Who Needs to File GST Annual Returns?

Who Needs to File GST Annual Returns?

  • If you’re a regular taxpayer under GST (i.e., not composition scheme) and had registration during the year, you will likely need to file GSTR-9.

  • The turnover threshold plays a role: for example taxpayers with an aggregate turnover above ₹2 crore in a financial year are required to file GSTR-9.

  • Some categories are exempt or have different forms: e.g., composition taxpayers, casual taxable persons, non-residents may have other requirements.

  • Even if your registration was cancelled during the year, you may still need to file for that registration period. 

Documents Required

  • Summary of outward supplies (sales) and inward supplies (purchases) for the full financial year.

  • Copies of monthly/quarterly returns (GSTR-1, GSTR-3B) for the year. These form the base data for reconciliation.

  • Details of Input Tax Credit (ITC) claimed, reversed, or unpaid – year-wise.

  • Audited financial statements, if applicable (especially for GSTR-9C cases).

  • Bank statements / accounting data to support reconciliation of turnover, taxes paid and credits.

  • Any notices, demands, adjustments or late fees pertaining to the year.

  • If a part of the year you were under composition or switched schemes – records of the switch.

    • Follow-up & Payment – If there are additional liabilities (tax, interest, late fee), we guide you through payment and confirmation.

    • Compliance Closure – We deliver a “return filing done” certificate / acknowledgement and advise on next year’s filings and ongoing compliance.
