1.2  It may be noted that all registered persons are required to file their FORM GSTR-3B on a monthly basis in terms of Notification No. 35/2017-Central Tax (referred to as “CT‟ hereinafter) dated 15th September, 2017 and 56/2017-CT dated 15th November 2017. Further, Notification No. 71/2017-CT and Notification No. 72/2017 – CT both dated 29th December 2017 (superseding Notification No. 57/2017-CT and 58/2017-CT both dated 15th November 2017) have been issued to notify the due dates for filing of outward supply statement in FORM GSTR-1 for various months / quarters (as depicted in the calendar above) by registered persons having aggregate turnover in the previous financial year or current financial year of upto1.5 Crores rupees and above 1.5 Crores rupees respectively. Since, the option of quarterly filing was not av

st date for filing of FORM GSTR-4 is within eighteen days after the end of such quarter.
1.5  It is also clarified that the registered person will self-assess his aggregate turnover in terms of Section 2(6) of the CGST Act, 2017 for the previous financial year or the current financial year (in case of new registrants). Based on this self-assessed turnover, the registered person with turnover up to Rs. 1.5 Crore will be required to file FORM GSTR-1 on quarterly basis instead of on monthly basis. It is also clarified that the registered person may opt to file FORM GSTR-1 on monthly basis if he so wishes even though his aggregate turnover is up to Rs. 1.5 Crore. Once he falls in this bracket or if he chooses to file return on monthly basis, the registered person will not have the option to change the return filing periodicity for the entire financial year. In cases, where the registered person wrongly reports his aggregate turnover and opts to file FORM GSTR-1 on quarterly basis, he

3. Amendment / corrections / rectification of errors:
3.1 Various representations have been received wherein registered persons have requested for clarification on the procedure for rectification of errors made while filing their FORM GSTR-3B. In this regard, Circular No. 7/7/2017-GST dated 1st September 2017 was issued which clarified that errors committed while filing FORM GSTR – 3B may be rectified while filing FORM GSTR-1 and FORM GSTR-2 of the same month. Further, in the said circular, it was clarified that the system will automatically reconcile the data submitted in FORM GSTR-3B with FORM GSTR-1 and FORM GSTR-2, and the variations if any will either be offset against output tax liability or added to the output tax liability of the subsequent months of the registered person.
3.2 Since, the GST Council has decided that the time period of filing of FORM GSTR-2 and FORM GSTR -3 for the month of July 2017 to March 2018 would be worked out by a Committee of officers, the syst

ax credit, there can be no negative entries in the FORM GSTR-3B. The amount remaining for adjustment, if any, may be adjusted in the return(s) in FORM GSTR-3B of subsequent month(s) and, in cases where such adjustment is not feasible, refund may be claimed. Where adjustments have been made in FORM GSTR-3B of multiple months, corresponding adjustments in FORM GSTR-1 should also preferably be made in the corresponding months.
5. Where the taxpayer has committed an error in submitting (before offsetting and filing) the information in FORM GSTR-3B, a provision for editing the same has been provided. The facility to edit the information can be used only before offsetting the liability and editing will not be permitted after offsetting the liability. Hence, every care should be taken to ensure the accuracy of the figures before proceeding to offset the liabilities.
6. It is further clarified that the information furnished by the registered person in the return in FORM GSTR-3B would be reco

Per: SS GARG
The Revenue has filed the present appeal against the impugned order dt. 13/06/2017 passed by the Commissioner(Appeals) whereby the Commissioner(Appeals) has dropped the penalties under Section 77 & 78.
2. Briefly the facts of the present case are that the respondents are registered with the Department under the category of Information Technology Software Service and Information Technology Enabled Services. A show-cause notice was issued to the respondent for various demands. After following the due process, the original authority confirmed the demands of being service tax not paid on r

5 On the other hand, the learned counsel for the assessee defended the impugned order and submitted that the learned Commissioner(Appeals) after examining all the facts have dropped the penalty which is justified because there was no suppression of facts on the part of the respondent. He further submitted that imposition of penalty under Section 78 of the Finance Act is in contravention of the provisions of Section 73(3) of the Finance Act. He further submitted that the service tax along with interest has already been paid by the assessee before the issuance of the show-cause notice. He also submitted that Section 73(3) of the Finance Act is in unambiguous

6. After considering the submissions of both the sides and perusal of material on record and the various judgments relied upon by the respondent, I am of the considered view that Section 73(3) is very clear as it says that if the tax is paid along with interest before the issuance of the show-cause notice, then in that case, show-cause notice need not be issued. In the present case, I find that is on account of bona fide mistake that the service tax was not paid and as soon as it was pointed out by the audit part, the assessee paid the service tax along with interest. Further I find that there was no material brought on record by the Revenue to establish that there was suppression on the part of the assessee.
