GST Return Filing in Ahmedabad – Accurate, On Time, Every Month
GST compliance is an ongoing monthly obligation. Every registered business must file GSTR-1 (outward supplies) and GSTR-3B (summary return with tax payment) every month or quarter depending on their turnover. Missing deadlines, filing incorrectly or failing to reconcile input tax credit are the three most common GST compliance failures – and all three attract penalties, interest and eventually notices from the GST department.
At OakRise Fincorp, we handle complete GST return filing for businesses in Ahmedabad – from data collection and invoice verification to return preparation, reconciliation and filing. We ensure every return is filed correctly and on time so your business maintains clean compliance and maximises legitimate input tax credit claims.
GST Return Filing Services We Offer
GSTR-1 Filing
Monthly or quarterly return for outward supplies (sales) with correct HSN/SAC codes, invoice details, B2B and B2C transactions, debit notes, credit notes and export invoices. Filed by the 11th of the following month for monthly filers.
GSTR-3B Filing
Monthly summary return declaring your total tax liability, input tax credit claimed, tax paid and cash/credit ledger balance. We reconcile ITC with GSTR-2B before filing to ensure you claim only eligible credit.
GSTR-2B Reconciliation
Monthly reconciliation of your purchase invoices with the ITC reflected in GSTR-2B to identify missing credit, duplicate entries and ineligible ITC before filing GSTR-3B. This is the most common area where businesses lose money.
CMP-08 (Composition Dealers)
Quarterly statement of self-assessed tax payment for businesses registered under the composition scheme. Filed by the 18th of the month following the quarter.
Late Fee Management
Calculating applicable late fees for delayed returns, advising on filing pending returns to stop interest accumulation and applying for late fee waivers under applicable amnesty schemes where available.
Amendments and Corrections
Correcting errors in filed returns – wrong invoice details, incorrect tax amounts, missed invoices – through amendments in subsequent returns within the prescribed period.
The Cost of Non-Compliance
Late filing of GSTR-1 attracts a late fee of ₹50 per day (₹20 per day for nil returns) up to a maximum of ₹10,000 per return. GSTR-3B late filing attracts the same fee structure plus interest at 18% per annum on the outstanding tax from the due date. For businesses filing both returns monthly, non-compliance costs compound quickly. We set up automated reminders and data collection workflows so deadlines are never missed.
Beyond penalties, frequent late filing or non-filing can result in suspension of GST registration, blocking of e-way bill generation and in serious cases, cancellation of registration – any of which can halt your business operations.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the due date for GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B filing?
For monthly filers (turnover above ₹5 crore), GSTR-1 is due by the 11th and GSTR-3B by the 20th of the following month. For quarterly filers (QRMP scheme, turnover up to ₹5 crore), GSTR-1 is due by the 13th of the month after the quarter and GSTR-3B by the 22nd/24th (varies by state). We track all deadlines for our clients.
What happens if GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B data does not match?
Mismatches between GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B are flagged by the GST system and can result in scrutiny notices. More critically, if your GSTR-1 shows higher sales than GSTR-3B, the difference appears as unpaid tax. We reconcile both returns before filing to ensure consistency.
Can I claim ITC on all purchases?
No. ITC is not available on certain inputs – personal consumption items, motor vehicles (with exceptions), food and beverages, club memberships, works contract services for immovable property and goods or services used for exempt supplies. Incorrectly claimed ITC must be reversed with interest. We verify every ITC claim before including it in GSTR-3B.
I have pending GST returns from previous months. Can I still file them?
Yes. Pending returns can be filed at any time with applicable late fees and interest on tax due. The late fee for GSTR-3B is ₹50 per day (nil return ₹20 per day) capped at ₹10,000 per return. We advise on clearing the backlog in the most cost-effective order, taking advantage of any available amnesty schemes.
Do I need to file a GST return even if there are no transactions in a month?
Yes. A nil return must be filed if you had no sales or purchases in a month. Late fee for nil GSTR-3B is ₹20 per day capped at ₹500. Late fee for nil GSTR-1 is ₹20 per day capped at ₹500. Not filing nil returns consistently can lead to registration suspension.
