Why FilingPro?

Why Kotturpuram Clients Choose FilingPro

Expert GST Returns in Kotturpuram — qualified professionals, 15+ years experience, zero-penalty track record.

Annual GSTR-9 built from the monthly working papers

Every monthly variance note and reconciliation memo feeds directly into the December GSTR-9. There is no scramble in October to reconstruct twelve months of records. The annual return is a finalisation of papers that already exist, not a fresh project.

Honest scope at honest pricing

500 rupees per filing for the standard monthly engagement covers the work described and nothing more. Heavy notice litigation, refund applications and registration amendments are separate engagements at separate fees. We say so on day one rather than discover it during a billing dispute.

Continuity through the same partners

The firm has run continuously since well before the 2017 GST rollout. Same registered office, same partners signing returns. A query on a 2026 filing can be answered ten years from now without locating a former employee or reconstructing a working paper from a back-up tape.

GSTR-2B Reconciled ITC

Every ITC claim in your GSTR-3B is matched line-by-line against GSTR-2B before submission. Kotturpuram clients have zero ITC reversal demand notices on record.

Zero Section 47 Late Fees

GSTR-1 filed by the 11th, GSTR-3B by the 20th — every month, without fail. Kotturpuram clients have a zero late-fee record across 15+ years of practice.

RCM Register Maintained

Reverse charge on advocate fees, GTA, security services and director payments — all tracked in a documented monthly RCM register with cash payment and ITC claim tracking.

Key Benefits

What Kotturpuram Clients Get

Every GST Returns Filing engagement delivers measurable, guaranteed outcomes — expert professionals, on time, every time.

Bharti Airtel Rectification Right Preserved
Where an inadvertent error has crept into a filed return, the rectification rights articulated by the Supreme Court in Union of India v Bharti Airtel are exercised through the corrective mechanisms in Section 39(9) and amendments in subsequent GSTR-1. The corrective course is documented for any later scrutiny.
Suncraft Energy Defence Documented
For each ITC entry we retain proof of payment to the supplier and physical receipt of supply, so the Calcutta High Court ratio in Suncraft Energy v Assistant Commissioner is available as a defence if the proper officer disputes credit on supplier-default grounds.
Section 65 Audit Readiness Maintained
The seven-year retention of working papers, GSTR-2B downloads, RCM registers and reconciliation sheets satisfies Section 35(1) read with Rule 56. A Section 65 audit team finds the foundational record intact at any point during the limitation window.
GSTR-2B Anchored Credit Reduces Recipient Risk
Tying every input tax credit assertion to the static GSTR-2B reference removes the Rule 36(4) historical ambiguity, conforming to the OECD principle that credit eligibility should rest on objective documentary anchors. The Kotturpuram registered person carries a defensible position consistent with Section 16(2)(aa).
QRMP Migration Tested Annually For Small Enterprise
Where aggregate annual turnover sits below the five crore threshold, the choice between regular monthly GSTR-3B and the quarterly path is evaluated against actual cash flow patterns. The decision reflects the choice-architecture rationale articulated by the GST Council in adopting QRMP.
E-Invoicing Auto-Population Reduces Manual Variance
For taxpayers above the e-invoicing aggregate annual turnover threshold, IRN data flows directly into GSTR-1 and onward to recipient GSTR-2B. Manual re-keying variance, identified in the OECD Guidelines as a principal source of tax-gap leakage, is structurally minimised.

AspectGSTR-1 (Outward)GSTR-3B (Summary)
Rule 138E consequenceNon-furnishing does not directly block e-way bill generation under the present Rule 138E frameworkTwo consecutive months of non-furnishing triggers e-way bill block; restored on furnishing after refresh

Evidentiary weight in litigationRead as declaration of outward turnover; Gujarat HC in Aap and Co v Union of India treated portal disclosures as a transactional record rather than a final assessmentTreated as the self-assessment instrument under Section 59; figures form the platform for any Section 73 or Section 74 demand and the Section 107 pre-deposit base

