Staying on top of GST return deadlines avoids late fees and keeps your input tax credit flowing smoothly. Here’s the standard monthly and quarterly filing calendar.
GSTR-1 (Outward Supplies)
- Monthly filers: 11th of the following month.
- QRMP (quarterly) filers: 13th of the month following the quarter.
GSTR-3B (Summary Return & Tax Payment)
- Monthly filers: 20th of the following month.
- QRMP filers: 22nd or 24th of the month following the quarter, depending on your state category.
Late fees to watch out for
Missing a GSTR-3B deadline attracts a late fee of ₹50 per day of delay (₹20 per day for nil returns), plus applicable interest on any unpaid tax.
A word of caution
The GST Council occasionally extends due dates through official notifications — the date shown on the GST portal for your specific return should always be treated as final. We track these changes as part of our GST compliance service, so you never miss a filing.
