Interest on Late Payment of GST

According to the GST Penalty regulations, interest will be charged at the rate of 18 percent per annum from the taxpayers who fail to pay their taxes on time. The interest will be levied for the days after the due date.

Check the example below to understand it better: Suppose your tax liability is Rs. 2,000 and you have not paid tax on time for a given month. Now, if you pay tax after one day from the due date, your interest will be calculated as 2000*18/100*1/365 = Rs. 0.98 Per day. If you delay more than that, you’ll have to pay an interest of the same amount per day. Check out the document attached below (chapter 10, point 50) for more details.

    General Queries on GST Payment

    Q.1 – What do you mean by the GST late fee and interest rate?

    In context to the late fees, the non-payment of the late payment poses an interest. The total penalty burden surges through 18% per year as interest. An assessee is subjected to the same burden during the complete time of furnishing the taxes. The fees and the interest gets computed from the last date to the date of filing.

    Q.2 – What shall be the result if the assessee does not furnish the GST Return?

    The assessee who holds the GST enrolled number is required to furnish the GST return. If someone loses to furnish the GST return then a late fee will get imposed on the daily grounds. One shall not be enabled to furnish the ITR for the subsequent month if he or she does not or fails to furnish the GSTR for the current month. Apart from all these compliances an amount of Rs 50 shall be imposed every day as a late fee. Rs 5000 will be the highest amount that could be obtained as a late fee if the assessee losses to furnish his GST return.

    Q.3 – As a taxpayer I do not have any amount to file as a GST return, Could I furnish my GSTR?

    Yes, one is enabled to furnish the GST return. The filing is adjusted as a NIL return. There might be two cases to furnish the GSTR with no tax. In the first case, there shall have no buyings and no sale in that specific year hence no transaction is there. Thus one can furnish the NIL transaction return. In the other case, the goods and services have been purchased by you but no sale has been performed. Hence you have furnished the GST during the purchase thus you need to furnish the GSTR-3B and avail of the ITC.

    Q.4 – What is the method to compute the late fees for the GST payment?

    Rs 100 shall be imposed by CGST and Rs 100 by SGST post to the last date of furnishing of the GST return. Hence a total of Rs 200 per day shall be levied through the tax council against the taxpayer. For instance, if the assessee losses to furnish the return due on the date 15th August and do not furnish the same till 9th September then the late fees shall be computed as:

    • 25 days * 200 = INR 5000 of late fees

    Q.5 – Is there any interest imposed on the late fees with respect to the payment of GSTR?

    GST penalty laws verified that each assessee who losses the last date to furnish the taxes needs to file the interest with 18% per annum as late fees. Hence if the individual due for the GST return is Rs 2500 and he or she files it after 3 days of the last date then the interest need to pay as a late fee on the tax shall be computed as:

    • 2500*18/100*3/365 = Rs. 3.7 of interest on late fees

    The interest amount gets computed towards the duration between the actual last date of paying the tax and the date on which the return was furnished.

    Q.6 – Is it important to furnish the GST as a NIL transaction?

    If you own a GST registration number then truly it is essential for a taxpayer that he furnish the GSTR. If you pose no buyings or sale transaction then you are required to furnish the NIL GSTR. if you do not furnish the GST return, then late fees shall get imposed. Beneath the CGST act Rs 25 will be imposed as well as Rs 25 shall get charged under the SGST act on a per-day basis. On the same penalty amount, 18% interest per annum will be imposed.

    Q.7 – Can late fees on GST be avoided?

    In some of the cases, GST late fees shall get avoided but if it does not then it should be furnished prior to the furnishing of the taxes

    • mukesh

      We paid Tax on time but we did not offset the liability in GSTR 3B, because in GSTR 3B wrongly mentioned taxable value as 0 (Zero) so the liability did not set off. did we are liable to pay interest from the due date of GSTR 3B to till filing of annual return for FY 2017-18?

      • SAG Infotech

        Since you have paid the whole tax on the time then you are not liable to any Interest. However, you are liable to pay Late fee instead

              If you have balance in cash ledger then interest liability will not arise, however you are liable for late fees for non filing of GSTR 3B which is Rs. 20 per day for NIL returns and Rs. 50 in other cases.

      Sir, I have registered in GST. Now my Outstanding liability for the month of Dec’2018 is Rs. 1000/-. I have an ITC balance of Rs. 500/-. I have filled GSTR-3B return on 28.02.2019 and made payment of Rs. 500 by ITC and Rs. 500 by Cash on 28.02.2019.

      So my question is as under:

      2. if interest payable, on what amount (i.e. on Rs. 500 or Rs. 1000)
      3. what is the calculation process of interest.

      Thank you, Sir.

      • SAG Infotech

        1. Interest will be payable as you have not made the payment on time.
        2. Interest would be payable on gross tax liability.
        3. Interest @ 18%p.a would be charged and to be calculated on a daily basis.

    • momslittlepie

      Hello Sir,

      I received my GST number in the month of July 18, but I didn’t file returns until Sept 18. So early Oct 18, I did file my return and paid a late fee of Rs 490 each for CGST and SGST for July and August 18. Now I’m trying to file returns for Sept for which due date for filing return is 20/10/2018 but still, the late fee of Rs 1100 is generated for both CGST and SGST. Is this right or I’m filing incorrectly.

