GSTR-3B Filing Process

GSTR-3B is a simplified summary return that enables taxpayers to declare and pay their GST liabilities for a given tax period. The timely submission of this return ensures that both the Central and State Governments receive their due revenue.

Steps to File GSTR-3B:

Step 1: Initiate Filing

Step 2: Prepare the Return

Step 3: Claim Input Tax Credit (ITC)
  1. Access Eligible ITC to claim available ITC.
  2. Choose Auto Populate GSTR-2B to automatically fetch ITC data.
  3. Adjust ITC amounts if needed by selecting specific rows and making necessary adjustments.
      

Step 4: Review the Return
  1. Click Review to carefully verify all entered details for accuracy.
      

Step 5: Offset Tax Liability
  1. In the ITC Utilization Table, offset your tax liability with available ITC.
  2. Any remaining tax balance will display in the Cash Utilization Table.
  3. Use the Create Challan option to generate and pay the outstanding tax. After payment, refresh the Cash Utilization Table to update the balance.
      

Step 6: Submit the Return
  1. Once all entries are confirmed, select File GSTR-3B (EVC/DSC).
  2. Save the return on the portal and complete verification using either EVC (Electronic Verification Code) or DSC (Digital Signature Certificate).
