Quick Summary
Late fees are indeed applicable for the late filing of GSTR1 for the financial year 2019-2020, as per Section 47 of the CGST Act 2017. While the GST portal does not automatically calculate or collect these fees, taxpayers are legally liable to pay them. The fee is set at Rs. 200 per day (Rs. 100 for CGST and Rs. 100 for SGST) and can be collected by the jurisdictional officer.
No the GST portal do not collect late fees on gstr-1 automatically. But it is provided under law and the jurisdictional officer is entitled to collect through issuing intimation.
As per Law ( Section 47 of the CGST Act 2017 ), Late Fees for delayed filing of FORM GSTR-1 is levied. But the GST Common Portal does not compute it automatically.
Late fees get automatically levied as soon as returns are filed belatedly provided they are not waived. It's just that it is not being collected yet. Although voluntary payment can be made.
