Interest on GST liability

This query is : Resolved 

25 August 2021 We are in a situation that we have paid the GST liability on time but not filed the GST returns. Do I need to pay interest for non filing of returns? or is it ok to pay late fees?

25 August 2021 I think only late fee applicable in this case.

25 August 2021 Thank you for the reply, but GST personnel demanding to pay interest because the amount deposited in cash ledger belongs to the company not credited to Government exchequer untiled filled the GST returns. Please provide any supporting case laws if available.

25 August 2021 As per the GST Act, yes, interest is to be paid in case the return is not filed even the payment is made in e-cash ledger. However you can contend it through writ only. Refer to the case law of Messrs Vishnu Aroma Pouching Pvt. Ltd. Vs Union of India (Gujarat High Court) - Appeal Number : R/Special Civil Appeal No. 5629 of 2019

25 August 2021 Yes, interest and Late fees both will get applicable.

29 August 2021 You will have to pay interest.