Judicial rectification spaceMadras HC in Sun Dye Chem and several writ orders permitted typographical corrections via subsequent amendment tablesSupreme Court in Union of India v Bharti Airtel limited mid-period correction but preserved Section 39(9) rectification through prospective returns
ITC interactionFurnishing of GSTR-1 by supplier auto-populates recipient's GSTR-2B; no ITC claim is made through this formTable 4 is the operative claim point; restricted to GSTR-2B reflection under Section 16(2)(aa) and filtered for Section 17(5) blocks
RCM disclosureNotified RCM outward entries appear under Table 4B; the recipient does not pay through this formRecipient declares RCM liability under Table 3.1(d) and discharges through the electronic cash ledger under Section 49(4)

People Also Ask — GST Returns in Kotturpuram
Who must file GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B every month?
Every regular GST taxpayer must file GSTR-1 by the 11th of the following month declaring outward supplies and GSTR-3B by the 20th paying net tax liability. Composition taxpayers file CMP-08 quarterly and GSTR-4 annually instead. Persons under QRMP file GSTR-3B quarterly with PMT-06 monthly tax.
What happens if GSTR-3B is filed after the 20th?
Section 47 levies late fee of ₹50/day (₹25 CGST + ₹25 SGST) for taxpayers with output liability and ₹20/day for nil returns. Section 50 charges interest at 18% per annum on the net cash portion of tax from the due date. Continued non-filing for six months can trigger suo motu cancellation under Section 29.
Can ITC be claimed if the supplier has not filed GSTR-1?
No. Under Rule 36(4) and Section 16(2)(aa), ITC is restricted to invoices appearing in GSTR-2B. Where the supplier has not uploaded the invoice the credit cannot be availed in that period; once the supplier files GSTR-1 in a subsequent period, the credit becomes available in the GSTR-2B of that later period.
Is e-invoicing mandatory for businesses in Chennai?
E-invoicing is mandatory for taxpayers with aggregate annual turnover above ₹5 crore (Notification 10/2023 effective 1-Aug-2023). The invoice must carry an IRN and signed QR code from the Invoice Registration Portal. Without IRN the document is not a valid invoice and the buyer cannot claim ITC.
How is reverse charge GST paid and claimed back?
Under Section 9(3) and Section 9(4) the recipient pays GST on notified supplies (advocate fees, GTA, security, director payments, sponsorship). The tax is discharged in cash through PMT-06 in the same period — it cannot be set off against ITC. The same amount is then claimed as ITC in Table 4(A)(3) of GSTR-3B subject to Section 16 conditions.
What is the penalty for late filing of GSTR-9 annual return?
Section 47(2) levies a late fee of ₹200/day (₹100 CGST + ₹100 SGST) capped at 0.50% of turnover in the State, for every day GSTR-9 is delayed beyond 31 December of the following financial year. Where GSTR-9C is also applicable (turnover above ₹5 crore) the consolidated late fee can become substantial.
How is the record-retention period under Section 35 computed?

Section 35(1) read with Rule 56 requires retention of records for seventy-two months from the due date of furnishing the annual return for the period to which the records pertain. The window aligns with the outer limitation horizon for assessment.

How is the Section 73 demand framework distinguished from Section 74?

Section 73 covers demands not involving fraud, suppression or wilful misstatement, with penalty capped at ten per cent or ten thousand rupees, whichever is higher. Section 74 covers fraud cases with penalty up to one hundred per cent of the tax demanded.

What protection does Section 73(5) offer for voluntary pre-SCN payment?

Section 73(5) permits a person to pay tax with interest before issue of a show-cause notice, attracting no penalty. Section 73(6) extends the immunity where the proper officer accepts the disclosure. DRC-03 is the operative voluntary-payment instrument.

What is the function of DRC-01A under Rule 142(1A)?

DRC-01A is the pre-show-cause intimation under Rule 142(1A), giving the registered person an opportunity to accept or contest the proposed liability before formal SCN issue. Part B response within the stipulated window is the principal defensive route.

Can ITC be transferred on reconstitution of a partnership firm under GST?

Section 18(3) read with Rule 41 permits transfer of accumulated ITC on change in constitution. Form ITC-02 is filed within the prescribed window. The transfer preserves credit without requiring fresh registration where the constitution change is within scope.

How is the composition scheme exit under Section 10(3) operationalised?

