Return Filing

Monthly and quarterly GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B filed accurately, every cycle

What is GST Return Filing?

Stay GST-compliant with managed monthly or quarterly return filing. We reconcile your sales and purchase data, maximise Input Tax Credit, file GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B on time, and keep your GSTIN in good standing.

Every GST-registered business must file regular returns even in periods with no activity. GSTR-1 reports outward supplies and GSTR-3B is the summary return through which tax is paid. Businesses under the QRMP scheme file quarterly with monthly tax payments. Timely, reconciled filing protects your Input Tax Credit, keeps the e-way bill and GSTR-1 facilities unblocked, and avoids mounting late fees and interest.

Who Needs GST Return Filing?

Every business and professional registered under GST — regular taxpayers, QRMP filers, e-commerce sellers, and composition dealers — that needs ongoing return filing to stay compliant.

What's Included

  • Monthly or quarterly GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B filed on time
  • Sales and purchase reconciliation to maximise Input Tax Credit
  • GSTR-2B matching to catch missing or mismatched ITC
  • Avoid late fees of ₹50 per day and 18% interest on late tax
  • GSTIN kept active and e-way bill facility unblocked

⚠️ Penalty for Non-Compliance

A late fee of ₹50 per day (₹20 per day for nil returns), split between CGST and SGST and subject to a cap, applies to late returns, along with interest of 18% per annum on tax paid late. Continued non-filing can block your e-way bill facility and lead to suspension of the GSTIN.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the GST return due dates?

For monthly filers, GSTR-1 is due on the 11th and GSTR-3B on the 20th of the following month. QRMP (quarterly) filers file GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B after the quarter, with monthly tax paid via PMT-06. We track the cycle that applies to you.

What is the late fee for GST returns?

₹50 per day (₹20 per day for nil returns), split between CGST and SGST and subject to a cap. Interest of 18% per annum applies on any tax paid late.

What is the QRMP scheme?

The Quarterly Return Monthly Payment scheme lets businesses with turnover up to ₹5 crore file GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B quarterly while paying tax monthly. We advise whether QRMP suits your cash flow.

Do I have to file even with no sales?

Yes. A nil return must still be filed for every period. Skipping it accrues late fees and can block your GSTR-1 and e-way bill generation.

How is Input Tax Credit claimed correctly?

ITC is claimed in GSTR-3B for invoices appearing in your auto-drafted GSTR-2B and used for business. We reconcile every period so you neither lose eligible credit nor claim ineligible credit.

What happens if I keep missing returns?

Continuous non-filing blocks your e-way bill facility and GSTR-1, can lead to suspension or cancellation of the GSTIN, and accumulates late fees and interest that must be cleared before filing resumes.
