Frequently Asked Questions
Who is required to register for GST in India?
Businesses with annual aggregate turnover exceeding ₹40 lakhs (₹20 lakhs for services) must register for GST. Certain categories like inter-state suppliers, e-commerce operators, and TDS/TCS deductors must register regardless of turnover.
What are the GST return filing deadlines?
GSTR-1 is due by the 11th of the following month. GSTR-3B (monthly) is due by the 20th. Quarterly GSTR-1 filers have different deadlines. GSTR-9 (annual) is due by December 31 of the following financial year.
What happens if I miss a GST filing deadline?
Late filing attracts a late fee of ₹50 per day (₹25 each for CGST and SGST) or ₹20 per day for nil return filers, plus interest at 18% per annum on the unpaid tax amount.
Can you help resolve old service tax disputes?
Yes. We have extensive experience handling pre-GST era service tax and VAT disputes, including appeals, show cause notices, and reconciliation of legacy liabilities.
What is Input Tax Credit (ITC) and how can it benefit my business?
ITC allows you to offset the GST paid on your purchases against the GST you collect on sales. Proper ITC management can significantly reduce your net GST liability. We help you maximise legitimate ITC claims.
