Nil return but late fee charged

If the firm has stopped business, apply for cancellation in REG-16 after filing pending returns, then file the final return GSTR-10 within 3 months of the cancellation order; meanwhile nil returns can be filed by SMS, and late fee for nil returns is now Rs 20 per day capped at Rs 500 per return.

Can we claim itc on gold while gifting to our customer

ITC is blocked under Sec 17(5)(h) for goods given as gifts, so the 3% GST becomes part of the cost; but for income tax, gifts to customers for business promotion are generally allowable as business expenditure, so the GST bar does not make the expense disallowable.

Export of goods in first time

With IGST-paid exports the shipping bill itself is the refund claim: ICEGATE processes it once GSTR-1 Table 6A and GSTR-3B are filed and match the shipping bill, crediting the bank account registered with customs; alternatively export under LUT (RFD-11, filed each year) without tax and claim refund of accumulated ITC.

Details to provide in gst return by gta

Once registered, a GTA must file GSTR-3B every month (nil if needed) and report RCM supplies invoice-wise in GSTR-1 Table 4B marked reverse charge; a GTA supplying only under RCM need not register (Notfn 5/2017-CT), and since 2022 a GTA wanting to charge tax itself must file the Annexure V option by 31 March for the next year.

chance of service in composition

This was later done: service providers with turnover up to Rs 50 lakh can opt for a 6% composition (3% CGST + 3% SGST, no ITC) under Sec 10(2A) and Notfn 2/2019-CT(R), and goods composition dealers may also supply services up to 10% of turnover or Rs 5 lakh, whichever is higher.

Rcm details in gstr1

Correct that inward RCM is not reported in GSTR-1; it goes in GSTR-3B Table 3.1(d), paid in cash, with the same amount claimed as ITC in Table 4(A)(3); and freight is under RCM only if the GTA has not opted to pay tax itself under forward charge.

Regarding amendment in gst amendment

As the PAN changes, the proprietor must obtain a fresh registration on his own PAN and the firm's GSTIN be cancelled in REG-16 citing change in constitution, with unutilised ITC transferred to the new GSTIN through ITC-02 (Sec 18(3), Rule 41); this cannot be done by amending the existing registration.

Tax rate

A dealer in second-hand goods who has not availed ITC on them (e.g. bought from individuals) may pay GST only on the margin, sale price less purchase price, nil if negative (Rule 32(5)), at the goods' normal rate; on the follow-up, composition manufacturers pay 1% (0.5% CGST + 0.5% SGST) of turnover since 1 Jan 2018.

Gst on service

If the erection results in or relates to immovable property (e.g. plant fixed on foundations, structural work), place of supply is the site under Sec 12(3)(a) IGST, so Maharashtra CGST+SGST is right and the AP firm cannot use that credit without a Maharashtra registration; IGST under Sec 12(2)(a) fits only erection of movable equipment.

Gstr 4

A person dealing only in exempt goods is not liable to register at all (Sec 23(1)(a)) and can apply for cancellation; if registration is kept, a nil CMP-08 (fileable by SMS) is due each quarter and the annual GSTR-4 by 30 April, with exempt sales reported there.

ITC in case of works contract

ITC on chemicals and epoxy used in flooring done for customers is fully available: Sec 17(5)(c)/(d) blocks credit only for works contracts or construction on one's own account, and here the works contract service (18%) is the taxable output; reversal is needed only for material used on the firm's own premises.

Civil Contrator

On the follow-up: the excess Rs 2,000 simply stays in the electronic credit ledger and is set off against later months' output tax; it is refundable only for zero-rated supplies or where it accumulates because input rates exceed the output rate (Sec 54(3)); note cement is now 18% from 22 Sep 2025.

Itc on discount

Since Oct 2024 a supplier can reduce output tax on a GST credit note only if you reverse the matching ITC (Sec 34(2) proviso), done by accepting it in IMS, so here Rs 196 comes off your ITC; a target or scheme discount not agreed before supply and linked to invoices should instead be a financial credit note without GST, needing no reversal.

Vehicle insurance input credit

Since 1 Feb 2019 Sec 17(5)(ab) expressly blocks GST on insurance, repair and servicing of cars (up to 13 seats) whose own ITC is blocked, unless used for further supply of vehicles, passenger transport or driver training, or received by a vehicle maker or insurer; for goods carriages the insurance ITC is fully available.

Reimbursement of expenses

Out-of-pocket expenses recovered from the bank (travel, stay, conveyance) are part of the value under Sec 15(2)(c) and taxed at 18% with the audit fee; only amounts incurred as a pure agent under Rule 33 (paid on the bank's behalf, in its name, and shown separately at actual cost) are excluded.
