Once a business is registered under GST, it is mandatory to file GST returns regularly. GST return filing is the process of furnishing the details of sales, purchases, and the tax collected on sales (output tax) and paid on purchases (input tax). WeIncept ensures accurate and timely GST return filing, helping your business avoid penalties and maintain compliance with the GST regulations.
What Is GST Return Filing?
GST return filing is the submission of details regarding income, expenditure, and tax paid by a business. Based on these returns, the tax authority calculates the tax liability of the taxpayer. It is mandatory for every registered taxpayer to file GST returns, irrespective of their business activity, turnover, or profitability during the return period.
