Staying compliant with GST return filing is crucial for every taxpayer to avoid penalties and ensure smooth business operations. Two important returns due this month are GSTR-7 and GSTR-8, both of which have a due date of 10th October 2025.

🧾 What is GSTR-7?

The following entities are required to file GSTR-7:

  • Departments or establishments of the Central or State Government.

  • Local authorities.

  • Governmental agencies.

  • Other notified entities making payments to suppliers for taxable goods or services.

Why Is It Important?

Filing GSTR-7 ensures that:

  • The supplier receives the TDS credit in their electronic cash ledger.

  • The deductor remains compliant and avoids penalties or late fees.

💼 What is GSTR-8?

GSTR-8 is to be filed by e-commerce operators who collect Tax Collected at Source (TCS) under GST.

  • The TCS collected on behalf of sellers.

  • The amount of TCS paid to the government.

Who Should File GSTR-8?

All registered e-commerce operators under Section 52 of the CGST Act must file GSTR-8.

Why Is It Important?

  • Helps suppliers claim TCS credit in their electronic cash ledger.

  • Ensures transparency between e-commerce operators, suppliers, and the government.

  • Prevents interest or late fees for delayed filing.

📅 Key Due Date

Both GSTR-7 and GSTR-8 for the month of September 2025 must be filed on or before 10th October 2025.

  • Late fees: ₹100 per day under CGST and ₹100 per day under SGST (maximum ₹5,000).

  • Interest: 18% per annum on the outstanding tax amount.

  • Loss of compliance rating and possible scrutiny by the GST department.
