Confusion Over Return Periods for DVAT Composition Scheme: Quarterly vs. Monthly Filing Requirements Explained A discussion on a forum addressed the return period for a works contractor registered under the DVAT department who opted for a composition scheme. The main query was whether the return period is determined by turnover or remains quarterly. One response indicated that the return period is based on the tax period, which varies by state. Another stated that under the composition scheme, the tax period is quarterly. A third response clarified that VAT returns must be filed monthly, even if there are no receipts, requiring a nil return in such cases.
