For Works Contract Tax (WCT) and VAT filing, generally:
Yes, filing VAT-27 monthly returns is mandatory even if no tax was deducted during the month.
The return is to report the transactions and to maintain compliance with tax authorities.
Some states may allow a "Nil return" filing if no transactions or no tax deducted, but it depends on the specific state’s VAT/WCT rules.
Recommendation:
Check the exact rules for your state (since VAT/WCT rules vary by state in India). Most states require monthly filing of Form VAT-27 (WCT return) even if tax was not deducted, but filing a "Nil return" is allowed
