GST compliance is a monthly discipline that lives or dies on reconciliation. We run the return cycle, match your purchase register to GSTR-2B every month, and defend positions when the department asks questions.

What is included

  1. 1st

    Registration & structuring

    New registrations, additional places of business, composition versus regular scheme, QRMP eligibility and e-invoicing set-up.

  2. 2nd

    Monthly & quarterly returns

    GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, IFF and PMT-06 for QRMP filers, CMP-08 for composition dealers, with output and ITC working papers.

  3. 3rd

    Input-tax-credit reconciliation

    Automated matching of the purchase register with GSTR-2B, vendor follow-up on mismatches, and blocked-credit review under Section 17(5).

  4. 4th

    Annual return & reconciliation statement

    GSTR-9 and self-certified GSTR-9C with books-to-returns reconciliation and turnover tie-outs.

  5. 5th

    Notices, audits & refunds

    Replies to ASMT/DRC notices, departmental audit support, ITC-02 transfers on business reorganisation and refund applications.

How the work runs

  1. Reconcile

    Monthly 2B match before the return is filed, not after.

  2. File

    Returns on a fixed calendar with sign-off working papers.

  3. Defend

    Documented positions ready for any notice.

Who this is for

  • Manufacturers and traders with large vendor bases
  • Service exporters claiming refunds
  • Businesses under departmental audit

Related questions

When do I need to register for GST?

Registration is compulsory when aggregate turnover in a financial year exceeds ₹40 lakh for suppliers of goods in most states, including Karnataka, and ₹20 lakh for suppliers of services. Lower limits of ₹20 lakh and ₹10 lakh apply in special-category states. Registration is required regardless of turnover for inter-state supply of goods, e-commerce sellers on operator platforms, and persons liable under reverse charge.

How often are GST returns filed?

Regular taxpayers file GSTR-1 by the 11th and GSTR-3B by the 20th of every month. Businesses with turnover up to ₹5 crore may opt for the QRMP scheme: quarterly GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B (due on the 13th and 22nd of the month after the quarter in Karnataka) with monthly tax payment through PMT-06 by the 25th. Composition dealers file CMP-08 quarterly and GSTR-4 annually. All regular taxpayers with turnover above ₹2 crore file the annual return GSTR-9 by 31 December.

Why does my input tax credit not match my purchase register?

Input tax credit can be claimed only for invoices that appear in your GSTR-2B, which depends on your vendors filing GSTR-1 on time and with the correct GSTIN. Mismatches come from late vendor filings, wrong GSTINs, credit notes and ineligible items under the blocked-credit rules. A monthly reconciliation before filing GSTR-3B, with vendor follow-up, is the only reliable fix, and it is one of the processes we automate.

What are the late fees for missing a GST return?

For GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B the late fee is ₹50 per day (₹25 CGST plus ₹25 SGST), reduced to ₹20 per day for nil returns, subject to caps that depend on turnover. Interest at 18% per annum applies on tax paid late. Continued non-filing can lead to suspension or cancellation of registration and blocking of e-way bills.