      • SAG Infotech

        Rs. 1100 fees generated is for the month of July 2018 or aug, 2018 which may be not included in the return of July but late fees sometimes are carried forward in next period return. Therefore, late fees appearing in sept month return is carried forward late fees of earlier month

For example for sept 2017 3b due date id 20 oct, 20177.No. of days shall be from 21st Oct 2017 to date of filing say 17.12.2018 i.e. 423 days.

      Dear Sir,

      I paid GST on GTA services (on reverse charge basis) till Dec 17. After which and till date I have not paid any GST on the GTA services and neither showed them in my returns, due to ignorance that Reverse charge has been postponed till 30th June ’18.

      So my question is:

      1) How can this be rectified?
      2) Can I show the previous liabilities in the current month, and pay the tax.
      3) Do I need to pay any interest for the same? If yes, then what will be the percentage?
      4) Can I claim the ITC after payment of tax?

        (1) Yes, this can be rectified in current or subsequent months.

        (4) Yes. ITC can be claimed after payment

      A: I do not have any Purchases or Sales – It is nil Return and attract Rs. Per Day Late fee if filed after the due date
      B: I do not have any Purchases But no Sales – It is nil Return. What will be late Fee
      C: I have purchased and Sales but no CGST / SGST / IGST liability. What will be a Late fee or will it be called as mention in your text “(in case of Nil tax liability)”
      D: I have Purchases and paid CGST / SGST / IGST but my whole sales are on IGST and no TAX liability to pay as I pay more on purchases and collect less on IGST. So will it be called as Nil Tax and need to pay Late fee Rs. 50/- or Rs. 20 per day

      Your text stated as Rs. 20/day i.e. Rs. 10/- day in each CGST and SGST (in case of Nil tax liability)
      Please reply

      • SAG Infotech

        A. In case there is no sales and purchases it is considered as Nil return and late fee shall be Rs 10/- each in CGST and SGST.
        B. In case there are purchases it is not Nil return and late fee shall be Rs. 25 each in CGST and SGST.
        C. In this case, it is not Nil return and late shall be the same as stated above Rs. 25/-
        D. This not Nil return and late fee shall be Rs. 25/-.
        Nil return is that when there is no purchases and sales means ni data in any table of GSTR-3B

      I applied for GSTIN in Dec’17 and filed for cancellation in Apr’18 because of lack funds from the beginning and no knowledge in GST compliance. Meanwhile, I filed GSTR-1 but didn’t file GSTR-3B from Dec’17 to Till Date (Jun’18). I just want to know how much would be late fee levied to me because when I file GSTR-3B for January’18 it shows Rs.3000 late fee. Is it the total late fee from the Dec’17 to Jun’18 or Just for that month. Also, if late fees will be separate for each month, how much it will be in total for now?

      As I calculated, it might be (3000 + 2400 + 1800 + 1200 + 600) + 18% interest = 10,620?

      Please help.

      Sir, Before starting my business I enrolled for Tin no in January 2017 which later I migrated to GST My sole purpose was to get the loan before starting the business and after so much hard work it got approved in December you should be knowing do bank works in India? My business got started effectively in January 2018. I have not submitted any GST till now What penalty I have to pay or suggest me anyway to exempt from the penalty and if I have to pay penalty than how much it will cost? If I submitted GSTR 3B till 20th…kindly reply

      • SAG Infotech

        You need to file NIL GSTR-3B & GSTR-1 beginning from July 2017 till date. In case of NIL returns, Rs.10 per day late fee is leviable. The late fee will be leviable in GSTR-3B July 2017- April 2018 Month.

      I have wrongly paid GST late fee under IGST late fee column. Can it be adjusted as the late fee with CGST and SGST if not then why IGST column is there? Actually last month I have an only interstate sale, therefore, I have paid in IGST late fee column.

      Thanks

      • SAG Infotech

          My late fees for GST return is coming very huge. I cannot pay that sum of money due to lack of funds. Is it possible if I apply for cancellation of my GST license then I will be spared off from paying any late fees?

      Is there any option to waive off GST Late fees for GSTR 3B filing from October month to march? I heard this option is available with the GST Officer if sufficient cause is given for the delay in filing. Is it true?

      • SAG Infotech

        Till now no such notification has been released regarding late fee being waived for Oct-March month.

      Dear Sir

      I have already filed my GSTR 3b and GSTR 1 for the month Feb and March’2018 previous financial year. But GSTR 3b for the month of Feb’2018 mistakenly filed nil. But tax l paid on before the due date and It is shown in cash ledger.

      • SAG Infotech

        There is no such option of revision of GSTR-3b, but you can show it in under next month’s GSTR-3b or you can revise the bill.

But when I field GSTR 3b for the month Feb’2018 mistakenly filed Nil return due to the technical problem and that time I thought It was adjusted atomically. But not adjust my tax amount till date. My paid tax is shown in electronic cash ledger which amount cannot be adjusted with my GSTR 1 tax due, not available revised option. now what I do

    • Dinesh Pandey -9619494223

      Sir

      We have filed GSTR3B up to Oct-2017 successfully and while preparing online 3B Nov-17 penalty showing Rs 4325 in SGST & Rs 4325/- in SGST we do not understand that max penalty would be 5000/-?

