He also writes regularly in local as well as national publications. Besides this he holds various positions in bodies such as ICAI, GCCI, College bodies, Rotary etc.

In the previous edition we had discussed the essential ingredients which makes one liable for GST We were to continue the discussion in this edition, however there are certain important compliances which are due by the end of this month, hence we will focus on them.

Most importantly, these compliances are one-time b e n e f i t s g i v e n b y t h e Government to taxpayers who may have missed out on doing them earlier. Hence it is all the more crucial to complete them in the given time frame.

1. Registered persons who failed to furnish the annual return (GSTR-9) by the due date for any of the financial years 2017-18, 2018-19, 201920, 2020-21 or 2021-22 can avoid hefty late fees. They need to furnish the pending annual returns between 1st April 2023 to 30th June 2023. If this is done, then the total amount of late fee under section 47 of the said Act payable in respect of the said return, shall stand waived which is in excess of ten thousand rupees (Rs 10000 CGST+ Rs 10000 SGST) Therefore such people can do the compliance at reduced late fee of only Rs 20000 in total as against much higher amounts.

2. Once GST registration is cancelled, a final return called GSTR 10 is to be filed. Sec. 45 of CGST Act states that every registered person whose registration is cancelled or surrendered, must furnish a final return in Form GSTR-10 within 3 months of the date of cancellation or the date of cancellation order, whichever is later. For registered persons who failed to furnish the final return (GSTR-10) in the past, heavy late fees apply. The current late fees are Rs

100 per day of delay, subject to maximum of Rs 5,000. Similar provisions exist in the SGST. Thus the total late fees accumulate to Rs. 200 per day subject to maximum of Rs 10,000. Now, if such persons f i l e t h e i r G S T R 1 0 b y 30.06.2023, then the late fee payable shall be restricted to Rs. 1000 only.

3. The next relief has been g i v e n t o C o m p o s i t i o n taxpayers who have not filed their annual return in FORM GSTR-4 for F.Y. 2017-18, 201819, 2019-20, 2020-21 & 202122 till date. Where there is additional tax payable as per

GSTR-4, maximum late fee is capped at Rs 500 (250+250). To avail this benefit, the taxpayer must file GSTR-4 between 1st April 2023 to 30th June 2023

4. A registered person, whose registration has been cancelled on or before 31st December 2022 for non-filing of returns and who has failed to apply for revocation of cancellation within 30 days from the date of service of cancellation order, has also been granted relief.

Such person must file all pending returns, making payment of taxes due as per such returns, along with applicable interest , penalty and late fee. Thereafter, he must apply for revocation of cancellation of registration on or before 30th June 2023. No further extension of time period for filing application for revocation of cancellation shall be available.

Above are some of the i m p o r t a n t t i m e - l i m i t extensions granted by the Government, with benefit of highly reduced late fee. It is prudent for all taxpayers to c h e c k t h e i r p e n d i n g compliances and take benefit of above schemes.