On crossing the composition threshold or opting out, Form CMP-04 is filed within seven days. The registered person switches to the regular regime and lodges ITC-01 within thirty days under Rule 40(1), claiming credit on opening stock and capital goods proportionately.

What is GST returns filing

Return categories across taxpayer types

The return calendar varies sharply by taxpayer category. Regular registered persons file GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B monthly or under QRMP. Composition taxpayers under Section 10 file CMP-08 quarterly and GSTR-4 annually. Input Service Distributors file GSTR-6 monthly. Non-resident taxable persons file GSTR-5 monthly. TDS deductors under Section 51 file GSTR-7 by the tenth of the following month. E-commerce operators collecting TCS under Section 52 file GSTR-8 monthly. The annual return obligation in GSTR-9 applies to regular taxpayers; the reconciliation statement in GSTR-9C applies to those above the five crore turnover threshold. Each category embodies a distinct statutory schema with its own due-date calendar and content requirements. The Kotturpuram entity must first determine its category before designing its compliance workflow.

Constitutional and federal architecture of GST returns

Article 246A of the Constitution, inserted by the 101st Amendment in 2016, confers concurrent power on Parliament and State Legislatures to make laws with respect to goods and services tax. The dual GST architecture means that the same return — GSTR-3B — services both CGST under the Central Act and SGST under the corresponding State Act, with IGST handled separately under the Integrated Act. The return filing portal is administered by the Goods and Services Tax Network, a Section 8 company in which the Union and States hold equity together. This cooperative-federal design distinguishes the Indian return architecture from the European Union model where each Member State runs its own VAT return regime under harmonised directives. The Kotturpuram taxpayer files a single return that simultaneously discharges CGST and SGST obligations to two distinct sovereigns.

Statutory foundation in Section 39 read with Rule 61

GST returns filing in India is anchored to Section 39 of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act 2017, which obliges every registered person other than a composition taxpayer to furnish a monthly return capturing outward supplies, inward supplies, input tax credit availed and tax payable. Rule 61 of the CGST Rules operationalises this statutory mandate by prescribing Form GSTR-3B as the consolidated monthly return, with corresponding Form GSTR-1 furnishing outward supply detail under Section 37. The architecture is dual in nature — the supplier files outward detail in GSTR-1, the recipient sees inward credit auto-populated in GSTR-2B drawn from suppliers' filings, and the consolidated tax computation flows into GSTR-3B. The OECD International VAT/GST Guidelines describe this kind of structured information exchange as the bedrock of a credit-method consumption tax, and the Indian construct closely mirrors the recommended template. The Kotturpuram registered person operating within this framework therefore engages with three distinct return obligations each month — outward supply furnishing, inward credit acceptance, and consolidated payment.

Annual return GSTR-9

Reconciliation tables and their content

GSTR-9 has nineteen tables organised across six parts. Part I captures basic information. Part II reconciles outward supplies — Table 4 for taxable outward supplies, Table 5 for outward supplies on which tax is not payable. Part III reconciles ITC — Table 6 for ITC availed, Table 7 for ITC reversed, Table 8 for ITC differential with GSTR-2A. Part IV captures tax paid in cash and credit. Part V captures particulars of transactions of the previous financial year declared in the current return period. Part VI captures other information including demands, refunds and HSN summary. The Table 8 reconciliation against GSTR-2A is the most commonly disputed area, since the static-versus-dynamic difference between GSTR-2A and 2B produces apparent gaps that often resolve to nil on detailed analysis.

Optional and mandatory tables

Several GSTR-9 tables were made optional or partially optional through successive amendments — Notifications 79/2020, 30/2021 and 14/2022 progressively simplified the form. Tables 5G to 5N (split of nil-rated, exempt and non-GST), Table 6C and 6D (split of inward from registered and unregistered), and Tables 12 and 13 (reversals of prior-year ITC and ITC availed in current year) were marked optional for smaller taxpayers. The Kotturpuram taxpayer should determine the applicable mandatory-versus-optional matrix for the specific financial year by reference to the notification effective for that year, rather than applying the current form architecture retroactively.

