### Late Fee Waiver for GSTR-1 (March 2021):

1. **Context**: The waiver of late fees was provided as a relief measure to businesses impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly for the month of March 2021.

2. **Notification**: The Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) issued notifications specifying the waiver of late fees for delayed filing of GSTR-1 for the relevant period.

3. **Conditions**: Typically, such waivers are subject to certain conditions, such as filing the return within a specified extended deadline or within a prescribed period after the normal due date.

4. **Verification**: To confirm the exact details and current status of late fee waivers for GSTR-1 for March 2021, you should check the latest notifications or updates issued by the GST authorities or consult with a GST practitioner.

5. **Filing Compliance**: Even with a late fee waiver, it's important to ensure timely filing of GST returns to avoid accumulation of penalties in subsequent periods and to maintain compliance with GST regulations.

For the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding late fee waivers and compliance requirements for GSTR-1 filings, it's advisable to refer to the official notifications issued by the GST authorities or consult with a tax professional familiar with GST regulations in India.
