Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies that filing the GST annual return (GSTR-9A) is not mandatory for composition taxpayers for FY 2017-18 and FY 2018-19, as it was made optional by a circular in November 2019. For FY 2019-20, no relaxations have been announced yet, and taxpayers are still awaiting official notification regarding GSTR-9 and GSTR-9A.

No Sir it is not mandatory. For FY 2017-18 and FY 2018-19, filing of FORM GSTR-9A was made OPTIONAL. The same was clarified vide Circular No. 124/43/2019 - GST, dated 18th November 2019.
Thank you so much sir....and what about fy 19/20 sir???

No relaxations provided yet for FY 19-20. But can be expected, awaiting notification. 

Ok sir, thanks again
As of now, No Relaxation have been provided from the Government regarding FORM GSTR-9A as well as FORM GSTR-9 for the FY 2019-20.

The trade and industry is still stuck in filing FORM GSTR-9 / GSTR-9A for the previous two FY ( 17-18 & 18-19 ).
Yes sir, these annual returns are like jalebi....round and round and round....