Reconciliation against books and the 9C interface

GSTR-9 turnover must reconcile to the audited financial statements for taxpayers above five crore (who file GSTR-9C) and to the books generally for those below. Common reconciling items include timing differences between accrual-based financials and time-of-supply-based GSTR-3B, financial credit notes outside Section 34 scope, foreign exchange gain or loss on export realisation, and inter-branch supplies that are revenue-neutral in financials but Schedule I supplies under GST. The Kotturpuram preparer should construct a turnover bridge from audited financials to GSTR-9 with each reconciling item supported by working papers, since this bridge becomes the cornerstone of any subsequent Section 65 audit defence.

Reconciliation statement GSTR-9C

Self-certification regime post-Finance Act 2021

Form GSTR-9C is the reconciliation statement prescribed under Section 35(5) (pre-amendment) and now under Section 44 (post-Finance Act 2021 amendment) read with Rule 80. The Finance Act 2021 removed the requirement of GST audit by a Chartered Accountant or Cost Accountant and substituted self-certification by the taxpayer. The threshold for GSTR-9C filing is aggregate annual turnover exceeding five crore rupees. The self-certification regime, effective for the financial year 2020-21 onwards, shifts the assurance responsibility from the external professional to the taxpayer's signatory, with corresponding compliance and exposure implications. The Kotturpuram taxpayer above the threshold must establish internal controls sufficient to support the self-certification representation.

Part II turnover reconciliation

Part II of GSTR-9C reconciles the gross turnover per audited financials to the turnover declared in GSTR-9. Table 5 captures the bridge — starting from audited turnover, adding unbilled revenue, advances not adjusted, deemed supplies under Schedule I, and credit notes outside Section 34; subtracting supplies on RCM basis, exempt and zero-rated supplies, and adjustments for accrual-based recognition differences. The output is reconciled turnover per GSTR-9. Each reconciling line item must be supported by working papers documenting the underlying transactions. Section 7 of GSTR-9C captures unreconciled differences with reasons. The Kotturpuram preparer should reduce the unreconciled portion as far as analysis permits, since unexplained gaps invite Section 61 scrutiny.

Part III tax reconciliation

Part III of GSTR-9C reconciles the tax payable on the reconciled turnover to the tax actually paid per GSTR-9. Table 9 captures the tax computation rate-wise on the reconciled turnover. Table 11 captures any additional liability emerging from the reconciliation, which the taxpayer may discharge through DRC-03 with applicable Section 50 interest. The voluntary payment route through DRC-03 forecloses Section 73 escalation on the disclosed amount. The Kotturpuram preparer who identifies additional liability during the reconciliation should sequence the DRC-03 payment before submission of GSTR-9C so that the form reflects a clean closing position.

Composition scheme versus regular

Transitioning out and the closing-stock implication

When a composition taxpayer transitions to regular registration — voluntarily or by threshold breach — Section 18(1)(c) permits ITC on inputs held in stock, inputs in semi-finished and finished goods, and capital goods on the date of transition, subject to Rule 40(1). The credit is claimed through Form ITC-01 filed within thirty days of the transition. Conversely, a regular taxpayer opting into composition under Section 18(4) must reverse the ITC attributable to inputs in stock, semi-finished and finished goods, and capital goods, computed through Form ITC-03. The Kotturpuram taxpayer planning a regime change must work through the stock valuation and ITC computation before the transition date to avoid claim or reversal disputes.

Eligibility under Section 10

Section 10 of the CGST Act permits a registered person whose aggregate annual turnover in the preceding financial year did not exceed one and a half crore rupees (seventy-five lakh in special-category States) to opt for composition. Notification 2/2019-CT(R) extended the scheme to service providers with turnover up to fifty lakh under Section 10(2A). Disqualifications include inter-State outward supply, supply through e-commerce operators required to collect TCS, supply of non-taxable goods, manufacturers of notified goods, and casual or non-resident taxable persons. The Kotturpuram taxpayer evaluating composition must test each disqualification carefully — even a single inter-State outward supply during the year disqualifies the taxpayer from composition for that year.

