In a big relief to taxpayers, the government has extended the
due date of filing GST annual return (GSTR-9) and reconciliation
statement (GSTR-9C) to 31 March 2019. The government has also
announced that the online utilities would be made available
shortly. Extension of the due dates, along with the release of the
online utilities, should help the businesses to better prepare for
filing GSTR-9 and GSTR-9C by collating the relevant information
from its financial statements, and the GST returns filed during the
year. The additional time should enable the government to clarify
certain issues in GSTR-9 and GSTR-9C, which have led to the
confusion in the industry.
