Online GST Return Filing
GST return is a document that furnishes information about total sales and purchases made by a person or business entity during the reporting period and the amount of tax paid on purchase (input tax) and tax collected on sales (output tax) during such period. The difference between tax collected and input tax credit availed is the amount of GST which is required to be paid at the time of filing a GST Return. It is filed electronically on the GST Portal maintained by the Government.
Every GST registered person (irrespective of his turnover or transactions) has to mandatory file GST Returns periodically. A Business entity having more than Rs. 5 crores annual aggregate turnover has to file monthly GST return (Form GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B) and annual return (Form GSTR-9 and GSTR- 9C), whereas a business entity with turnover less than Rs. 5 crores may file the return on Quarterly basis and make payment of tax every month (known as QRMP Scheme) along with Annual Return. A business entity which has not done any kind of transactions shall also file NIL GST returns every month/quarter, as the case may be.
GST Returns should be generally filed under the guidance of a professional who shall have a good understanding of the GST Laws to avoid penalties and fines.
Advantages Of Online GST Return Filing
Avoid Heavy Penalty
GST return filings are to be mandatorily complied by every person or business entity registered under GST. Filing of GST Returns on time will help a person to avoid heavy penalties.
Claim of Input Tax Credit (ITC)
Under the GST mechanism, a registered business entity can claim input tax credit of GST paid on purchase and can utilize the same for payment of taxes due on supply of goods or services. However, a taxpayer can claim ITC only after proper returns have been filed by the person who collected the GST amount.
Builds good credibility
A Business entity that files timely GST returns have better credibility and reliability amongst the purchaser, supplier, consumers, banks, financial institutions which benefits the enterprise in attracting more business and obtaining loans.
Necessary for GST refunds
Specific business entities such as Exporters or suppliers to SEZ may get refund of GST paid at the time of export supply. In order to claim this refund amount, the taxpayer has to file GST Returns for the reporting period disclosing such export transactions.
Seamless generation of E-way bills
A business entity that intends to supply goods and has not filed GST returns for 2 or more consecutive periods shall not be allowed to generate an E-way bill. Therefore, filing regular GST returns is necessary for logistic purpose and seamless generation of E-way bills.