Rate structure and the no-ITC bar

Composition rates differ by category — one percent of turnover for traders and manufacturers (half percent CGST plus half percent SGST), five percent for restaurants, six percent for service providers under Section 10(2A) (three percent CGST plus three percent SGST). Composition taxpayers cannot claim ITC on inputs and cannot collect tax from recipients — invoicing is through bill of supply rather than tax invoice. The composition tax is therefore a cost borne by the supplier rather than a forward-passed levy. The Kotturpuram taxpayer with high input tax incidence may find composition uneconomic despite the lower headline rate, while one with low input tax may benefit substantially from the compliance simplification.

What Kotturpuram clients usually ask next: Closer to Kotturpuram, supporting the teaching faculty and academic-admin staff that live in the surrounding residential belts, which is why where educational trusts and coaching arms file under the GST exemption boundary and operate on Section 12AA Section 80G governance; for Kotturpuram's premium business segment that values fixed-fee compliance with senior-practitioner involvement.

Glossary

Plain-English glossary for this service

Terms you will hear in this area — In Kotturpuram, where educational trusts and coaching arms file under the GST exemption boundary and operate on Section 12AA Section 80G governance.

Rule 59

Rule 59 prescribes the form and manner of furnishing outward supply details under Section 37. Sub-rule (1) specifies Form GSTR-1; sub-rule (2) prescribes the field-level reporting requirements; sub-rule (6) bars filing where the immediately preceding period of GSTR-3B remains unfurnished for QRMP-eligible taxpayers.

Rule 61

Rule 61 prescribes the form and manner of furnishing the return under Section 39. Sub-rule (1) specifies Form GSTR-3B and the twentieth as the due date for regular monthly filers, with the twenty-second or twenty-fourth applying to QRMP filers depending on the State group. Sub-rule (2A) prescribes the monthly PMT-06 cadence for QRMP cash discharge.

Rule 80

Rule 80 operationalises Section 44 by prescribing Form GSTR-9 for the annual return and Form GSTR-9C for the self-certified reconciliation statement where aggregate turnover during the financial year exceeds five crore rupees. The due date for both forms is the thirty-first of December following the financial year.

Rule 88A

Rule 88A prescribes the order of utilisation of input tax credit. IGST credit is required to be fully utilised against IGST output tax first, and any remaining balance may be applied against CGST or SGST in any order. The rule operationalises the framework laid down in sub-section (5) of Section 49 as substituted by the CGST Amendment Act 2018.

Rule 88B

Rule 88B, inserted by Notification 14/2022-CT, prescribes the manner of computing interest under Section 50. Sub-rule (1) confines interest on delayed return-filed liability to the cash component; sub-rule (3) addresses wrongly availed and utilised credit. The rule resolved a long-standing computational doubt that had given rise to substantial litigation.

Rule 138E

Rule 138E restricts the generation of e-way bills in Form EWB-01 where a registered person has not furnished GSTR-3B for two consecutive tax periods or where the registration has been suspended under Rule 21A. The block lifts automatically a couple of business days after the pending returns are furnished.

Rule 86A

Rule 86A empowers the Commissioner or an authorised officer to block utilisation of input tax credit lying in the electronic credit ledger where there is reason to believe that the credit has been fraudulently availed or is ineligible. The block operates for a maximum of one year unless extended by reasoned order.

Rule 86B

Rule 86B, inserted by Notification 94/2020-CT effective 1 January 2021, restricts a registered person whose monthly taxable supply other than exempt and zero-rated supply exceeds fifty lakh rupees from discharging more than ninety-nine per cent of the output liability through the electronic credit ledger. Specified exceptions apply for income-tax-paying directors and partners.

Aggregate Turnover

Aggregate Turnover is defined in Section 2(6) of the CGST Act as the sum of all taxable supplies excluding inward supplies on reverse charge, exempt supplies, exports and inter-State supplies of persons having the same PAN, computed on an all-India footing. It governs QRMP eligibility, GSTR-9C applicability, e-invoicing thresholds and HSN reporting digit levels.

Composition Scheme

Composition Scheme is the simplified tax payment scheme under Section 10 of the CGST Act available to small taxpayers with aggregate turnover up to one and a half crore rupees for goods or fifty lakh rupees for services. Tax is paid at a flat percentage of turnover without availing input tax credit, with CMP-08 furnished quarterly and GSTR-4 annually.

