GST Services: Compliance, Advisory, and Notice Representation
Goods and Services Tax is a monthly obligation for most businesses in India. Missed deadlines attract interest and late fees. Mismatches in GSTR-2B reconciliation attract notices. Incorrect ITC claims are reversed with demand and penalty. For a business owner whose core competence is manufacturing, trading, or services rather than tax law, managing all of this accurately and on time is a genuine operational problem.
The firm handles GST compliance and advisory for businesses in CSN (Aurangabad), across Maharashtra, and for clients in other states and countries through remote engagement. Work covers registration through to notice resolution.
GST Registration
Threshold-based registration, voluntary registration, composition scheme registration, and registration for non-resident taxable persons, handled with correct classification of business activity, HSN/SAC mapping, and proper documentation from the start. Incorrect classification at registration creates problems that follow a business for years.
GST Returns: GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, GSTR-9, GSTR-9C
Monthly and quarterly return preparation and filing across GSTR-1 (outward supplies), GSTR-3B (summary return and tax payment), GSTR-9 (annual return), and GSTR-9C (reconciliation statement). The central task is GSTR-2B reconciliation, which means matching your purchase register against what your vendors have filed. Unmatched ITC is the most common trigger for GST notices.
Input Tax Credit Management
ITC eligibility under Section 17(5) is a frequent source of errors. Blocked credits on motor vehicles, employee-related expenses, and certain construction activities are routinely claimed in error. The firm reviews ITC claims for eligibility, reconciles GSTR-2B monthly, and keeps the credit register clean before returns are filed.
GST Notices and Assessments
Show cause notices, demand orders, mismatched ITC notices, scrutiny notices, and DRC-01 demands are responded to with a written reply citing the correct legal provisions and factual position. Many notices that appear threatening are resolvable at the first stage with a proper response.
GST Audit under Section 35(5)
For businesses with turnover above Rs. 2 crore in a financial year, GSTR-9C requires a reconciliation statement certified by a CA. The firm conducts GST audits and prepares GSTR-9C, along with support for departmental audits initiated by the GST department.
E-Invoicing and E-Way Bill Compliance
Businesses above the applicable aggregate turnover threshold must generate e-invoices through the IRP. The firm assists with e-invoicing system setup, IRN generation troubleshooting, and e-way bill compliance for goods movement.
Sector-Specific GST Advisory
GST rates and compliance requirements differ significantly across sectors. Manufacturing businesses in CSN (Aurangabad) dealing with job work, composite supply, and mixed supply have specific compliance requirements. Export-linked businesses need to manage LUT filing, refund claims, and zero-rated supply documentation.
