GST Returns For Your Startup and Due Dates

Because of GST in India, the Indian financial sector has leveraged a more efficient and clear tax structure. Before the implementation of GST, startups having a turnover of more than Rs 5 lakhs, were supposed to pay a huge amount of tax as VAT; but with GST, this number has increased to Rs 20 lakhs. 

All this has helped small businesses and startups to remain out of the tax bracket and focus on their core competencies. It has also helped in saving money from the capital funds; also, startups can rely on simple tax calculations. The entire GST return filing services has been made online, right from filing registration forms to GST returns.

Who Should Register?

If you have a startup with a turnover exceeding Rs 40 lakh in a year, then you should register your business under GST.  If not, you can still register voluntarily. Then you will have to opt for GST filing services for filing the GST returns under the law.
