Quick Summary
Even if your business has no transactions, filing a 'Nil Return' under the GST regime is mandatory each month. Failure to do so incurs a daily late fee of Rs. 20 per day (Rs. 10 CGST + Rs. 10 SGST) under Section 47(1) of the CGST Act. Unfortunately, there's no way to avoid these penalties once they've been levied. It's also crucial to check your GSTIN status, as non-filing for six consecutive months can lead to registration cancellation.

Filing Return / Statements under GST Regime is "Mandatory". Even if there is No-Business Transaction in a particular month, You have to file "NIL RETURN" for that particular month.

Even if NIL RETURN is not filed within time, Late Fees u/s 47(1) of the CGST Act 2017 @ Rs. 20 per day ( Rs. 10 under CGST + Rs. 10 under SGST ) will be levied.

Therefore you have to file all the Returns / Statements along with Late Fees. There's No solution to avoid the incidence of Late Fees. A harsh reality.

Also check your GSTIN status once. Check whether it is Active or Cancelled by the Proper Officer or not. Since you have not filed your Returns for a continuous period of Six Months, the Proper Officer can cancel your REGISTRATION by virtue of Sub-Section (2) clause (c) of Section 29 of the CGST Act 2017.

Shivam RC.
Thanks
You're Welcome Sir...