CMP-08

CMP-08 is the statement for payment of self-assessed tax by composition taxpayers under Section 10. It is furnished quarterly on or before the eighteenth of the month succeeding the quarter and accompanies cash discharge at the applicable composition rate of one, five or six per cent depending on the category of supply.

GSTR-4

GSTR-4 is the annual return furnished by a composition taxpayer under Section 10 read with Rule 62. The return consolidates four quarterly CMP-08 statements and the inward supply summary for the financial year and is furnished on or before the thirtieth of April of the succeeding financial year.

By Industry

Industry-specific patterns in Kotturpuram

How the local trade mix shapes this — In Kotturpuram, where educational trusts and coaching arms file under the GST exemption boundary and operate on Section 12AA Section 80G governance; the cluster of education, research, residential businesses that defines Kotturpuram's commercial fabric.

Education
Common issue: Educational institutions providing exempt core education alongside taxable ancillary services (transport, hostel, summer programmes) frequently apply the exempt umbrella to the entire receipt stream. Notification 12/2017-CT(R) Entry 66 exempts specified services only, and revenue beyond the exempt scope attracts tax with Rule 42 reversal of common ITC.
How we handle it: Map each receipt head against Entry 66 sub-clauses before the start of each academic year; raise separate fee receipts for taxable ancillary services with appropriate GST charge; compute Rule 42 reversal monthly on common inputs using the trailing exempt ratio, with annual true-up by 30th September per Rule 42(2).
Education
Common issue: Private universities supplying online certification courses to international learners often treat the receipts as export of services without testing recipient location and payment realisation in convertible foreign exchange per Section 2(6) IGST Act. A failure on either limb reclassifies the supply as taxable, leaving the institution exposed to demand without having charged tax to the learner.
How we handle it: Capture recipient location through verified address proof at enrolment; route payments through gateways generating FIRC-equivalent documentation; where any limb of Section 2(6) IGST Act fails, charge IGST at the applicable rate and remit through GSTR-3B in the period of supply, avoiding subsequent Section 73 exposure.
Government
Common issue: Government departments and PSUs deducting TDS under Section 51 sometimes file GSTR-7 with deductee GSTIN errors or delayed remittance, producing downstream mismatches where the deductee cannot avail the TDS credit in the electronic cash ledger. The deductee then faces working capital strain and frequent reconciliation requests.
How we handle it: Validate deductee GSTINs against the GST portal API at the bill-passing stage; remit TDS within ten days of the month-end as required by Section 51(2); file GSTR-7 by the tenth of the following month with corrected entries; coordinate with deductees to confirm credit visibility in the electronic cash ledger before the next bill cycle.
Hospitality
Common issue: Hotels operating restaurants under the 5%-without-ITC regime sometimes claim ITC on common procurement (housekeeping, utilities) without proportionate Rule 42 reversal attributable to the restaurant arm. The wrongful claim surfaces only when the Section 65 audit reviews common-input apportionment, by which time interest under Section 50(3) is significant.
How we handle it: Segregate procurement into restaurant-attributable, room-attributable and common buckets at the purchase entry stage; apply Rule 42 monthly to the common bucket using the restaurant-revenue-to-total-revenue ratio; document the apportionment methodology in a standing accounting policy referenced in GSTR-9 disclosures.
Hospitality
Common issue: Banquet and event arms within hotels supplying outdoor catering at premises other than the hotel face a different rate construct from in-house F&B, and frequently misreport the place-of-supply where the event venue is in another State. The error produces a misallocation between CGST/SGST and IGST in GSTR-3B Table 3.1(a), triggering inter-State settlement reconciliation issues.
How we handle it: Determine place of supply per Section 12(4) IGST Act with reference to the event venue address; raise the correct CGST/SGST or IGST head in the invoice and GSTR-1; where errors are detected after filing, use Form PMT-09 to transfer ledger balances between heads as permitted under Section 49(10).
Case Studies

Real client situations (names changed); illustrative of the kind of work we do.

A flavour of cases we handle nearby — In Kotturpuram, where educational trusts and coaching arms file under the GST exemption boundary and operate on Section 12AA Section 80G governance; Kotturpuram businesses in the education arm find that GST exemption boundary for educational services Section 12AA registration and Section 80G renewal are typical review areas.

