Quick Summary

Filing your GSTR 9C late incurs a penalty of ₹200 per day, split between CGST and SGST. While GSTR-9C itself doesn't have a specific prescribed late fee, failing to file it can lead to a general penalty under the CGST Act, potentially reaching up to ₹50,000. This penalty is in addition to any late fees applied to the annual return, GSTR-9, which is also ₹200 per day, capped at 0.50% of turnover.

31 December 2024 While there's no specific late fee prescribed for GSTR-9C.
General Penalty: Non-filing of GSTR-9C can attract a general penalty under the CGST Act, which may extend up to ₹50,000 (CGST + SGST).
GSTR-9C is a reconciliation statement based on the annual return (GSTR-9).1 If GSTR-9 is filed late, it incurs a late fee of ₹200 per day (₹100 under CGST and ₹100 under SGST/UTGST), capped at 0.50% of the turnover in the State/UT. Some argue this could also apply to GSTR-9C.
