What it means

What is GST return filing?

GST return filing is the process of reporting business transactions, tax details, and compliance information to GST authorities through the applicable return form. Every registered taxpayer may need to file returns based on their registration type, business activity, turnover, and filing frequency.

Even with no sales or taxable transactions in a period, a registered taxpayer may still need to complete nil GST return filing. Accurate filing helps businesses avoid unnecessary late fees, maintain proper ITC records, reduce sales-purchase mismatches, and keep their GST registration compliant.

A GST return typically includes

Outward supplies (sales)
Inward supplies (purchases)
Taxable and exempt supplies
Input Tax Credit
Reverse-charge transactions
Tax liability and payments
Credit and debit notes
GSTR-1 vs GSTR-3B

Two returns. One ledger. Zero mismatches, if it's caught in time.

GSTR-1 is a statement of your outward supplies — the invoices you issued (B2B, B2C, exports, credit/debit notes, amendments, HSN summary). This is what your customers rely on for their own ITC visibility. GSTR-3B is a summary return where you declare total tax liability, claim eligible Input Tax Credit, and actually pay the tax due. Both need to stay consistent with each other — mismatches between GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B are one of the most common triggers for GST notices.

How our online GST filing process works

01

Select a GST Filing Plan

Choose monthly filing, quarterly filing, nil returns, annual returns, e-commerce GST filing, or pending return support — our team helps confirm the right fit.

02

Share Business Records

Securely share sales invoices, purchase records, expense details, GST reports, and previous return information.

03

Record Review

We review sales and purchase transactions, tax calculations, GST liability, and previous filing details.

04

ITC and Mismatch Checking

Input Tax Credit is reviewed by comparing purchase records against GST portal information, flagging missing invoices, incorrect GSTIN details, duplicate entries, and supplier-related mismatches.

05

Return Preparation and Confirmation

The applicable return is prepared, and tax liability, ITC, sales, and purchase details are shared with you for confirmation before filing.

06

Filing and Acknowledgement

After approval, the return is submitted and filing confirmation is provided for your records.

Input Tax Credit

Input Tax Credit reconciliation support

Input Tax Credit reconciliation compares your purchase records with GST portal information to identify differences — missing supplier invoices, incorrect GSTIN, wrong invoice numbers or dates, tax-value mismatches, duplicate entries, and supplier filing delays.

  • Identify missing supplier invoices

  • Support annual return filing
  • Reduce differences between your books and GST returns

Reconciliation doesn't automatically make every purchase credit eligible — eligibility still depends on applicable GST rules.

Special situations

GST filing support for special situations

Nil GST Return Filing

Registered businesses may still need to file nil GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B even with no sales or purchases in a period — a common compliance gap many businesses aren't aware of.

Late GST Return Filing

Delayed filing brings late fees, interest liability, and potential notices. We help identify pending periods, review available records, and prepare the applicable returns to get you current.

QRMP Return Filing

Eligible taxpayers (turnover up to ₹5 crore) can file GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B quarterly under QRMP while paying tax monthly via PMT-06. We help with quarterly filing, monthly payment review, and optional invoice reporting through IFF.

Annual GST Return Filing

GSTR-9 consolidates a full financial year's GST records, and GSTR-9C adds a self-certified reconciliation statement for businesses above ₹5 crore turnover. We help organise records, reconcile GSTR-2B, and prepare both filings.

By business type

For E-Commerce Sellers

Support for sellers on Amazon, Flipkart, Meesho, Myntra, Shopify, and other marketplaces — reviewing sales reports, returned/cancelled orders, TCS records, settlement reports, and multi-GSTIN filing.
