Introduction: As the year draws to a close, it’s imperative for businesses to ensure their GST compliance is top-notch. This checklist serves as a guide to navigate through the intricacies of GST reconciliation, verification, settlement of liabilities, and proactive measures to stay ahead of the game. Here’s a checklist to help you stay on track:

  • Reconcile Like a Boss: Take a deep dive into your sales turnover, credit notes, and output tax. Make sure they’re all aligned with your filed GST returns (GSTR-1 & GSTR-3B) from the previous year.
  • Verify, Verify, Verify: Double-check your Input Tax Credit (ITC) claimed in returns against your Books of Accounts and GSTR-2B. And hey, don’t forget to shoot a quick message to your suppliers to confirm their GST filings. Let’s avoid any ITC disallowance drama, shall we?
  • Reverse & Settle: Review and reverse any ineligible or blocked ITC claimed in GST returns. Got pending reverse charge liabilities? Settle them up with the appropriate interest, and let’s keep things squeaky clean.
  • LUT Renewal Party: Calling all exporters! It’s time to renew your Letter of Undertaking (LUT) if you’re planning to export goods or services without IGST payment next financial year. Let’s keep those export vibes going strong!

GST Year-End Checklist

  • Claim Those ITCs: If you’ve missed claiming any ITC in your GST returns while reconciling GSTR-2B, claim those invoices now. Don’t let those credits slip away!
  • Double-Check Reverse Charge: Have you accounted for all those reverse charge liabilities in your books? Pay ’em up, claim ’em in your GSTR-3B, and let’s keep the RCM train moving smoothly.
  • Stay on Top of Payments: Review vendor payments within 180 days of the invoice date. Missing the deadline? You might need to reverse some ITC. Let’s keep those cash flows flowing!
  • No Missed Liabilities: Check for any sneaky output tax liabilities or missed credit notes in your GSTR-1 & GSTR-3B. (Tip: Review GST on Other Income or sale of assets). We’re on a mission to leave no stone unturned!
  • Stay Timely, Reclaim Freely: Missed payments to suppliers within 180 days? No worries, just pay up along with the interest & reclaim after making the payment.
  • Stay Proactive, Stay Confident: By staying proactive and diligent in GST-related matters, businesses can navigate the complexities of taxation seamlessly and focus on their core operations with confidence. Let’s do this!

Conclusion: By adhering to the steps outlined in this checklist, businesses can streamline their GST processes, mitigate risks of non-compliance, and maintain a robust financial framework.
