2. Who should file GST Returns?
In the GST regime, any regular business has to file two monthly returns and one annual return. This amounts to 26 returns in a year.
The beauty of the system is that one has to manually enter details of one monthly return – GSTR-1. The other return GSTR 3B will get auto-populated by deriving information from GSTR- 1 filed by you and your vendors.
There are separate returns required to be filed by special cases such as composition dealers.