      The 2nd thing if we will pay Rs.4325/- & 4325 /- then all the return 3B will be uploaded without paying penalty or we have to pay penalty for the remaining month. Please reply

      • SAG Infotech

        The maximum penalty that can be levied is Rs. 10000/- (Rs. 5000 each for CGST & SGST). You will have to pay the late fee for each of the months.

    • RAM

      Hello Sir,

      We have not filled GST return from November to till date and now we have given all the documents to the auditor to file a return from November. Our auditor said that the penalty for November only is the Rs.8800/- +tax amount and he said that need to pay penalty for December to till & Jan to till & Feb to till & March to till & April to till?

      Is it Correct sir?

      Need to pay penalty for every month like this sir?
      or paying penalty at one time is enough sir?

      Thanks

        There is no such option for revising the return under GST, so you can cancel the bill and reissue it in the next month and then show it in under right column of GSTR-3B. or you can also contact to the GSTN helpdesk.

      Respected Team,
      when i file GSTR3B for the month of March-18, when i did the payment of INR 6,39,000/-GST and in a blink it did offset the laiblities, and after which when i clicked on Yes button, agin it did offset liabilities successfuly. So when i filed GSTR3B and downloaded GSTR3B returns, the payment of taxes is nill and my cash ledger showed up 6,39,000/- balance means GSTR3B was filed without payment of Taxes. Please suggest me what is interest charges on late payment of GST whenever i receive notice from GST.

      • SAG Infotech

        Interest will be 18% p.a. to be calculated on days basis for delayed payment of taxes.

    • RiddhiSiddhi

      What does “NIl return” in GST means?
      What does “Nil tax liability” in GST means?
      What does “Normal GST return” means?
      what will be late fee status in above three cases? Please explain elaborately.

      Thanks in advance

      • SAG Infotech

        In case a dealer has no outward supplies, in that case also he has to file GST return which is called NIL return.

        A dealer may have nil tax liability if his ITC is more than the outward tax payable. In this case, NIL return would not be filed. The dealer would have to disclose details of his outward supplies, ITC etc in his return.

        Late fee in case of NIL return (For each such return)- Rs. 20/day, for which such failure continues.

    • John

      Sir,

      While filing GSTR-3B for the month of January 2018 [Filed on 20-02-2018], I have made an error in typing eligible ITC. Actual ITC was Rs. 3158.04 for both Central and State GST. The CGST was typed as 3158.04, but the SGST part was typed as 318.04 inadvertently (digit 5 is missing) and got filed as well. i.e., my eligible ITC for the state tax is lowered by Rs. 2840/-.

      I’ve tried claiming this amount in GSTR-3B of February 2018, but when typing the amount in State Tax, the same amount appears in Central Tax as well. I can’t make an entry only for State!

      How can I get ITC of Rs. 2840/- for the state tax part alone?

      Thanks in Advance

    • MENU

      Already, I paid GSTR 4 but it has not filed so without penalty and fine. what to do.

      • SAG Infotech

        if you have not filed your return then it will attract late fees for Rs.50 per day.

        • Menu

          But already I had paid for that why should I pay once again I submitted but unfortunately it was not filed.

          • SAG Infotech

            The late payment of tax amount attracts interest whereas late fees are charged for the late filing of returns. In your case, you have deposited the tax amount. so you will not be liable for interest. but in case you have not filed your returns on the due date then you will be liable for late fees applicable from the day after due date.

      Sir, we have not filed GST returns from September 2017 till date. Recently we filed Sep 2017 and our auditor informed we have to pay penalty and interest. Now we have record notice to pay from oct to dec 2017. Our auditor says if we delay further they will cancel our GST number. Is it true? If true then what is the solution as we are into some financial prob

      • SAG Infotech

        Non-filing of returns will attract heavy fines and penalties. It will not result in cancellation of GST number. Also, any subsequent returns cannot be filed if returns for the prior periods is pending.

      • SAG Infotech

        In case of Nil return penalty is Rs. 10 per day and in case of normal return penalty is Rs. 50 per day. In your case, if GSTR-1 is normal return with data then penalty shall be Rs. 5900/-

          • SAG Infotech

            As you have made the payment of late fees, now you can go for the filing of GSTR-3B and after submitting of return you can offset your tax and late fees liability underpayment of tax column of GSTR-3B. Underpayment of tax column, your late fee amount will automatically calculated by the website, you just to need to put the amount in paid through cash column and set off your liability.

      • SAG Infotech

        In GST, you need to file returns even if you have not conducted any business during the concerned tax period, so you need to file NIL returns and there is no such provision of waive off of late fee in case of NIL return, only the late fee amount has been reduced to Rs. 20/day in case of NIL tax liability.

      • SAG Infotech

        As completion of works has been done after GST and payment also has been received after GST, so applicable GST rate would be applied.

