My tax liability for a month is Rs. 5000/-. I have filed the return 30 days late and discharge my liability by cash and ITC Rs. 3000 & 2000 respectively. Now my question is Interest for 30days late will be calculated on Rs. 3000 which i have paid through cash or On total Rs. 5000.
Thanks

in my view interest will b charged on 3000/- only
moreover u can confirm it parctically by paying interest on 3000/-
if interest paid on 3000/- is not sufficient then u won't be able to file return

this is the problem... interest has to be calculated by user.. and there is no validation by system till date regarding interest. system will accept both...

Yes... I agreed to Mr Dharam.,
@ Sujan Das.,
No more Confusion...
Interest applicable only on "LIABILITY" not on Outward Taxes. Bcoz, We already paid some amount (2k) as ITC...
So, You can just calculate interest on Outstanding Liability...
As per Your query Rs 3k
= 3000*18%/365*30
= 44.38 only in the respective heads...

In case of delayed GST return filing, a taxpayer is liable to pay interest not only on the outstanding tax liability but also on the input tax credit (ITC) balance in the electronic credit ledger maintained on the GST Network portal, a Hyderabad GST commissionerate order said.

The GST officials ask the details based on Outward supplies which is filed by We in the GSTR 1 return. Also it's their duty...
But, Our duty is different from Officials. Bcoz they can't get Input details which is had our hand as Tax Invoices...
We only declare our set off details to Officials...
Also I done the same...
In any of the previous ID tax it's the same way. But, We can give our details to Officials...

ITC availment is not ITC utilization, when u utilize ITC then ur liability get decreased, & itc utilization is to be done in gstr 3b hence Interest is to be paid on 5000.
Hope the answer is ur question
