Late Fees for GSTR 1 and GSTR 3B Filing?
A taxpayer will incur late fees for failing to file the GSTR 1 or GSTR 3B return within the due date. The amount of late fees will vary according to the income tax slab or the total turnover of a business. Additionally, if a taxpayer is able to submit incomplete returns by the deadline, then they may be liable to pay additional late fee charges. To avoid these costly penalties, it’s best to ensure that all GST payments are made on time and depending upon total turnovers tax slabs are only applicable.
Penalty Charges & Late Fees?
GSTR 1 and GSTR 3B are two types of returns that are required to be filed by businesses registered under the goods and services tax (GST) in India.
GSTR 1 is a monthly return that needs to be filed by the 10th of the next month and it contains details of all outward supplies made by the business during the month.
GSTR 3B is a summary return that needs to be filed by the 20th of the next month and it contains details of the business’s turnover, tax liability, and tax paid during the month.
If a business fails to file either of these returns by the due date, it may be subject to late fees. The late fee for GSTR 1 is INR 100 per day, up to a maximum of INR 5,000. The late fee for GSTR 3B is INR 50 per day, up to a maximum of INR 10,000.