      • SAG Infotech

        • suresh

          I also not filed from Oct to till date for some problem, The system calculated automatically for 3750 plus 3750 so should I pay these two and file the remaining months? Or do I have to pay penalty for every month 50 per day?

          I mean Oct to Apr 50 per day

          Nov to APR 50 per day like these?

          or the total is 3750 plus 3750 till now?

          I am also looking to close the business will I have to cancel registration?

          • SAG Infotech

            You have to pay late fees calculated by the system.

            • suresh

              Thanks, after late fees payment can they allow me to file the remaining months till to date without fees or should I have to pay for every month late fee? I hope you understand my problem.

            • SAG Infotech

              Once you paid late fees for all the month at one time then the extra amount will be reflected in your cash ledger and that too you can utilise for adjusting that against your future late fees liability.

            • suresh

              This is the last question as I cant reply the last comment. Once I paid October late fee is it enough for all the months? or I have to pay November, December late fees etc.

              Please clarify and I ordered to cancel the GST in morning.

            • SAG Infotech

              You can pay late fees at one time and then adjust the remaining balance for next month’s liability as late fees will remain in your cash ledger.

            • yellappa demoji

              Sir, please calculate the late fees as per law specified by us above and delay no. of days applicable to you from date of filing return till date you will file the return. Suppose for Feb 2018 you are filing return today late fees shall be 10*218 days=2180 for CGST and 2180 for SGST.

      Dear Experts, One of my client have registered in GST from July onwards. but has not filled any returns till date.

      My question is whether any penalty will be there for filing GSTR 3B for the period from July to Sept. if I am filing return today?

      For another month we are paying the penalty amount.

      • SAG Infotech

        CBEC has waived off the late fee on delay in filing GSTR-3B for the period from July-Sep.

    • Vijayakumar

      Sir, one of my clients filed GSTR 3B & GSTR1 in time from July onwards. Now pending only February return. My question is he accidentally omitted the invoice he raised as service charges in return GSTR3 & GSTR 1 (quarterly) July to January these bills omitted. Now can we shows this bills in GSTR3 of February? What is the procedure? Please help me. All the bills are previous date and client ready to pay Interest. Please help…

      • SAG Infotech

        Yes you can show the previously omitted bills in current month’s return, you have to show it under general column of inovices under reverse charge.

        • Vijayakumar

          Reverse charge? You mean column d. Inward supply (liable to reverse charge)?. Our omitted bills are outward supply. Can we enter it in the general column and remit the payment along with interest?

          • SAG Infotech

            Generally, it is inward supply, so you have to show it in under given column and also if you mention it in under outward column, ITC will not be available to you for such payment.

      Dear Experts,

      I have been regularly filing my GST returns since July. However, I have not included my Rental Income in any GST Returns.

      My question is whether I have to pay interest for the all the months (July/August) where GST council provided relief. Also, I have collected GST but not have deposited the same with Government.

      • SAG Infotech

        You have to mention it in all month’s return.

    • gayathri

      Sir,

      I have opted for regular from the composition. I submitted nil return for oct-dec and submitted gstr3b for dec month.but I could file both gstr4(oct-dec) and gstr3b(dec). I’m getting an error “liability for the previous tax period is yet to be paid” when I attempt to file the return. I have paid all cash. There is no pending liability to clear. What to do now? any solution?

    • G kumar

      Unaware of GST RCM on Freight Paid, since July 2017 to till date. Now the said issue comes to the knowledge. How to calculate interest and how to disclose the same in returns.

      Furthermore, we include the amount of freight (separately shown) in the invoice and charge GST at the same Rate as applicable to the product.

      • SAG Infotech

        The rate of GST on GTA services is 5% (if not availing ITC) and 12% (if availing ITC). Interest @ 18% p.a. to be charged on the due amount, which has to be calculated on the days’ basis.

    • Mohamed

      Hello sir, what is the liability date I should give? As I take GST only because of Amazon (to start a seller account on Amazon) I have no any registered company. I mean to resell products from manufacturers. Any drawbacks in this?

    • Khush

      Sir, we delayed our GSTR 3B return filing and tax payment by 1 day hence accordingly interest & the late fee will be levied. Our output tax is getting adjusted against our ITC and final tax payment is only in respect of exports and RCM (both to be strictly paid through cash).

      My query is, interest of 18% will be levied on-

      a) The net tax payable liability i.e on exports & RCM or
      b) The total tax liability computed before off-setting eligible ITC?

    • Gnaesh iyer

      In my first July GST payment, i paid Rs.14000/- in cess column by mistake instead of IGST column. My consultant asked me to pay the amount again in the proper column which I did. now, how do I adjust or get a refund of the other wrongly paid amount.

      • SAG Infotech

        The refund application has to be made in Form RFD 01 within 2 years from relevant date. The form should also be certified by a Chartered Accountant.

      Dear Sir,

      We have not filed GST from September due to some initial GST system issues and also our business very very less under 5 lakh for last 6 months. We have holiday packages business (tour operator category) which are mainly interstate in terms of input and output. So if it is applicable only for IGST? and we don’t need to pay any late penalty in this case. Please help.

      Thank you.

