14 September 2013 Generally,it is 20th(in Delhi 28th) of every month for the previous month.Whether vat is payable or not last date for filing of returns will not change.If no vat is payable or refund has to be claimed then nominal penalty may have to be paid. If vat is payable along with the return,then penalty of atleast 10% of the amount due and interest @ 1.25% on it becomes due.It varies in different states.....mjk

15 September 2013 Under Mah. VAT Act due date for payment of tax is 21 st of the next month, and for uploading e-return additional 10 days grace period is allowed. If return is not submitted in due time, non appeal-able late fee payable is Rs. 5000/- though tax payable is nil or refund is due.
