Rs.50 per day will be charged as late fees for every return which is due but not filed.

if it is nil nil return, Rs. 20 per day will be charged.
Pls note that there was an exemption for jul & aug return for some time. check that exemption and adjust ur late fees accordingly
Thanks,

Dear Mr Vinod Babu.,

(Note:In current situation GSTR 1 return's late fee not imposed... )

The Late Fee is also applicable for GSTR 1. We will calculate manually and Payable....

Just it's not calculated automatically in GSTR 3B. But, don't be leave it without pay if Late filed GSTR 1...

My question is that " Late fee calculated manually for GSTR 1and remitted the same in cash ledger".
While submitting 3B returns for may18, will the late fee remitted for gstr1 is offsetted in 3b. I don't think so. Will... After filing 3B, the late fee remitted for gstr1 will remain in cash ledger or not.

Please tell me.

Late fee who ever paid till sep 2017 (before deferrring the late fee till sep17), the late was credited to tax payer's cash ledger.

The late fee paid for rest of the month may be in future date credited to cash ledger or not by the department. No sure about it. Any way wait and see for it.
