The Goods and Services Tax (GST) regime is set to undergo a major overhaul. GSTN has made an important announcement under which there will be radical changes in the rules of return filing from the year 2025. The biggest impact of this new system is likely to be on small and medium traders. The most important rule under the GST rule change is that taxpayers will now have to adhere to a certain time limit for filing returns. The main objective of the GST rule changes is to make the tax system more transparent and efficient.
According to the new guidelines issued by the GSTN, traders will have to submit their monthly and annual returns within three years from the due date. The rule will apply to all GST sales returns, liability payments, annual returns, and TDS/TTCS returns.
The importance of digital compliance
Experts believe that this new rule will motivate businesses to manage their financial records better. To comply with the GST return filing timeline, merchants will have to digitize their financial processes and ensure timely compliance. Tax experts say, “With this new rule, businesses will have to make a habit of updating their records regularly.”
Manual traders will be affected
Many experts believe that this move will help in keeping the Indian tax system on par with global standards. Traders are being advised to check their old records and file returns, if any, at the earliest. The impact of this new system will be particularly on those traders who still keep their accounts manually. They will now have to migrate to digital platforms and update their records regularly. Tax experts suggest that businessmen start preparing for this change right away.
