Compliance & Filing Calendar

Missing a GST deadline costs you late fees and stress. The Compliance calendar is your quiet reminder system β€” it shows each month's filing due dates, whether each return is still pending or overdue, and keeps a tidy history of what you've filed. No more guessing "have I done GSTR-3B this month?"

βš–οΈ Being straight with you
  • It reminds; it doesn't file. The actual return is submitted by you/your CA on the GST portal β€” then you mark it filed here.
  • Due dates follow standard rules for your filing frequency β€” always confirm against the latest GST notifications, as dates can be extended.
  • The figures to file come from your data β€” keep invoices/bills current so the GST report is right. See GST & e-Invoice.

Using the calendar β€” step by step

  1. Open Compliance

    Go to βš–οΈ Compliance. The Filing Deadlines card shows the selected month's returns.

  2. Pick the month

    Choose the tax month. For each return you'll see its Due Date and a colour-coded Status.

  3. File on the GST portal

    Use the figures from Reports β†’ GST to file on the portal (or hand to your CA).

  4. Mark it filed

    Come back and mark the return Filed so the status turns green and your history updates.

Real situations

πŸ“– "Have I filed this month?"

πŸ“– Marking a return filed

After filing GSTR-3B on the portal, he marks it Filed; the row turns green βœ… and the history updates so he has a clean record.

πŸ“– Catching an overdue

A red "πŸ”΄ Overdue 2d ago" jumps out β€” he files immediately to limit late fees.
