Every registered person paying GST is required to furnish an electronic return every calendar month. A \u201cTax Return\u201d is a document that showcases the income of a registered taxpayer. Such a document needs to be filed with the tax authorities in order to pay tax to the government. The tax to be paid by a registered dealer depends upon the income declared by such a person in the tax return filed with the tax authorities. There are various types of Goods and Services Tax (GST) returns in different countries, but I can provide you with general information about the types of GST returns and their respective due dates in India.<\/p>

  1. <\/b>GSTR \u2013 1: Return for Outward Supplies<\/b><\/strong><\/li><\/ol>

    GSTR-1 is a monthly return of outward supplies undertaken by a normal registered taxpayer under GST. In other words, this monthly return showcases the sales transactions of a business in a particular month.<\/p>

    The due date for GSTR-1 is generally the 11th of the following month or the standard date for filing GSTR-1 is 10 days from the end of the month for which such a return is to be filed.<\/p>

    1. <\/b>GSTR \u2013 2: Return for Inward Supplies<\/b><\/strong><\/li><\/ol>

      GSTR-2 is a monthly return of inward supply of goods and services as agreed by the recipient of the goods and services. In other words, GSTR-2 contains details with regards to the purchases made by the recipient in a particular month. The information contained in GSTR-2 is auto-populated with the details contained in GSTR-2A.<\/b><\/strong><\/p>

      The process of making changes and filing GSTR-2 is required to be undertaken between 11th and 15th day of the succeeding month for which return is to be filed.<\/p>

      1. <\/b>GSTR \u2013 2A: Read Only Document<\/b><\/strong><\/li><\/ol>

        GSTR-2A is a read only document. This document gets auto-populated once the supplier uploads the details in GSTR-1. In other words, GSTR-2A enables the recipient to verify the details uploaded by the supplier in GSTR 1. Also the recipient could accept, reject, modify or keep the invoices pending using the said details. However, such changes are made by the recipient in GSTR 2.<\/p>

        GSTR-2A is a read-only document used by the recipient to match the details uploaded by the supplier in GSTR-1. Thus, the recipient can accept, reject, modify or keep the invoices pending in case there is any mismatch. However, the recipient can make actual changes, if any, only in Form GSTR 2. This process of making changes and filing GSTR-2 is to be undertaken between 11th and 15th day of the month succeeding the month for which such a return is to be filed.<\/p>

        1. <\/b>GSTR \u2013 3B: Summary of Inward and Outward Supplies<\/b><\/strong><\/li><\/ol>

          This is a monthly return for regular taxpayers and requires the summary of outward supplies, input tax credit, and tax liability. It is a self-declaration of the taxpayer’s tax liability for the month and is filed even if there are no outward supplies. GSTR-3B is an interim return and needs to be filed along with the payment of taxes.<\/p>

          The GSTR-3B must be submitted by the 20th of the month succeeding the tax period for which GST is filed. In case no transactions have been undertaken in a particular month, the registered person needs to file a NIL return for that period.<\/p>

          1. <\/b>GSTR \u2013 4: Return For Composition Dealers<\/b><\/strong><\/li><\/ol>

            This return is for composition scheme taxpayers who have opted for a simplified taxation scheme. It requires the details of outward supplies, inward supplies, and tax liability. GSTR-4 is filed quarterly, and it allows taxpayers to pay tax at a fixed rate without maintaining detailed records.\u00a0<\/b><\/strong><\/p>

            1. <\/b>GSTR \u2013 5: Return For Non-Resident Taxable Persons<\/b><\/strong><\/li><\/ol>

              The details in GSTR 5 need to be filed within a time period that is earlier of:<\/p>

              • within 20 days after the end of the calendar month or within<\/li>

                  GSTR 6 is a monthly return that an Input Service Distributor files every calendar month. This return provides information of all the invoices on which credit has been received and is issued by an ISD. This means that it gives a summary of the total input tax credit available for distribution during a particular month. Thus, the details of the invoices that an ISD furnishes in form GSTR 6 are made available to every recipient of the credit. These details are visible to the recipient in part B of form GSTR 2A.<\/b><\/strong><\/p>

                  GSTR-6 needs to be filed on the thirteenth day of the month succeeding the month for which tax is to be paid.<\/p>

                  1. <\/b>GSTR \u2013 7: Return For Taxpayers Deducting TDS<\/b><\/strong><\/li><\/ol>

                    This return is for taxpayers who are required to deduct tax at source (TDS) while making certain payments such as salaries, commissions, etc. It requires the details of TDS deducted and deposited<\/p>

If the details furnished by the deductor are accepted by the deductee, then a TDS certificate is made available to the deductee electronically.<\/p>

                    GSTR-7 is required to be filed by the deductor within 10 days after the end of the month in which the deduction was made<\/p>

                      GSTR-9 is an annual return that needs to be filed by regular taxpayers. It requires the details of outward and inward supplies made during the financial year. It includes information about sales, purchases, input tax credit availed, and taxes paid. GSTR-9 is a consolidated summary of all the monthly\/quarterly returns filed during the financial year. The due date for filing GSTR-9 is generally the 31st of December of the following financial year. For example, for the financial year 2020-2021, the due date would be 31st December<\/b><\/strong>.<\/p>

                      GSTR-9C is a reconciliation statement and certification that needs to be filed along with GSTR-9. It is applicable to taxpayers whose annual turnover exceeds a specified threshold. GSTR-9C requires the taxpayer to reconcile the data provided in the audited financial statements with the figures reported in the annual return (GSTR-9).
