In **Uttarakhand**, under the **Uttarakhand VAT Act (now subsumed under GST)**, the due dates for VAT returns varied depending on your **dealer category and turnover**.
### โ For VAT Period Before GST (i.e., up to June 2017):
**General VAT Return Filing Timelines in Uttarakhand:**
| Dealer Type | Return Frequency | Due Date | | ----------------------------- | ---------------- | ----------------------------------- | | Regular Dealer (Monthly) | Monthly | 20th of next month | | Composition/Small Dealers | Quarterly | 20th of next quarter month | | Annual Return (if applicable) | Yearly | By 31st October following end of FY |

### ๐ Example:
* **March 2017 return** โ Due by **20th April 2017** * **Q1 AprilโJune 2017** โ Due by **20th July 2017**

### ๐ Notes:
* Returns were filed using **Form VAT-17** or **Form VAT-XXIV**, depending on the type of dealer. * Dealers had to log in to the **Commercial Tax Department, Uttarakhand** portal for e-filing.

If you're referring to a **historical VAT return filing** (pre-GST) or need help **filing backdated returns**, I can guide you based on the period and your dealer type. Just share the **financial year/quarter** in question.
