Last Chance for Non-QRMP GST Taxpayers: File June GSTR-1 by Today.

Attention GST taxpayers!

If you’re not enrolled in the QRMP (Quarterly Return with Monthly Payment) Scheme, today—July 11, 2025—is your last date to file Form GSTR-1 for June 2025. The Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) has reminded all monthly GST filers to ensure timely submission to avoid penalties and compliance issues.

This is not just a deadline—it’s a crucial compliance step that can directly impact your business and your clients. Let’s break down what this means and why timely filing is essential.

Who Needs to File GSTR-1 by July 11, 2025?

All GST taxpayers not registered under the QRMP Scheme.
Businesses with an annual turnover exceeding ₹5 crore.
Any taxpayer who has opted for monthly GST filing, regardless of turnover.

The due date for filing monthly GSTR-1 is always the 11th of the following month, which makes July 11, 2025 the cut-off date for sales made in June 2025.

What is GSTR-1?

Form GSTR-1 is the monthly or quarterly statement of outward supplies.
It reports details of:

Sales of goods or services (outward supplies)
Debit notes, credit notes, or amendments to previous sales
Tax liability based on outward transactions

The details furnished in GSTR-1 are auto-populated in the recipient’s GSTR-2A and GSTR-2B, which allows them to claim Input Tax Credit (ITC).

Why Filing GSTR-1 on Time Matters

Filing GSTR-1 on time is more than just a legal formality—it affects your entire business ecosystem:

1️⃣ Blocking of E-Way Bills:
If you miss filing GSTR-1 for two consecutive tax periods, your ability to generate E-Way Bills will be restricted. This directly impacts your ability to move goods.

2️⃣ Customers Lose ITC:
If you don’t file on time, your customers won’t see your invoices in their GSTR-2B. This can delay or block their Input Tax Credit (ITC)—harming your business relationships.

3️⃣ Non-Compliance Alerts:
The GSTN portal shows compliance alerts for pending GSTR-1 filings, which can affect your GST rating and increase the risk of scrutiny.

4️⃣ Late Fees & Penalties:
Late filing attracts a late fee of ₹50 per day (₹25 CGST + ₹25 SGST) and can even lead to additional interest and penalties.

What is the QRMP Scheme?

For those unfamiliar, the Quarterly Return, Monthly Payment (QRMP) Scheme under GST is designed to ease compliance for small taxpayers.

🔹 Available to taxpayers with an annual turnover up to ₹5 crore.
🔹 Allows filing of GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B quarterly, but taxes are paid monthly.
🔹 For QRMP taxpayers, the GSTR-1 for the April-June 2025 quarter is due by July 13, 2025.

Key Differences Between QRMP and Monthly Filers:

What Happens if You Miss Today’s Deadline?

If you fail to file GSTR-1 for June 2025 by July 11, 2025:

You may face financial penalties.
