Quarterly GST Compliances

Understanding Quarterly GST Compliances

Some businesses don’t need to file their GST returns every month — they fall under the quarterly filing category, which gives them more breathing space while still ensuring full compliance with the law. Quarterly GST compliance means you submit your returns once every three months, reconcile your purchases and sales for the entire quarter, and keep your records updated.

Quarterly filings reduce routine paperwork but still demand discipline, accuracy and timely submissions. Missing a quarterly deadline has the same consequences as missing a monthly one — late fees, interest, notices, and loss of input tax credit.

Key points:
• Quarterly filing applies to eligible small businesses under specific schemes or turnover limits.
• You must submit quarterly GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, or other applicable returns based on your category.
• Even though returns are quarterly, tracking sales, purchases and ITC happens continuously.
• Quarterly filing reduces frequency but not responsibility — all details must be accurate and updated.
• Strong quarterly compliance helps avoid year-end mismatches, refunds delays and audit issues.

How We Manage Your Quarterly GST Filings

Quarterly GST compliance should feel organised and predictable — not rushed. Our structured workflow ensures your returns are filed accurately every time.

Our approach:
• Quarter-end review: We connect with you before each quarter closes to ensure all transactions are recorded properly.
• Data collection: You share your sales invoices, purchase invoices, credit/debit notes and any adjustments for the quarter.
• Reconciliation: We match your books with GSTR-2B, check ITC eligibility, validate GSTINs and calculate liabilities.
• Return preparation: Based on verified data, we prepare GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B with accurate quarterly values.
• Filing & payment: Returns are filed well before deadlines, and we help you complete tax payments as required.
• Post-filing insights: You get a summary of the quarter’s compliance — ITC claimed, tax paid, pending items and next steps.
• Rectification support: If any supplier filing mismatch or amendments arise later, we assist with corrections.

Documents & Information Needed Each Quarter

Keeping your quarterly records organised helps in smooth filing without last-minute stress. Sharing complete and accurate data ensures quick turnaround and error-free returns.

Keep these handy:
• All quarterly sales invoices with GST details and place of supply.
• Purchase invoices with GST breakdown and supplier GSTIN.
• Details of exports, zero-rated sales or supplies under LUT.
• Any advances received, credit notes, debit notes or adjustments.
• Bank statements showing GST tax payments and business transactions.
• Last quarter’s return acknowledgments and any pending amendments.
• Any GST notices or communications received during the quarter.
• Information about new branches, business changes or additional registrations if applicable.
