Important GST Update: File Pending Returns Before They Expire Forever

 A new rule states that you cannot file old GST returns after three years from their original due date. This applies to major forms like GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, GSTR-9, and others.

Starting in October 2025, the GST portal will automatically lock you out from submitting any return that is more than three years overdue.

Act Now Before You Lose the Chance:

The table below shows the oldest returns you will be blocked from filing after November 1, 2025:

GST FormFor Periods Older Than
GSTR-1 (Monthly/Quarterly)September 2022
GSTR-3B (Monthly/Quarterly)September 2022
GSTR-4 (Composition Scheme)Financial Year 2021-22
GSTR-9/9C (Annual Return)Financial Year 2020-21

Do not delay. Check your records and file any pending returns immediately to avoid permanent lockout and potential penalties
