Types of GST Returns

Filing Frequency and Due Dates

The filing frequency and due dates for GST Returns vary depending on the turnover and registration type. Regular taxpayers typically need to file monthly returns, while composition scheme taxpayers have quarterly filing requirements. Timely filing is essential to avoid penalties.

Amendments and Rectifications
