What is GST compliance?
GST is charged on supplies of goods and services. Once registered, a business files monthly or quarterly returns, reconciles its input tax credit with suppliers' data, and files an annual return.
When must a business in Anna University register?
A supplier of goods in Tamil Nadu must register once aggregate turnover crosses ₹40 lakh in a financial year, and a supplier of services once it crosses ₹20 lakh (section 22 of the CGST Act, 2017). Some must register regardless of turnover, including inter-state suppliers of goods and persons liable to pay tax under reverse charge (section 24). The composition scheme is available up to ₹1.5 crore of turnover for goods (section 10).
How do we keep input credit safe?
Credit is allowed only if the supplier has reported the invoice and it appears in your GSTR-2B (section 16(2)(aa)). We use the Invoice Management System to accept, reject or keep supplier invoices pending each month, and follow up unreported invoices before the return, which avoids most mismatch notices.
