Due date of tax for composition dealer

Due date for payment is 15.11.2017

In GST even if you pay the GST to the govt. without filing of return, then it won't be considered as you paid the liability. 

It's not like earlier service tax where if you pay service tax and don't file the return then you are not liable for interest.

The conclusion is due date for payment and filing of return for compostion dealer is 15.11.2017. We can arrive at this coslusion because unless we offset the laibility it is not treated as liability paid to the government

Yes i agree with Mr. Vinod Araveti

As some have taken view that only return filing date has been extended till 15th Nov as notification has reflected just Sec 39(2), so the payment date will still be earlier i.e 18th oct. Sec 39(7) of the CGST Act specifies that a person furnishing return u/s 39(2) is required to pay tax to the government not later than last date on which he is required to furnish such return.

So, until and unless a notification comes specifying payment date to be 18th oct, lawfully it will be last date of filing of return u/s 39(2) which has been specified for this quarter to be 15th Nov.

@ Raja P M

Kindly go through the last para of reply given by Mr. Sivam Chomal... he is specifying that due date for payment is last date of filing of return.  As the last date for filing return is 15.11.2017, the due date for payment is also same.
