GST Annual Return Filing in India – With Expert Assistance from Sahyog
Every registered GST taxpayer in India (except a few exempted categories) is required to file an Annual GST Return to summarize all transactions for a financial year. Failing to file can attract heavy penalties and legal complications. At Sahyog, we make your GST Annual Return Filing smooth, error-free, and compliant, whether you’re a trader, manufacturer, service provider, or e-commerce business.
What is GST Annual Return (GSTR-9)?
GSTR-9 is a compulsory return that every regular GST-registered taxpayer must file once a year. It consolidates the information filed in GSTR-1 (sales), GSTR-3B (monthly summary), and input tax credits claimed. It also includes tax payments, adjustments, and amendments made during the year.
For taxpayers with turnover exceeding ₹5 crore, GSTR-9C must also be filed – this is a reconciliation statement certified by a Chartered Accountant.
