Quick Summary
This discussion addresses concerns about penalties appearing when filing GSTR3B after a GSTN was revoked and subsequently reinstated under an amnesty scheme. While the amnesty scheme revokes the cancellation, late fees for periods prior to revocation may still apply, with amounts varying based on turnover and the specific GSTR3B filing period. Returns filed within 30 days of the revocation order are generally free from late fees for that specific period.

Late fee prior to July 2021  for NIL GSTR 3B is still ₹ 10,000/-.

And from July, 2021 to till date Late of GSTR 3B is as under- 

1. If the preceding fiscal year's annual turnover is up to Rs.1.5 crore, a late fee of up to Rs 2,000 per return might be levied (i.e. Rs.1000 each for CGST and SGST).

2. If the turnover is between Rs.1.5 crore and Rs.5 crores, a maximum late fee of Rs. 5,000 per return can be levied (i.e. Rs. 2500 each for CGST and SGST).

3. If the turnover exceeds Rs.5 crores, a late fee of up to Rs.10,000 (i.e. Rs.5000 per CGST and SGST) can be levied.

Late fees for the cancellation period after revocation:
• After revocation, returns for the cancellation-to-revocation period are due within 30 days of the revocation order (Rule 23), so filing within that window avoids late fees for that period. Late fees for pre-cancellation returns filed late still apply.
• Earlier amnesty schemes (Notf 03/2023 for revocation, until June 2023) waived some fees. Those have closed.
• Penalty (Sec 125) or interest (Sec 50) on unpaid tax for the period still applies.
