GST Compliance

GST Return Filing and GST Compliance

GST compliance is monthly or quarterly, not annual, and small mismatches compound quickly. Bluman prepares and files your GST returns, reconciles the input tax credit in GSTR-2B against your books, and flags differences before they turn into notices or blocked credit.

The returns most businesses file

GSTR-1 reports outward supplies. GSTR-3B is the summary return through which tax is paid. Composition taxpayers file CMP-08 and GSTR-4. Taxpayers above the notified turnover also file the annual return GSTR-9 and the reconciliation statement GSTR-9C.

Why input tax credit gets lost

Credit is available only when your supplier has reported the invoice and it appears in your GSTR-2B, and only within the time limit prescribed by law. Unreconciled purchases, wrong GSTINs and invoices booked in the wrong period are the usual reasons businesses silently lose credit.

Notices, refunds and registration changes

Beyond routine filing, we handle show cause notice replies, refund applications for exports and inverted duty, LUT filing for zero-rated supply without payment of tax, registration amendments, cancellation and revocation.

Frequently asked questions

When are GST returns due?

GSTR-1 is generally due on the 11th of the following month for monthly filers, and quarterly under the QRMP scheme. GSTR-3B is generally due on the 20th of the following month, with staggered dates for quarterly filers. Dates can shift through notifications, so we track them against your registration.

What happens if a GST return is filed late?

Late fees accrue per day per return, subject to caps, and interest applies on the tax paid late. A pending return also blocks the next period's filing and can affect your recipients' credit.

Do I need GST registration?

Registration is required once turnover crosses the threshold applicable to your state and supply type, and compulsorily in certain cases such as inter-state taxable supply, e-commerce operators and reverse charge situations, regardless of turnover.
