GSTR-1 Filing Services

GSTR-1 is the statement of outward supplies under Section 37 of the CGST Act, 2017 read with Rule 59 of the CGST Rules — a monthly or quarterly return in which every GST-registered regular taxpayer reports every B2B invoice, B2C (large and small) sale, export invoice, credit and debit note, advance received, and HSN-wise summary for the tax period. Unlike GSTR-3B, which is a self-assessed summary return, GSTR-1 is invoice-level disclosure — the data filed here directly flows into the recipient's GSTR-2B and determines whether your customer can claim input tax credit on your invoices.

Because GSTR-1 feeds the entire ITC chain of customers, a single wrong GSTIN, incorrect invoice value, wrong tax rate, missed invoice, or misclassified place of supply can trigger ITC loss for a customer, GSTR-2B reconciliation issues, payment withholds, vendor-scorecard downgrades, and eventually notices under Sections 61 and 73/74. Modern businesses also have to sync GSTR-1 with e-invoice IRNs, e-way bills, IFF uploads under QRMP, and GSTR-3B summary — making accurate, timely, and reconciled GSTR-1 filing a core revenue-protection activity, not a routine accounting task.

We offer end-to-end GSTR-1 Filing Services — from structured invoice data intake, e-invoice and sales register reconciliation, HSN / SAC mapping, B2B vs B2C segregation, advance and CN / DN tracking, export and LUT invoicing, IFF uploads under QRMP, GSTR-1 portal filing with DSC / EVC authentication, amendments through Tables 9A / 9B / 9C, and full-month MIS for management — so every outward supply is reported correctly, on time, and in a way that keeps both your and your customer's tax positions fully protected.

FAQs on GSTR-1 Filing

Who is required to file GSTR-1?
GSTR-1 is required to be filed by every normal / regular GST-registered taxpayer under Section 37 of the CGST Act, including exporters, SEZ suppliers, and casual taxable persons. It is not applicable to composition dealers (who file CMP-08 and GSTR-4), input service distributors (GSTR-6), TDS deductors (GSTR-7), e-commerce TCS operators (GSTR-8), non-resident taxable persons (GSTR-5), and OIDAR providers (GSTR-5A). Even if there are no outward supplies in a month, a regular taxpayer must file a Nil GSTR-1 — including through the SMS facility where eligible.
What is the due date for filing GSTR-1?
For monthly filers, GSTR-1 is generally due on the 11th of the month following the tax period. Taxpayers opting under the QRMP scheme (aggregate turnover up to ₹5 crore) file quarterly GSTR-1 by the 13th of the month following the quarter, with an optional monthly IFF upload of B2B invoices by the 13th of the next month. These due dates can be extended from time to time through CBIC notifications, particularly during transitional phases or technical issues. We track each GSTIN's filing frequency and due date on a compliance calendar.
What is the relationship between GSTR-1 and customer GSTR-2B?
The invoices filed by a supplier in GSTR-1 flow into the recipient's auto-generated GSTR-2B for the corresponding period. This GSTR-2B is then the primary statement on which the recipient claims input tax credit in GSTR-3B, subject to Rule 36(4) and related provisions. If a supplier fails to file GSTR-1, delays it, or reports an invoice with an incorrect GSTIN / value / tax, the recipient's ITC can get delayed or denied. Accurate and timely GSTR-1 filing is therefore central to protecting not only the supplier but also the supplier's customer relationships.
Can GSTR-1 be revised after filing?
GST law does not currently permit a straightforward "revised" GSTR-1 for a past period. However, errors can be corrected through amendment tables in later-period GSTR-1 returns — Table 9A is used to amend earlier-period B2B / B2C large invoices, Table 9B handles amendments to earlier credit / debit notes, and Table 9C covers amendments linked to original invoice / CN mapping. Amendments can generally be made up to 30 November of the next financial year or the date of filing GSTR-9, whichever is earlier. We identify errors proactively during monthly reconciliation and correct them in the right table of the next return.
What is the IFF and should we use it under QRMP?
The Invoice Furnishing Facility (IFF) is available to taxpayers under the QRMP scheme to upload B2B invoices in the first two months of a quarter so that their customers can see those invoices in GSTR-2B for each month rather than waiting for the quarter-end GSTR-1. IFF is optional and subject to a prescribed value limit per month. For businesses whose customers rely on monthly ITC claims, using IFF every month is almost always a better choice even under QRMP — it preserves strong customer relationships while retaining the cash-flow benefit of quarterly GSTR-3B.
What is the late fee for non-filing of GSTR-1?
Late filing of GSTR-1 attracts a late fee under Section 47 of the CGST Act, generally set at ₹50 per day (₹25 CGST + ₹25 SGST) and ₹20 per day (₹10 CGST + ₹10 SGST) for nil returns, subject to turnover-based maximum caps notified by the government. Persistent non-filing of GSTR-1 can also block filing of GSTR-3B under Rule 59(6), lead to blocking of e-way bill generation, and trigger scrutiny and audit notices. Our compliance calendar is built specifically to avoid all these consequences.
How do we handle e-invoice and GSTR-1 together?
For taxpayers above the e-invoicing threshold, every B2B, export, and SEZ invoice is first reported to the Invoice Registration Portal (IRP), which generates a unique IRN and QR code. These e-invoice details are then auto-populated into GSTR-1 on the GST portal in the relevant tables. Our workflow reconciles the sales register, e-invoice IRN report, e-way bill data, and auto-populated GSTR-1 so that any mismatches — missing IRNs, cancelled IRNs, or duplications — are caught and fixed before the return is filed. This is particularly critical for export refunds and customer ITC flows.
Can GSTR-3B be filed if GSTR-1 is pending?
No, generally not. As per Rule 59(6) of the CGST Rules, a taxpayer who has not filed GSTR-1 (or IFF, if applicable) for the preceding tax period can be barred from furnishing GSTR-1 / IFF for the next period; and Rule 59(6) / 88C frameworks also link GSTR-3B compliance to GSTR-1 filing. The practical effect is that persistent non-filing of GSTR-1 cascades into blocking of GSTR-3B and e-way bill generation as well. We therefore always treat GSTR-1 as the first priority in the monthly compliance cycle — any delay there quickly snowballs into a wider compliance crisis.
