GST return filing

01 August 2017

I have obtained GSTIN two weeks ago. I have not made any purchase since then. Do I need to still file return? As my local CA told that I need to file return every month even if I dont make any purchases.

As per sec 39(8), every regd person who is reqd to furnish a return shall furnish it for every tax period whether or not any supplies have been made.

Thank you for your reply Ma'am. But as I can see on my GST portal Dashboard, All the liability column is ₹0.

It will show something if you upload the details of inward and outward supplies...

Dear Saloni,

I have a question about Input Tax Credit on GST

I have purchase some stationary item in Cash /Cheque but the seller didnot mention our GSTN in the Invoice . it is possible for input tax credit

Ask vendor to update it before he files his return.

Otherwise you won;t be able to claim ITC...(if he is regd)

If he is not regd, pay under RCM