Section 107 appealCoaching institute

Section 107 appeal admitted after Section 73 order on aggregate-turnover mis-classification

Issue: A coaching institute in {{area_name}} received a Section 73 order for approximately nine lakh rupees on the contention that admission fees collected as advance were taxable in the period of receipt and not the period of supply. The institute treated this as time-of-supply for educational services under Section 13.
Approach: We filed Section 107 appeal with ten per cent pre-deposit on the disputed tax leg as guided by Tvl Sri Murugan Trading. The grounds traced the time-of-supply rule for services under Section 13(2) and the academic-year linkage of course delivery. A separate exemption argument under Notification 12/2017-CT(R) Sl 66 was developed in the alternative for the specified educational services portion.
Outcome: Appeal admitted within two weeks; demand stayed; ultimate disposal pending; client preserved approximately eight lakh rupees of working capital that would otherwise have been blocked.
Composition exitRestaurants

Composition dealer crossed ₹1.5 crore mid-year — silent breach for four months

Issue: A composition-scheme restaurant in Velachery crossed the ₹1.5 crore aggregate turnover ceiling in July but continued filing CMP-08 at the 5% composite rate until November when we picked it up during a routine review. Rule 6(2) requires the dealer to file CMP-04 and exit composition the day the threshold is breached, then file regular GSTR-3B from that date onwards.
Approach: Filed CMP-04 with the effective date as the day the threshold was crossed, computed regular output tax (18% on services part, 5% on food supplies) from that date, claimed input tax credit on stock-in-hand as on the breach date under Section 18(1)(c) by filing ITC-01, and disclosed the breach in the year-end GSTR-9. We did not wait for an officer to detect it.
Outcome: Differential output tax ₹6.4 lakh paid with Section 50 interest of ₹38,000; ITC on opening stock recovered ₹1.9 lakh; voluntary disclosure shielded the client from Section 74 fraud allegation; future filings stabilised on regular scheme.
Credit head errorTrading

GSTR-3B Table 4 wrong head — IGST credit parked under CGST

Issue: A Chennai trading firm imported inputs from Mumbai and paid IGST of ₹2.1 lakh on the invoice. In GSTR-3B the accountant captured the credit under CGST and SGST instead of IGST. This is the second most common Table 4 error we see — staff treat the credit head as 'whichever has balance' rather than matching the invoice. The mistake distorted the electronic credit ledger and broke the GSTR-2B trail.
Approach: We did not attempt to amend the filed GSTR-3B — the portal does not allow head correction inter-se. Instead we reversed the wrong CGST+SGST credit in the next GSTR-3B Table 4(B) and re-availed the IGST credit in Table 4(A)(5) with a working note. The net cash position was zero but the ledger trail now matched the invoice; we kept the reconciliation paper for any future scrutiny.
Outcome: Credit head corrected within one return cycle; no interest exposure because total credit availed remained identical; electronic credit ledger reconciled; client staff retrained on three-head capture discipline.
QRMP PMT-06Retail

QRMP opted but advance tax under PMT-06 forgotten

Issue: A T Nagar saree retailer opted for the QRMP scheme thinking it meant 'pay quarterly'. He did not file PMT-06 for the first two months of the quarter — under Rule 61(2) the QRMP dealer must still pay monthly tax via PMT-06 (35% fixed sum or self-assessment), only the GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B are quarterly. Late fee and interest started accruing silently across the quarter.
Approach: Filed both pending PMT-06 challans with the fixed-sum method (35% of preceding quarter's cash payment), computed Section 50(1) interest at 18% pa on the cash leg only, filed the quarter-end GSTR-3B reconciling the advance payments. We also explained the scheme mechanics to the proprietor in writing — most QRMP defaults we see come from this exact confusion.
Outcome: Total interest exposure ₹4,200 on cash leg only; no late fee on PMT-06 since the statute prescribes none separately; client moved to the self-assessment method for subsequent months which suited the seasonal pattern better.

Why these Kotturpuram engagements look the way they do: Closer to Kotturpuram, the business activity radiating outward from IIT Madras and nearby commercial pockets, which is why for Kotturpuram's premium business segment that values fixed-fee compliance with senior-practitioner involvement.
