What is cbic gstr 9 ?

The Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) extended the due date for filing GST Annual Return and Reconciliation Statement (GSTR-9 / 9A and GSTR-9C) for FY 2017-18 in a staggered manner. The previous last date to file the Returns was January 31, 2020.

This came after thousands of taxpayers complained about the GST portal not working with the help of social media. “Considering the difficulties being faced by taxpayers in filing GSTR-9 and GSTR-9C for FY 2017-18 it has been decided to extend the due dates in a staggered manner for different groups of States to 3rd, 5th and 7th February 2020 as under,” CBIC said in a Tweet.

The states of Maharashtra, Karnataka, Goa, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Puducherry, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Other Territory has been placed in Group 1 and they will need to furnish their returns by 3rd February 2020.

Group 2 which includes Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Chandigarh, Uttarakhand, Haryana, Delhi, Rajasthan and Gujarat that have to file by 5th February 2020.

In states from group 3, the states of Bihar, Sikkim, Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, Tripura, Meghalaya, Assam, West Bengal, Andaman & Nicobar Islands, Jharkhand, Odisha, Chhattisgarh, Dadra and Nagar Haveli, and Daman and Diu, Lakshadweep, Madhya Pradesh, and Uttar Pradesh, have to file by 7th February 2020.

We can’t deny the fact that both the GST system is complex, taxpayers found it impossible to file their returns. On January 31, #gstnfailed was the top trend on Twitter. CBIC tweeted the extension dates, but on 01^st February 2020, the portal didn’t work.

The due date for the states in Group 1 ends on February 3, but it is unclear if any notifications’ regarding the extension of the date have been generated. Moreover, the GSTN portal was not working on the whole day of February 1, with the site showing it was under schedule downtime. Taxpayers are now hoping for a further extension.

Under GST, the annual return is to be filled in GSTR-9. Furthermore, according to Section 35 of the CGST Act, 2017, each Assesses whose turnover surpasses Rs 2 crore during a year, is required to submit Audited accounts and a Reconciliation in GSTR-9C. The late Fee for not Filling the GSTR 9 within the due date is Rs 200 per day.