      • SAG Infotech

        Late fees of Rs. 50 per day (Rs. 20 per day for nil return) is applicable per return from due date of filing return to the actual date of filing. Also, interest is payable @18%p.a. applicable from the due date of payment to the actual date of payment of taxes if any.

    • Tamilselvi

      Hello sir, we have paid the tax during the month of December on time in January and filed the GSTR-3B on time, but we have missed one tax amount for an invoice, so how we have to pay the tax for the same? what is the procedure for the missing payment of tax? what is the penalty or interest calculation for such cases?

      • SAG Infotech

        You can pay the amount with 18% p.a. the interest rate applicable from the next day from the due date of payment which is 20th Jan in your case. If you have failed to add invoice amount in 3b then you can add it in GSTR 1. Late fees are applicable only on late filing of the return. So it will not be applicable on late payment of interest.

    • SRIRAKSHA

      HI SIR,

      TAXABLE AMOUNT OF A INVOICE HAS BEEN SHOWN IN GSTR-3B, TAX ON THE SAME HAS NOT BEEN SHOWN AND NOT PAID. KINDLY PROVIDE A METHOD IN WHICH IT CAN BE RECTIFIED IN GSTR-1.

      SHOULD THE TAX LIABILITY BE PAID ALONG WITH INTEREST AND LATE FEES?

      • SAG Infotech

        You have to pay the tax with interest and then file GSTR-1 adding details of such invoice and then when you file GSTR-3 for the concerned period, you can offset such liability with your payment.

    • mukesh

      Dear sir

      I submitted the return GSTR 4 but some changes in return can I do changes after submitting the return but not filled and I submitted the return on 18.01.2018 of oct to dec17 quarter but not filled till now. Please clarify that any penalty for non-filling of return and any penalty for Due tax payment.

      one other problem has I filled the NIL return of GSTR 4 of July to Sep 17 quarter Dtd 18.01.2018. and as per govt instruction, Jul to Sep quarter late fees penalty of return is waived.but when I submit the return the liability ledger is shown Rs 480 penalty i.e. Rs 20 per day and I paid the same amount.

      Please clarify how I take credit or refund of penalty amt.

      • SAG Infotech

        You cannot make changes in already submitted data, as reset option is only available in GSTR-3B. Delay in late filing will attract a late penalty of Rs. 50/day i.e.Rs.25 in each SGST and CGST (in case of tax liability) and Rs. 20/day i.e. Rs. 10 in each SGST and CGST (in case of NIL tax liability)

        As late fees for GSTR-3B only is waived off by the department, you have to pay penalty for delay in filing GSTR-4.

    • ranjan

      Dear All,

      Please suggest me. files GSTR-3b for the month of Oct’17 return with NIL. after filed successfully. Oct’17 GSTR-3b return show liability of late fee Rs.480 (CGST) and Rs.480 SGST)

      I create GST challan with the Rs.480 and 480 in penalty head & paid through NEFT and the same amount credited in cash ledger. Rs.980/-
      But my liability is the Late fee. Can I offset this liability of late fee from penalty head amount?

      • SAG Infotech

        Under GST, intra-head adjustments of cash ledger are not allowed. So you need to pay the late fee again and you can claim a refund of penalty amount wrongly paid.

      • Ravinder Singh

        You have deposited late fee under the wrong head. You can claim a refund for that. But you have to deposit late fee afresh as there is no provision for set off.

    • Sameer Sharma

      I am manufacturer based in Delhi and supply wooden goods in Uttar Pradesh only under IGST @ 28%. But failed to file return GSTR-3B on October & November due to the shortage of funds. But a few days back my accountant has filed the GSTR-3B return for the month of “October” by selecting an option of paying “Late Fee” and “GST Due amount” in next month (i.e. in November Month GSTR3B as per mentioned in system).

      After submitting & filling it successfully the system shows no liabilities in the October month in Section 7.1 of GSTR-3B but there were liabilities of Tax & Late Fee. And now when we have funds and my accountant is accessing the GST portal to file the GSTR-3B return for November, the system is not showing any liabilities from the previous month. The data/liabilities it shows is only for the month of November only as per details mentioned on basis of our Outwards & ITC supply.

      The same liabilities in the month of November are set as SET-OFF and no other pending dues are shown by the system under Section 7.1 of GSTR-3B (November). All Tax & Late fee cleared for the month of November. But what should we do in case of those pending liabilities of October??

      • SAG Infotech

        Liabilities of last period return will only be reflected after you have submitted (not filed) your current period return. After submitting, you have to go to payment column and then check liability and set off the same.

    • Somen das

      Dear Sir, I have done the GST regd. on 9th Aug 2017 ONLY to receive payment gateway for online consultancy business. I have been fined consecutively for two months August & September which I have already submitted. Following are the list of queries:

      1. Since the govt announced refund of late fees for the month of August & September, it is not showing in cash ledger as on date. No clue from GST office as there is no clarification on them as well. Any TAT in guidelines. Kindly guide me to avail the late fees.

      2.Can I close the GST registration as I am planning to close the present LLP firm(against which GST is registered) as I have not commenced any business from that firm? I am planning to open up under proprietorship name as payment gateway can be done with GST registration. If yes, what is the process?

