5. Form MSME-1 is also NOT REQUIRED to be filed where there is NIL reporting/outstanding amounts to any MSME.

6. Permanent Account Number (PAN) of the Company is Mandatory to be mentioned.

7. Form MSME-1 is required to be filed only when the amount is outstanding beyond 45 days from the date of acceptance of supplies.

8. The form will be processed in STP mode.

9. While Filing Returns:

a) Period option is available for Half Yearly Return.

b) E form MSME-1 allowed only 99 Entries in the for Particulars of the name of suppliers and amount of payments due, if more than 99 entries are there then new form is required to be filed (You have to file multiple forms).

 c) Number of Entries shall be considered as number of Invoices

It is advisable that if Company received 5 invoices on one particular date then all five invoices should be reported separately.

10. We have to ask suppliers whether they fall under the category or small / Micro as per MSMED Act, 2006, if they not fall or no answer is received then no need to file MSME -1 form as Company is not aware about the nature of Supplier. Communication is must. Company has to ask them first. (Webinar MSME-1)

11. MCA has not clarified about the period for 1st half-yearly Return which has to be filed before 30th April 2019 for the half year ended 31st March 2019 as one time return shall be filed with the data as on 22.01.2019. It is advisable to prepare the data as per details available on 31st March 2019.

12. Company has to identify Micro and Small separately. MSME‐1 is to be filed only when amount is due to MSME Enterprise and company should take steps to find out whether supplier is MSME or not.

13. If agreement is made to make payment within 60 days between the parties but as on date of filing return the amount is outstanding for more than 45 days but less than 50 days. Whether reporting is required or not?

In this case, Reporting has to be made as per the rules made thereby and shall be given if the amount is outstanding for more than 45 days.

    Dear Friends
    Thanks for your continuous support.
    I have one query regarding half yearly return of MSME.
    In this return we have to submit the data of outstanding payment as on Half year end or during the period where we had made delay payment either by one day.
    Thanks
    Jitendra
