Frequently Asked Questions
1. What happens if GSTR-7 is not filed on time?
If GSTR-7 is filed late, the TDS credit will not be reflected in the deductee’s electronic cash ledger until the return is submitted. This may delay the deductee’s ability to utilize the credit for GST payments.
2. Can a taxpayer file GSTR-3B first and submit GSTR-1 later?
Yes. The GST portal allows separate filing of both returns. However, businesses should ensure that the sales details reported in GSTR-1 match the tax liability disclosed in GSTR-3B.
3. Why should businesses file GSTR-1 within the due date every month?
GSTR-1 contains invoice-wise outward supply details. If it is filed late, customers may not see the invoices in their GST records, which can delay their Input Tax Credit claims.
4. What is the impact of late filing of GSTR-6 by an Input Service Distributor?
Late filing of GSTR-6 can delay the transfer of common input tax credit to branch offices or units. This may create difficulties in reconciling GST returns at the recipient’s end.
5. Do QRMP taxpayers need to file both GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B?
Yes. Filing only one return is not enough. QRMP taxpayers are required to furnish outward supply details through GSTR-1 and report tax liability through GSTR-3B for the quarter.
6. Is GSTR-8 required for every online seller operating through an e-commerce platform?
No. GSTR-8 is filed by e-commerce operators who collect TCS under GST. Sellers using such platforms are generally not required to file GSTR-8 themselves.
7. Can a non-resident taxable Person skip GSTR-5 if there were no transactions during the month?
No. A Nil GSTR-5 should still be filed for the applicable tax period. Failure to file the return may result in non-compliance under GST provisions.
8. What happens if CMP-08 is not filed by a composition taxpayer?
A delay in filing CMP-08 can lead to interest on outstanding tax dues. Continued non-compliance may also result in notices from the GST department and other compliance-related issues.
9. How can Ebizfiling help businesses manage multiple GST due dates in July 2026?
Ebizfiling assists businesses with GST return preparation, review, filing, and compliance tracking. This helps taxpayers stay updated with due dates and reduce the risk of missed filings.
