WE HAVE DEPOSITED RS.177600/ TOWARDS PENALTY U/S129(30) WHILE DOCUMENT ARE PRESENT BEFORE AUTHORITY.
HOW IT WILL REFUND
Multiple gst number was generated on single account! I m ni am not sure the mistake is from gov side or from agent ?. But i have raised the invoices to my clients on invalid gst Number and my agent says it was gov side mistake due to server down multiple number was generated to single account which we had noticed. And i have registered Complaint on complaint/ greviance they say agent mistake saying he might have applied twice. 1st number was recived on July and the other one was on August. And agent informed me saying not to consider the second one and to maintain the first one which was recived on july month. But When i had been to purchase goods they said me gst is invalid. So finally again my agent sent me a mail on feb month another gst number which i had already received on August month and made me fool. Now what i hav to do i have not paid gst returns from july! And i am suppose to pay the late payment fees?
respected sir,
We have registered under GST in march-17 only, since authorised signatory DSC hold has left organisation- DSC also invalid once he left organisation, from aug-17 more than 15 compliant raised with GST helpdesk, still we have not received solution, and we have not filed single returns under GST, in my case also late fee will be applicable…?????

It is fate of our Indian people that laws are imposed on us by forcefully and people are getting suppressed and they don’t wants to accept this hence result is hiding the facts due to these ridiculous laws even in foreign county have relaxed the laws and tax slab is very minimum not like India our leader are copying only system not complete tax policy of foreign counties.

Every day in GST Side technical problem show. Every indian people is very trouble in GST system. Now Please I requested to GSTN Please delete late fees .
Sir i have to delete few invoices fed online on GST portal for GSTR-1 as the GST no. issued to one of my customers was deactivated and a new gst number was issued to him. I mailed on gst helpdesk on 14th of october and am regularly calling them for the resolution, due to which i could not file my GSTR 1. What should i do, and what about the late fees.
Late fee should be waived off for GSTR1. one side software issue is continued till last hour and another side your asking for late fee after due date.
Professional life where it will end……………..
As per the articles of Constitution of India, it is not possible to penalise a person twice for one mistake. The late filing fee as per GSTR3B is charging. While preparing the law there was not a return form of GSTR 3B. It is published and brought into action later. Since the late fee is charging on GSTR3B, it is arbitrary on charging the late fee on GSTR 1. This has already brought to the notice of the authorities at the time of starting the late fee on GSTR 3B.
Sir
I am not able to filling the gstr1 for the sept Qtr
Error is coming Authorised signatory not found aor not registered please advise
What about non filing Trans. 1 please give me
Advice
I am not Agree with this article. There will be no Late fees Imposed on Late Filing of GSTR – 1.
Late fee in respect of GSTR-1 should be waived as for huge number transactions, creation of json file from Excel file through Off-Line Tools is much cumbersome, till today there is lot of Return filing pending.
Sir, On 10th Jan. 2018, I have completed and submitted GSTR1 before 10.00 P.M. After that server didn’t allow to file GSTR1. Finally, I was allowed only on 12th Jan. 2018. I tried so many times till 12.00 midnight on 10.01.2018, which went on vein. Whether this would happen coming months also?
But the GSTR-3B return doesn’t allow to punch late fees. The late fee is auto-populated. So in that case even if we pay late fees w.r.t. late filing of GSTR-1, the same will not be reflected in the GSTR-3B of the subsequent month
Late fee should be waived off for GSTR1 this is Software Issue…… even they are know site was not working properly…..
Kya System hain Log pahle hi pareshan hain aur ab ye…..
i have filed gstr 3b for july and other months in time. however gstr-1 for the month of nov 2017 (due date 10/01/2018) was late by two days. while filing gstr 3b for dec 2017 even if there is no liability shown in interest and late fee table in gstr 3b the liability is not offset and thereby we are not able to file gstr 3b. there is no amount showing as late fee in gstr 3b. the message is there is late fee for current and previous month. pls advise
Sir i heard from the GSTN that the due dates are calculated based on the frequency of returns i.e, Monthly or Quarterly.
So the emphasis is on Frequency rather than the Turnover.
If you have opted for Monthly returns (though your turnover is below 1.5Cr) – Due dates are Jul to Nov – 10th Jan
If opted for Quarterly – Due dates are Jul-Sep – 10th Jan
Dear Sir, From 8th Jan 2018 to 12th Jan 2018 there is technical problem (login of GST portal ). Hence, same is intimated to GST helpdesk thorough email
from 8 Jan 2018 the site was busy no return filed and more over if submitted due to problem in data base of GST system the verification of PAN could not be done we mailed problem to help desk and otp was not verfied
very nice one and informative article.
From 13th Jan 18 onwards there is some trouble in GSTR1 Filing. So, the late fee will be calculated including troubled days?
Who is responsible for software issues?
GST Council? Govt? Sales Tax Authorities? Central GST Authorities?