      3. Any difference between the savings account and Individual current account as far as business is concerned with the new proprietorship firm.

      Kindly advice.

      • SAG Infotech

        1) As per announcement by department, they will prepare some changes in their system to reflect waived late fees amount in credit ledger, so either you have to wait or contact to department.

        2) As there is change in constitution of assessee, so you need to cancel the old registration and apply for new.

        Suspension of RCM provisions up to 31.3.2018 is there only in case of purchase from unregistered dealers. In case of GTA service, no suspension is there. So you will have to deposit RCM in case of services.

      • SAG Infotech

        The late fees are Rs. 50 per day. It is irrespective of the amount of tax.(except in case of nil return in which case it is 20 per day).Interest @18% is applicable on the amount short deposited from the due date to the date of deposit.

        • Aarti

          The late fee is applicable only for CGST & SGST and not for IGST. You can confirm it by login into GST portal under GST3B for the particular month under the table Interest & late fees wherein late fees for IGST is disabled.

          • SAG Infotech

            Late fees are only paid under CGST and SGST heads.

        No invoice wise details are required to be filled in GSTR 3B. You have to fill the details of sales in total. The sales detail of same month is to be filled in the same month. As you have missed showing details of sales of two bills so you have to fill these details on GSTR 1 of November only.

      Please suggest.

      Dear Sir

      1. I have opted for quarterly filing of returns, it is successfully updated
      2. I have NIL GSTR3B for Oct 2017 – status was SUBMITTED but omitted to change the status to FILED
      3. When I tried filing NIL for November 2017. Error is previous month return filing pending
      4. Hence I tried changing the status to FILED for GSTR3B of OCT 2017 on 18/12/2017. The system has accepted and status changed to FILED. The late fee payable amount displayed.

      How to make payment of this late fee?

      This late fee amount is not displayed in the NOV 2017 GSTR 3B? but error message of pending to be paid displayed and not allowed for filing NIL return for NOV 17. How to solve this and file NIL return for November 2017. The last date is 20/12/17. but the system is not allowing. following error message displayed.

      “You have late-fee liability for the current tax period or carry forward late-fee liability for the previous tax period, arising due to the delayed filing of GSTR-3B.”

      I have made e-payment of above late fee, it is available in my cash ledger under FEES. How to offset this liability?

      • SAG Infotech

        In this case, you first need to pay the late fees by creating challan and then offset such liability under GSTR-3B of November month and then only you can file the return of November month.

        • srinivasan

          I have the same case and I have paid my late fees but even though it not allowed to me to file the November Nil return. Can you please explain how to offset the pending liability for November GSTR 3B.

          • S.K.Hajra

            In case you have filed October return after the due date and there was a difference in Submit date and Filed date, the same will show as late fees for the November return. The same needs to be offset in November 3B return after you submit but before you file the return. Thereafter you should be able to file your return. Remember not to choose Nil return while options come as a return which shows Late Fees will not be considered a “NIL Return”.

    • Pramoth

      Dear Sag infotech,

      • SAG Infotech

        As you have registered in September month, you need to file returns from September month onwards. Late fees will be Rs.20/day in case of nil liability and Rs.50/day in case of tax liability. However late fees for the month of September has been waived off by the department.

    • Arpit

      I have filed GSTR 3B for the month of October on 16/12/2017. I forgot to make the late payment fees but when I realised I created challan and made the late payment fees.

      Please help

      • SAG Infotech

        As you have paid the late fees, so you now in November return you first have to offset the liability of late fees with your cash ledger and then you are allowed to file the return.

    • parveen kumar

      Sir

      I am filling Gstr3b for November month on 17-Dec-2017 and this message is showing again and again. Late fee for the month includes previous month’s late fee charged due to delay in filing of the return. The calculation is [Date of Filing – (Date of Submission or Due date of Filing, whichever is later)] * [25/day (in case of any liability) or 10/day (in case of nil liability)] * per Act (CGST/SGST)

      • SAG Infotech

        This means while filing a return for the previous month, you have not filed the return on the same date of submitting the data on a portal, so you first need to pay the late fee liability pertaining to the delay in days from submitting the data to the filing of the return.

    • PIYUSH PATEL

      I have filed 3B for the month of Oct as nil, but now I have observed that a bill was raised.

        Revision facility does not exist under GST, you can only make changes while filing GSTR-1 for the concerned period. Interest @ 24% will have to be paid.

    • Hope Pohthmi

      Respected Sir/Madam,
      I have submitted GSTR 3B for October on 21-Nov-2017 along with a penalty of late fee Rs 50 (CGST Rs25 SGST Rs25) but I have made the payment for a late fee on 7-12-2017 and filed the return on the same date of payment. Later on, when I try to file GSTR 3B for November 2017 on 16-Dec-2017 it shows late fees of Rs 800 (CGST Rs400, SGST Rs.400 ) but the last date has not yet been over. I have called GST helpdesk and informed them about it, they told me that it might be of technical error. So, Sir I just want you to clarify my doubts about it whether there might be any other error with regard to the filing of return of GSTR 3B.

      Thank You.
      With regards,
      (Hope Pohthmi)

      • SAG Infotech

        No sir, you have to contact the department.

