There are 29 states and 7 Union Territories in India.  The Central Government and the State Governments and Union Territories have levied taxes and duties and there are various forms of returns prescribed by the Central Government, State Governments and Union Territories and there are various dates for various returns to be filed in each and every state and Union Territory.

The tax levies already made by the Central Government and State Governments and Union Territories were categorised under Goods and Services Tax regime as IGST, CGST and SGST and the turnover under IGST, CGST and SGST will be disclosed in the same return forms. 

A return furnished without payment of full tax due as per such return shall not be treated as a valid return for allowing input tax credit in respect of supplies made by such person.

Input tax credit is eligible only after filing a valid GST return.

LATE FILING FEES FOR BELATED SUBMISSION OF RETURNS

Late filing fees shall be Rs. 100 per day of delay (maximum INR 5000/-).

For annual return, late filing fees shall be Rs. 100 per day of delay (maximum 0.25% of aggregate turnover).

Late filing would be permitted on payment of late fees only. Hence late filing of return will not be possible without payment of fees.

In the GST Regime there are three return filing options electronically (manual filing of returns not allowed) as shown below:

1.  Monthly

2.  Quarterly (for compounding options)

3.  Annual.
