GST Returns Due Dates for GTSR 1 and GSTR 3b

GSTR 3B New Updates:

July 2022: 5 important changes incorporated into GSTR 3b

#1. Filling the date related to inter state supply to unregistered person, COmposition dealer and UIN holders

This information is required in table 3.2 of GSTR 3b. But many taxpayers skip this information. Now it is mandatory to fill this information also. CBIC has wared the taxpayer to not to skip this data. As this data is required for centre and state segregation of taxes.

#2. Auto populating Data in GSTR 3b

Now on most of data in GSTR 3b will be auto populated. Data related to sales will be auto populated from GSTR 1. The input tax credit in Table 4 of GSTR 3b will be fetched from GSTR 2B. This will make return filing very easy. Most of the data is already available in the return itself.

#3. Disclosure of non reclaimable reversals

All the non reclaimable reversals will be disclosed on Table 4(B)(1). ITC reversal under 42/43 and 17(5) are covered here. They are non reversible ITC’s.

#4. Disclosure of reclaimable reversals

Reclaimable ITC’s will have two entries. The first is of reversal and the second of reclaim.

The reversal for delay in payment beyond 180 days is covered here. You can reclaim when the purchase is finally paid off. ITC reversed for nonreceipt of goods is another example. You will take it when the goods/service will receive.

In these cases first of all, reversal is made in table 4(B)(2). We can reclaim that ITC when we fulfill the condition. At that time we can show it in table 4(A)(5) and 4(D)(1).

#5. Data to be filled by an E-commerce operator and vendor where the supply is covered u/s 9(5)

Two new tables are part of GSTR 3b now. The first is for an E-commerce operator and another is for E-commerce vendor. The first table will cover the supply of notified services under section 9(5) of CGST Act by ECO. The second table will be filled by the vendor. The format of both tables is given below.

GSTR 1 due dates-

Due Date Form to be filed Period
11/07/2021 GSTR-1 June-2021
13/07/2021 GSTR-1 (QRMP) Apr-2021 to June-2021

Various GST returns due dates:

I never saw such a complex structure for the due dates. It took around one and a half hr to compile the de dates only. Then there are multiple bifurcations. I have attached the notifications also. Pls, refer to them if you have any confusion. Also while going through these GST returns due dates take care of original dates. Filing dates without a late fee & interest. The taxpayer can file GSTR 3b from 1st July 2017 to January 2020 without late fees from 1st July to 30th September. But here they have to file returns from Feb to April till June 2020. Thus a further change in these due dates is expected. Because the amnesty scheme is clashing with these dates.

Notification no. 57/2020 curtailed the late fees at Rs. 500 per month per return.  In the case of NIL return, the late fees are Zero.

What are the various due dates for GSTR 1 for FY 2020?

Thus filing of GSTR 1 after these dates may land you in levy of late fees. Although there is no interest in this case. Because GSTR 1 is only a statement of Supply. The payment of tax is done via GSTR 3b.

These are the GST returns due dates for FY 2020. Pls, save this post for any future change. Thus a pandora’s box is here and you need to stay connected.

 

GST returns due dates

What will be the consequences of missing GST returns due dates:

  • Full late fees from the original due date are leviable. These dates are for late filing without a late fee. Now you can file all the GSTR 3b by 30th Sept 2020. Late fees are maximum of Rs. 500 for returns with tax and NIL for returns without tax.
  • Full interest is leviable @18% from the original due date.

Thus you should file all your returns before these due dates. Because delay may result in huge costs in terms of late fees and interest.

These provisions are also explained in this video.
