Late fees refund for gstr1 already filed with delay

Vide Notification Nos. 43 and 44/2018 – Central Tax dated 10th September, 2018, the last dates for filing GSTR1, for the period July 2017 - Sep 2018, was extended to 31st Oct 2018.

https://www.cbic.gov.in/resources//htdocs-cbec/press-release/CBEC%20Press%20Release%20dt%2010.09.2018.pdf;jsessionid=2AAB277FD4D949B681B21C67CB6FCA13

The press release above also mentions a one time Late fee waiver.

Does that mean that all Late fees paid earlier by Registered Persons for any late filed GSTR1 will be refunded back to Electronic Cash Ledger?

Thank you, I will get paid some amount 😃
It will be good news for all taxpayer who have paid late fee.

CBEC Mitra Helpdesk says no clarity on refund of Late Fees already paid.

We need to demand parity from CBEC.

@ Mr. S Kumar.,

Are You paid late fee for GSTR 1...?

@ Mr Raja,

Sir, we have paid Late fees for GSTR1 of July 18.

It will be refunded in some time
@ S Kumar.,

Please I'm not understand the details...!

Are You paid Late Fee for GSTR 1 or In GSTR 1 or in GSTR 3B...?



Bcoz,
I'm not paid a single penny in GSTR 1 till date...
I also not paid any late fee for GSTR1 till now.
The late fee for GSTR1 was not being collected by Govt till date , then how it is possible that you have depisited the same. yes might be you have deposited on voluntry basis.

@ Mr Raja, Mr Babu and Mr Rawat

I re-checked July18 returns and Late fees was auto calculated only for GSTR 3B and not GSTR1.

So I stand corrected. Thank you for your invaluable input.
