LATE FEE FOR GSTR-9 FILING - FY 2022-23

Save Share

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

A business owner is concerned about a substantial GSTR-9 late fee for FY 2022-23, amounting to approximately £17 lakhs due to their turnover exceeding £5 crores. They were hoping for a waiver following the 55th GST Council meeting's recommendations. However, it appears the recent notification only waives late fees for GSTR-9C, not GSTR-9, leaving the daily late fee of £200 per day applicable.

22 January 2025 Dear Expert,

We have not filed the GSTR-9 returns for the FY 2022–23. We have now finalized the data for uploading the returns; however, it is showing a significant late fee of ₹200 per day. Our turnover exceeds ₹5 crores. I have reviewed updates from the 55th GST Council meeting, which recommended issuing a circular regarding late fees.

Given this situation, can I expect any late fee waiver? As we operate 20 branches across multiple states, the total late fee is calculated at approximately ₹17 lakhs, which is a substantial amount.

Kindly suggest us
