Need clarification for half yearly return (31/03).
Should we consider (cut-off date as 31/03) – for finalizing the list of pending invoices as of date OR
shall we consider all invoices in period of Oct-March 2020 which are unpaid for the total period of 45 days?
Please reply.
As per notification all the invoice o/s for the more then 45 days as on 31.03.2020 will have to be reported irrespective date of invoice.eg if invoice dt 01.04.19 and it is o/s as on 31.03.20 same shall be reported
YES, it is required to be shown in return as it is still outstanding

Is there a provision for filing a revised return in case if we have by mistake mentioned an inflated amount? I have inadvertently mentioned an incorrect amount. Please help.
We are MSME and providing service to one Company. They have held our payment and have not specified any reason for the last two years. Can we see the form filled by other Company on MCA and check if our outstanding has been reported or not.
Please clarify me, If I am filed Half yearly return and one MSME small party providing me service from April to September and issue 7 invoice in different date. But as on 30/09/2019 only last two bills is pending which exceed the 45 days limit and rest 5 invoices paid successfully in April to September but after 60 days. So we need to show the rest 5 or not? Because of due only 2 invoices as on 30/09/2019 but no one invoice paid under 45 Days because of it’s our agreed pay policy.
In our opinion only outstanding invoices needs to be reported. For further clarification please contact your practicing professional.
The Company made payment after 45 days (as per their 90 days terms) but no outstanding as on 30.09.2019. For that company has to file MSME form or not? Because zero amount is not taking in MSME Form as Total outstanding amount. There is a check form error.
Supplier 6 invoice raised during the year-2019-20 in which 2 invoices are delay payment after 45 days
can we upload all the invoice details or only the delayed payment invoices?
Please clarify.
What exactly do we need to report in initial return? like it is the complete list of the outstanding amount or just the amount of invoice whose payment is not made within 45 days?
For e.g
Invoice date 15/10/2018 – Rs. 5000/- payment done on 14/12/2018.
so as on date on 22/01/2019, there is no due.
So do we need to report this in 1) Initial Return? or 2) In Half Yearly Return
Any amount which is outstanding for more than 45 days to MSME registered entities, only that amount shall be disclosed in initial return.
But if we filed half-yearly return then still we have to show only that entries which is outstanding in 30/09/2019
