GST जुर्माना और ब्याज दायित्व (GST Penalties & Interest Liability)
Definition
GST penalties arise from: (1) Late GSTR-3B filing (₹100/day, capped ₹10,000); (2) ITC reversal on rejected invoices (10% of reversed tax); (3) Non-submission of CA certificate for deemed export refunds (blocks entire refund + interest at 24%); (4) Discrepancies in RFD-01 vs. shipping bills (RFD-08 rejection = penalty interest accrual). Interest accrues at 24% p.a. on denied/held refunds.
Key Findings
- Financial Impact: ₹10-30 lakh annually: Late filing penalties (₹50,000-100,000/year), ITC reversal penalties (₹5-15 lakh/year on 5-10 rejected batches), interest accrual on held refunds (₹5-10 lakh/year).
- Frequency: Quarterly (4 filing cycles); penalties triggered on 10-15% of refunds
- Root Cause: Manual deadline tracking; CA availability bottlenecks; document submission delays; GSTR-2B reconciliation failures triggering ITC reversals.
