All that the user has to do is download ClearTax GST Desktop App Once installed, ClearTax GST Desktop App will help users with the seamless filing of GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B in minimal steps. Thus, a taxpayer can avoid all unnecessary interactions with any other portal, as everything is available on the ClearTax GST software including submission of returns. Users can file GSTR-1 with minimal manual effort and directly on ClearTax supported by both Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) or Electronic Verification Code (EVC). It automates the entire process and makes it 3 times faster and saves ample time. The ‘Nil return filing’ feature comes with important validations and a cautionary window too to allow users to reconsider their filing of GST returns with no data. Hence, it will stop users from erroneously submitting a Nil return which otherwise was not one.

All taxpayers having GST registration are required to file GSTR-1 return either monthly or quarterly, as the case may be irrespective of business turnover or profitability during that period. The GSTR-1 return contains details of all outward supplies made during the tax period. In case of no outward supplies, a dealer still has to file a nil GSTR 1. Once the GSTR 1 is filed, the user has to file nil GSTR-3B in case of no outward supplies, no purchases, and no tax liability. If a nil return in GSTR-1 or GSTR-3B is not filed, a penalty of Rs.20 per day (for GSTR-1) and Rs. 20 per day (for GSTR-3B) is leviable until the return filing is complete. Hence, all taxpayers having GST registration must submit Nil GST return in case of no transactions before the deadline.
