your business turnover?
Late fee for Nil Return - Rs. 20/day (CGST Rs 10 & SGST Rs 10)
Other than Nil return - Rs. 50/day (CGST Rs 25 & SGST Rs 25).
Maximum late fee Rs 10000 /month.

Also pay 18% per Annum interest for late payment for all outstanding payments. 

Late fee is auto calculated by gst portal while submitting returns.

GSTR3B should be filed on monthly basis.

You cant cancel gst registration without filing returns up-to-date.
i alrdy read in all website.. late fee 50 Rs per day for normal return 20 Rs per day for nil return but what is confuse is.. when there are many 6 months pending.. i file febrauray as nil return but in system is auto selecting option NO for Do you want to file nil return means does LATE FEE LIABILITY cancel Nil return so what will be the auto system calculated late fee foe next month april.. is it 20 Rs per day or 50 Rs per day (i have not made any sales.. not enetered anyting in outward supplies form is 0 )
Actually assessee is require to pay last month late fee in subsequent momths return... If you will file feb. 2018 return with sales then you can file your first return without any late fee.. In case of return of march you have to pay late fee for feb
If you file nil return in feb then in march you have to pay 20 rs per day if you file return with sales or purchase you have to pay @ 50 per day

Late filing fees are humongous...i went thru the saga in the last couple of days...paid about 35000 rupees as late fee charges...where as I know of a foreign portal in operating in India collecting GST from listed partners without having a GST registration themselves (the portal)..such is the tale...
