Advisory To Taxpayers Liable To File GSTR-1

The taxpayers whose aggregate turnover during preceding financial year exceeded Rs. 1.5 Cr or the new registrants who estimate their turnover to exceed Rs. 1.5 Cr during current financial year, have to file return on monthly basis. Filing of GSTR-1 for the tax period of August, 2017 and onwards is likely to commence soon. In the meantime, such taxpayers can upload the invoices for August, September, October 2017 to avoid last minute rush.

The taxpayers whose aggregate turnover during the preceding financial year remained upto Rs. 1.5 Cr or the new registrants who estimate their turnover to remain upto Rs. 1.5 Cr during current financial year, but who intends to file return on monthly basis, can also upload the invoices for the month of August, 2017.
All other taxpayers liable to file GSTR-1 shall upload the invoices and file GSTR-1 for the quarter ending September, 2017 after the option to file the same is available on the portal. The taxpayers eligible to file return on quarterly basis but have already filed the return for the month of July, 2017, shall have to upload the invoices of August and September jointly and have not to include the invoices of July month again.
The taxpayers who have not filed GSTR-1 for the month of July, are advised to file the same quickly as they will not be able to file GSTR-1 for remainder of quarter (August-September) till they have filed GSTR-1 of July.

The restaurants, which belong to newer chains, have argued for a restoration of ITC, while blaming the withdrawal of the benefit for an increase in prices. Government sources, however, There was no question of a review as the extent of price increase was unjustified.

Time, Place and Value of Supply Under GST.

Under  GST , 3 types of taxes can be charged in the invoice. SGST and CGST in case of an intra-state transaction and IGST in case of an interstate transaction. But deciding whether a particular transaction is inter or intrastate is not an easy task. Think about an online training where customers are sitting in different parts of the world. Or say in case hotel services, where the receiver may have an office in another state and may be visiting the hotel only temporarily. Or where goods are sold on a train journey passing through different states. To help address some of these situations, the IGST act lays down certain rules which define whether a transaction is inter or intrastate. These rules are called the place of supply rules. There are three important concepts: Importance of Time, Place and Value of Supply 1. Time of Supply A. Supply of goods B. Supply for services C. Reverse charge 2. Place of supply A.
