Dear Andy,
Actually, as per Govt Notification no. 35/2017 – Central Tax, dated 15th September, GSTR 3B has to be filed mandatorily by everyone by the 20th of the following month for July 17 to Dec 17. Which means GST payment has to be made anyway for at least upto Dec17. That GST payment has to be made every month for the period July 17 to Dec 17 is clearly mentioned in the notification
Since this is for everyone, this implies that small traders too are required as of now, till further notification, at least upto returns Dec 17, to pay GST monthly.
So as of now, the return filing is once every 3 months, starting Oct1st cycle.
Regards,
Geetha
