GST ANNUAL RETURNS

[SAFETAB LIFESCIENCE]

Dear Experts,

In our area Commercial Tax Department (now GST) friends and GST consultants are telling that only less than 10% of the assesses have filed GSTR 9 & 9C. What is the status in overall India. Is there any chance of the extending the due date for filing the same. Came to understand that Auditors are also struggling.

[KASTURI SETHI]

Between 15% and 20%. Likely to be extended up to 30th November but still notification is awaited.

[DR.MARIAPPAN GOVINDARAJAN]

All are expecting for extension but the Government is to decide.

[Ganeshan Kalyani]

More than half of the State's tax practitioner and consultants have represented to the Council for extending the due date. However, it is good to file the return now only. As the extension would increase the backlog. One may feel relax after extending the due date is extended but later on work will pile up.

[KASTURI SETHI]

Last date for filing GSTR 9, 9A and 9C has been extended up to 30.11.19 vide ROD Order No.07/19-CT dated 26.8.19.

It is very difficult to file HSN wise purchase details for a registered manufacturing unit.....sometimes we receive a tax invoice with more than 5 HSN codes...in case of office stationery,Tools & Milling Stores,Etc.

To sort HSN wise purchase of each commodity is really difficult job and further it does,nt serve any purpose..

A simple statement/ reconcillation of GST invoices GSTIN wise shall solve the purpose..

GST council must look into it...Almost all GST practioners have demanded this...

Dear Sir,

Your view is full of substance. It is a practical problem. Make representation through Industries Association and email to the Chairperson, GST Council. Next meeting of GST Council is to be held in September. (may be 20th.)

[Ganeshan Kalyani]

Sir , most of the representations made to the Council had this point mentioned in it. Table 8A in particular is compared with ITC taken as per 3B. Because of supplier mistake of not showing the supply in B2B makes the buyer to pay tax. So this table to be allowed to edit manually.

[Ganeshan Kalyani]

Sir please refer press release dated 4.6.19 and 3.7.19 on GST return. Also refer ICAI guidelines on GST return. These you can find in Google.