      • Charu

        The late fees appearing on Nov 17 GSTR 3B is correct as the department treats the submit date and filing date as different. Any delay in submitting is displayed as of late fees in current month itself which in your case is Rs 50 for one day (20-Nov-17 to 21-Nov-17). Filing of return is complete when the return is filed with DSC/EVC i.e. 7-12-17 in your case. The day in the filing of return after submitting date 16 days from 21-Nov-17 to 7-Dec-17 is displayed as the penalty in next month GSTR 3B i.e. 50X16days = Rs 800.

        Interest @ 18% is to be paid on delay payment of taxes and Rs. 200/day (Rs 100 in CGST and Rs. 100 in SGST) penalty is to be paid for delay filing of the return. If your tax liability is NIL from October month onwards, then a penalty for late filing will be reduced to Rs.20/day.

      DEAR SIR,

      BY MISTAKE WE HAVE PAID LATE FEE IN THE IGST COLUMN… IN WHAT SCENARIOS I COULD UTILISE THE SAME. Please clarify.

      • SAG Infotech

        if your payment pertains to period July to Sept, then the amount will automatically be transferred to your tax column since the late fees have been waived off for the given period.

    • Rani

      Sir, We paid tax and submitted GSTR 3B for the month of September on 19.10.2017, but filed on 20th November”17. For GSTR 3B of October submitted on 21st Nov with late fee CGST-20, SGST-20, but not able to file the return for October”17. Do we penalty or Interest. How much we have to pay? How to calculate.

      • SAG Infotech

        Yes, you have to pay Rs 20 under CGST and SGST each if your tax liability is nil. As you are saying that you are unable to file a return then there may be some technical issue so you can contact the department for that.

      • Vijayakumar S

        if only nil return filing late fee is Rs.20/- each, other wise you should pay SGST – Rs.100/- and CGST – Rs.100/- per day

    • Bharat

      I am a registered GTA service provider and I give service to registered builder and wrongly I charge 5% GST on forwarding basis in September month and in September month return I filled as an exempted supply and builder claim the ITC of 5%, So my question is what can I pay GST on forwarding charge @5% on forwarding charge if service recipient is registered and can I pay tax in September In the month of October return with interest @18%.

      • SAG Infotech

        The registered builder may claim ITC by adding details in GSTR-2 under the head “Add Missing Invoices”. After that, it will be reflected in your GSTR-1A. you may approve the transaction. You have to deposit the amount with interest.

    • Raghav

      Hi, I pay my GST regularly every month I have a query. Due to some technical error, I couldn’t pay GST 3B on time, I tried to pay through both NEFT and Net banking but both didn’t work. Now my question is, in the case of NEFT what shall be my amount to be paid after 5 days? as I have read somewhere that the CPIN remains valid for 7 days. so will the amount keep increasing or I can pay them for the one I wish to.?

      • SAG Infotech

        CPIN remains valid for 15 days. In case challan is generated for payment of taxes and CPIN is received you can use such challan for 15 days to pay taxes and file GSTR-3B return, However, in case GSTR-3B is filed after the due date interest and the late fee is to be deposited in cash by new challan.

      Sir, Our company turnover comes under Rs 1.5 Cr, So we need to file quarterly basis .. right? We have filed for the period July to Sep and October to December can be done in January 2018? Quarterly filing means including GSTR 3B, right?

      Please clarify my doubt, when time permits.
      Thanks

      • SAG Infotech

      Sir, the composition dealer has used old series bill for outward. should we need to make new bills with GST no. on it. or we should use old bills for tax purpose. We want to know should we revise the bills or there is no need to revise old bills without GST number.

      • SAG Infotech

        As you are registered under composition scheme so you have to mention the GST number on the invoice. You can use the old bill but you have to mention GST number. Now you have to revise the bills that you have already issued.

    • mukund

      I have taken the tax on total turnover instead of taking on taxable turnover and by mistake, i have already submitted the return. Besides this, I have generated challan for the tax taken on total turnover.

      please guide me how to adjust/revise /any remedy for my wrongdoing?

      • SAG Infotech

        You can only revise the data in the return for the succeeding month.

    • Jonty

      Hello. Regarding late filing of returns and penalty attached to it, if a registered person has not filed the return for 3 months or more, then since he has missed more than one filling due date, so will the maximum fine of 5000 be multiplied by the number of due dates missed? For example, if a person has failed to file 6 consecutive returns, so will it 5000 multiplied 6, i.e 30,000 maximum late fee?

      Thanks.

      • SAG Infotech

        The penalty would be payable for the period in which the taxpayer failed to furnish the return up to a maximum penalty of Rs.5000. If GST return for a month is not filed, then the GST return for the next month cannot be filed by the taxpayer Hence, late filing of GST return will have a cascading effect leading to heavy fines and penalty.

        • Jonty

          Thanks for responding. Just to be clear, if one misses 3 consecutive due dates, his fine would be only 5000 maximum for all those missed returns?

    • arvind

      We have uploaded the video in google via youtube and generated income. We should charge GST or not?

    • Bhavesh Savla

      The above rates are only for CGST, right? The same will also apply to SGST. hence the rates mentioned above will double. Can you confirm the same?

