Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies that it is still possible to file the GSTR-9C for the financial year 2018-19, provided you were registered by or before that year. Late fees for filing the annual return are applicable at a rate of £200 per day or 0.25% of turnover, whichever is less.

Yes...you can file
Is there any late fee applicable on that FY??
You file Annual return for 2018-19 if you have registered in 2018-19 or earlier.

You may file GSTR-9C if there are no defaults in recent months.

Late fees is 200/- per or 0.25% of turnover whichever is earlier.

GSTR-9C for FY 2018-19 now:

• GSTR-9C (reconciliation statement) for FY 2018-19 was required for turnover above Rs 2 crore (CA-certified then). The due date passed long ago (extended to 31 March 2021).

• The portal may still allow filing (with late fees under Sec 47 for GSTR-9; there's no specific late fee for 9C separately). The 3-year bar on filing returns (from October 2023 law, implemented 2025) may prevent filing returns more than 3 years past their due date. Check the portal.

• If a notice was issued for non-filing, respond with filing if possible. Penalty for non-filing may apply (Sec 125, up to Rs 25,000).
