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

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?
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
last two years we don’t have any work in our company so we fail to mentation nil in GST at present we have some work
so we have visited our near GST office to know account status and the officer told us to pay fine nearly 1.5lack fine. we have

Dear Sir,
We have paid GST for the month of March 19, on 29/05/2019. GSTR3B was filed on 05/06/2019. which period( no. of days), to be considered for calculation of Int @ 18% for late payment- No. of days delayed for payment or No. of days filing of GSTR 3B. Please help us to calculate the exact interest amt.
Interest is calculated up to the date of payment. So you have to pay interest till 29/05/2019 i.e. for no. of days delayed for payment.
For delay in filing of the return, you have to pay the late fee.
I have paid GST through net banking after creating CIN every month. But due to DSC problem, I did not file gstr3b for few months. What are the implications, shall I need to pay interest or late fee. Kindly clarify.
You have paid GST every month on time so there is no liability of Interest but you have not to file GSTR-3B for few months so Late fee will be applicable.
I am here registered taxpayer for GST. I have remitted my tax every month 20th. I have not filed the monthly return 3b on the due date in the situation I would like to you know whether I have to pay interest and late fee. kindly clarify how to calculate with an example.
Thank you

if interest liabilities. kindly clarify how to calculate with an example
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, Now I am going file 3B for the month of September 2018, I have Tax Liability also How Many days I have calculated late payment interest Please Suggest.
The due date for September 2018 was 25/10/2018, so if you have not filed the return yet, you need to pay the interest @ 18% p.a. from 26/10/2018 to date of filing of return.

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:
1. whether interest is payable or not?
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.
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.
1. Interest is payable @15%
2. Interest is payable on INR 500.00
3. Interest on days*18%*500.00
I added some bills of Previous Months in Subsequent Month. Do I have to Pay Interest@18% even though I have ITC Left?
As payment got delayed by 1 month, you have to pay interest on yourself at the time of filing of GSTR -3B for the next month, if you didn’t pay the same, dept. will raise the demand while filing GSTR-3B for the next period.

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.
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

The penalty for sept,2017 shall be 10*423= Rs. 4230 in CGST and Rs. 4230 in SGST.
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.
(2) Yes, you can show the same and pay tax on reverse charge basis in cash
(3) Interest to be paid @ 18% from the due date of payment till the date of actual payment
(4) Yes. ITC can be claimed after payment
I would like to know what is NiL Return.
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
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
Sir,
Kya late fee jo previous months ki collect ho rahe hai vo map kar di jayegi
No late fees paid earlier will not be refunded.
I have a no returns to file this month, still, I need to pay the penalty if I miss the deadline?
Yes, since even NIL return is mandatory, the penalty will be levied if you miss the deadline of GSTR’s.