      How or where can the interest paid amount be adjusted?

      Thanks

      • SAG Infotech

        You have to pay the late fee amount under fees head. Interest amount you have to show under interest head.

    • Tivesh

      Dear Concerned,

      I have paid tax amount under IGST for the month of August in the same month and submitted returns for Aug on 24th Sep. For which there was a late fee of Rs.800 (400 CGST & 400 SGST). This late fee, I paid inadvertently under IGST section during 29th Sep. Upon clarification from the Dept, I repaid again the same late fee (Rs.800) under CGST and SGST separately on 16th Oct. upon submission, I could file the returns successfully. However, for the month of September, there is an additional late fee of Rs.4400 (2200 CGST and 2200 SGST) has been levied which I got to know yesterday. This late fee (5200) looks huge amount for me to pay despite submitting the returns on the 4th day after due date. Do I need to pay or can I expect any waiver in this regard?

      Your suggestion is much appreciated in this regard

    • swathi

      • SHEREEF A

        introducing the late fee in delay for the filing of return and it has frozen through Gst site from 30-09-2017 and normally the traders, tax practitioners etc … thought that the late fee has been temporarily withdrawn by the govt due to difficulty in initial stages and more recycling process. In the meanwhile the govt.. has unscientifically charged a late fee with retrospective effect. It is the violation of natural justice and more sufferings in small traders and related colleagues and we will expect a favourable decision by the Gst council and it will be held on 24th Oct 2017 to redressing all unnecessary liabilities and sufferings by the dealers, chartered accountants, Tax practitioners etc

      Will GSTR 3B For the month of August will be extended. On newspaper it was published that No penalty and interest will be charged for the two months – July 2017 and August 2017 as a grace period and for learning and filing.

    • D.K.S.

      sir, yesterday i.e on 24/09/2017 i tried to file the GSTR-3B for Aug. The scenario is like this-

      1- IGST purchase tax= 10000

      2- no IGST TAX liability.

      3- there is CGST tax liability of rs. 5000 and input cgst tax credit=1000

      4- sgst tax liability is 5000 and sgst input credit=1000
      i paid rs 400 each for late filling penalty yesterday.
      i am trying to set of tax liability as under-
      1- Using IGST, WHICH is total rs.10000, for cgst which is 5000 ie 5000-1000( cgst input credit)=4000 then rs 4000 out of IGST CREDIT,

      THE cgst should be =0 liability.

      2- then SGST tax liability, which is rs. 5000 and input sgst credit rs. 1000=rs 4000 as bal. tax liability which i am setting off from rs. 4000 out of IGST balance which is rs 6000( 10000-4000). then this also should be 0.

      BUT massage is showing that – NO SUFFICIENT BALANCE.

      Further also let me know whether interest to be payable of late filling as like late penalty. i have not paid since no tax liability after the utilisation of IGST, CGST AND SGST input credit.

      Please Help

        Late fee penalty is a type of fine for contravention of law, which is compulsorily to be paid, and this amount never allowed as ITC or refund.

    • Mithan Gupta

      GSTR 3B is submitted with wrong GST liability but GSTR 3B isn’t filed for correction of data in GSTR 1,2,3 and corrected GST amount is paid. Whether there will arise any liability of interest or penalty as such GST liability is not set off on due date?

      • SAG Infotech

        As per latest notification by CBEC, GSTR-3B is to be filed till the months of December, 2017 and filing GSTR-3B for next period will only allow when you have successfully filed the GSTR-3B for the previous months. So to avoiding penal provisions, better to file GSTR-3B.

    • Govind

      GSTR-3B August Not Paid Let Fess Amount But RCM paid July-17 and August RCM Not Benefit and RCM Paid July-17 Not Setup

      • SAG Infotech

        Due date for filing GSTR 3B is 20/9/2017 for august so there is no late fee liability. And the tax which you have paid under RCM can be utilised as credit against tax payable.

        • JANARTHANAN

          Sir, For Aug’17 – GSTR 3B return filing after due date 20/09/2017 – there is no late fee charges or we need to pay Rs.100/per day. For Aug’17 – Tax paid after due date 20/09/2017 – there is no late fee charges or we need to pay 18% interest on day basis. Kindly clarify me.

          • SAG Infotech

            For GSTR-3b for the month of july and august, late filing fees is waived off but interest is chargeable on delay payment of service tax.

            • komal

              For Aug they demand for GST return late fee. is there any notification which provides the waiving off late fee for GSTR 3b for the month of August 2017.

            • SAG Infotech

              Late fee is only waived for the month of July’s return, you need to pay penalty for august month’s return.

            • JANARTHANAN

              Sir, in aforesaid conversation you said GSTR 3B late fees is waived off for July’17 and Aug’17. But in below KOMAL conversation you said GSTR 3B late fees is waived off only for July’17 and need to pay penalty for late filing for Aug’17 GSTR 3B.

              WHICH IS CORRECT ??? As per your above advice, GSTR 3B for Aug’17 is not filed with in due date.

            • SAG Infotech

              Late filing fees for the return of the month of Aug’17 has not waived off.
