The penalty for non-filing of the annual return grows daily until you file. Ignoring GSTR-9 invites both late fees and scrutiny.
Daily late fee
A per-day fee accrues under CGST and SGST until the annual return is filed.
Knock-on scrutiny
A missing annual return flags the GSTIN for departmental follow-up. This is central to penalty for non-filing annual return and how the rule plays out in practice.
Cure the default
