Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether composite dealers with a turnover below 2 crores must file the GSTR 9A annual return, especially after filing GSTR 4. According to Circular No. 124/43/2019, filing GSTR 9A for FY 2017-18 and FY 2018-19 is optional for composition scheme dealers. While penalties for not providing purchase details in GSTR 4 are possible, they typically only apply if the case is selected for scrutiny.

As per Notification 47/2019 CT R/w Circular 124 /43/2019 It's Not mandatory to file 9A.

Yes the penalty can be impose on account of Non Compliance, But Its going to be only if your case being call for scrutiny.
Agree with Pankaj Sir. As per Circular No. 124/43/2019 - GST, dated 18th November 2019, it was clearly clarified that it would be "OPTIONAL" for filing FORM GSTR-9A by the Composition Scheme Dealer for the FY 2017-18 and FY 2018-19. Hence it's not mandatory to file Annual Return ( GSTR-9A ).
