Gst Return Filing And Due Dates
All GST registered persons are required file annual/quarterly returns. The return filing is done on online GST portal- https://www.gst.gov.in
Under QRMP scheme the registered person who has an aggregate turnover of up to Rs.5 crore in the preceding financial year can opt to file quarterly GSTR 1, GSTR 3B and pay tax monthly through PMT-06 challan instead of filing returns monthly. The scheme can be obtained on GSTIN basis.
A registered person who intends to opt the scheme should indicate the same on the GST portal, in the period starting from the 1st of the second month of the preceding quarter until the last day of the first month of the quarter for which such option is being exercised.
For example, If the registered person intends to file quarterly returns for Apr-Jun 2021, he should have opted for quarterly filing on the common GST portal between 1st February 2021 and 30th April 2021.
Once the registered person has opted for quarterly filing, he can furnish his return every quarter for all future tax periods, except in the following situations:
