Quick Summary

If you haven't filed your GST returns for over 10 months, even with taxable returns, you will likely have to pay applicable late fees, interest, and penalties. Unfortunately, there is currently no option to avoid these charges. A GST amnesty scheme was previously available, offering relief for backlog returns, but this ended on 30th September 2020.

No Sir you gave to pay the applicable Late Fees, Interest and Penalties now. There is no option to avoid it. However a GST Amnesty Scheme was given to the default taxpayers to clear all their backlog returns starting from FY 2017-18 without late fees and reduced the interest rate which ended on 30th September 2020. So now there is no option...
