govt to provide sms filing of nil statement from 1st july 2020

In a significant move towards GST taxpayers' assistance, the Government has chosen to give the facility of SMS filing of NIL statement of FORM GSTR-1 from first week of July 2020.

The Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) said that the recording of NIL statement in FORM GSTR-1 likewise through SMS would significantly improve simplicity of GST consistence for more than 12 lakh enlisted citizens. At present, these taxpayers need to sign into their account on the common portal and then file their statement of outward supplies in FORM GSTR-1 every month or each quarter.

GST taxpayers with NIL outward supplies would not be required to sign on to the GST Portal and would have the option to file their NIL explanation in FORM GSTR-1 through only a SMS. The status confirmation of the filed documentation or return application can be followed by them on the GST Portal by signing in to their GSTIN account and navigating to Services>Returns>Track Return Status.

It might be noticed that the facility to file NIL month to month GSTR-3B return through SMS has just been made accessible since 8th June 2020. taxpayers who have NIL FORM GSTR-3B return to file may avail the SMS facility. To start the SMS facility, the taxpayers who wish to document Nil statement in their FORM GSTR-1 are to send SMS to 14409 as NILR1GSTIN numberTax period (in MMYYYY). For instance: NIL R1 09XXXXXXXXXXXZC 042020 (for month to month return of April 2020) or NIL R1 09XXXXXXXXXXXZC 062020 (for quarterly return of April-June 2020).

After this, they will get a six-digit code with validity up to 30 minutes and can confirm their Nil Statement filing by sending: CNFR1 CODE to 14409. On successful code validation, return will be filed and taxpayers will be receiving an Acknowledgement number through SMS.
