With WrkPlan, you can easily file your GSTR1, GSTR 3B, and GSTR9 and also track all your other returns and their due dates for hassle-free tax settlement.
GSTR-1
This is a monthly return that records all outbound supplies of goods and services, and shows detailed reports on sales transactions, debit and credit notes, and revised invoices. It shows the sales transactions of the business for that month only. GST-registered taxpayers must file this return within 10 days after the month’s end, with possible extensions granted by the commissioner.
GSTR-2A
This is a document populated with supplier details from GSTR-1 for verification. Recipients can accept, reject, modify, or keep pending invoices using this information. Changes are made by the recipient in GSTR-2. This document is accessible to all registered taxpayers under GST for return filing. Discrepancies can be corrected in GSTR-2 by the recipient between the 11th and 15th of the following month.
GSTR-2B
The static return, essential for recipients of goods and services, has been presented monthly since August 2020. It contains consistent ITC data spanning a significant historical period,accessible from the previous month’s GSTR-1 filing date to the current month’s filing. Released on the 12th of each month, it allows ample time for GSTR-3B filing.
GSTR-3B
The GSTR-3B form simplifies monthly supply summaries, allowing GST taxpayers to declare their liabilities. It helps ensure timely tax payments, avoiding penalties. Both suppliers and recipients must file separately to prevent delays. Even those with zero tax liability must file it. The deadline is the 20th of the next month, with an option for NIL return if no transactions occur.
GSTR-4
The GSTR-4 is a quarterly form for taxpayers enrolled in the Composition Scheme, applicable to those with a turnover of up to Rs. 1.5 crores. It requires a fixed-rate tax payment and returns filing every quarter, aiming to ease compliance for smaller taxpayers.
