16 November 2011 Hi !



i want to know that what is limit of turnover to :

- Quarterly filing of Sales Tax Return

- Half yearly filing of Sales Tax Return

- Annual filing of Sales Tax Return

in delhi state

16 November 2011 Varies from state to state !!!

23 July 2025 In Delhi, the frequency of filing Sales Tax (VAT) returns is determined by the annual turnover of the dealer. The categorization is as follows:

---

### 📊 VAT Return Filing Frequency Based on Turnover

| **Turnover Range** | **Return Filing Frequency** | |
| -------------------- | --------------------------- | ------------------ |
| Up to ₹10 lakh | **Annual** | |
| ₹10 lakh to ₹50 lakh | **Half-Yearly** | |
| ₹50 lakh to ₹5 crore | **Quarterly** | |
| Above ₹5 crore | **Monthly** | ([CAclubindia][1]) |

This classification is based on Rule 26 of the Delhi Value Added Tax (DVAT) Rules, 2005, which stipulates the tax period for dealers based on their turnover in the preceding year. ([TaxTMI][2])

### 📝 Important Notes

* **Annual Returns**: Dealers with a turnover up to ₹10 lakh are required to file annual returns.

* **Half-Yearly Returns**: Dealers with a turnover between ₹10 lakh and ₹50 lakh must file returns every six months.

* **Quarterly Returns**: Dealers with a turnover between ₹50 lakh and ₹5 crore are mandated to file returns on a quarterly basis.([CAclubindia][1])

* **Monthly Returns**: Dealers with a turnover exceeding ₹5 crore are required to file returns monthly.([ClearTax][3])

* **Change in Filing Frequency**: If a dealer's turnover changes, they may need to adjust their return filing frequency accordingly. For instance, if a dealer's turnover exceeds ₹50 lakh during the year, they must switch from half-yearly to quarterly filing. Such changes should be communicated to the authorities as per the prescribed procedures.
