Filing Trans 1 is mandatory before GSTR 3B if paying duty with electronic credit ledger, not if paying in cash. A user inquired whether filing Trans 1 is necessary before submitting GSTR 3B, especially since they have not received C and F forms. A respondent clarified that if an entity intends to pay duty using the electronic credit ledger, filing Trans 1 before GSTR 3B is mandatory. However, if the entity plans to pay the entire tax in cash, filing Trans 1 beforehand is not required. (AI Summary)
