What is GST Filing Status?

GST filing status tells you whether your GST returns — like GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, or GSTR-9 — have been successfully submitted on the GST portal for a particular tax period. Every registered taxpayer must file returns on time to stay compliant and avoid penalties.

This free tool lets you check your GST return filing status instantly using just your GSTIN number and financial year. No account, no login, no fees.

That's it. No OTP, no registration needed.

What Details Does the GST Filing Status Show?

When you check your GSTIN filing status, you'll see:

  • Return Type – GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, GSTR-9, GSTR-9C, etc.
  • Filing Period – Month/Quarter for which the return applies
  • Status – Filed / Not Filed / Submitted
  • Date of Filing – When the return was submitted
  • Late Fee Liability – If return was filed after due date

GST Return Types and Their Due Dates (2025-26)

Return Form Who Files It Frequency Due Date
GSTR-1 Regular taxpayers Monthly / Quarterly 11th of next month / 13th of next quarter
GSTR-3B Regular taxpayers Monthly 20th of next month
GSTR-9 All regular taxpayers Annual 31st December
GSTR-9C Taxpayers with turnover > ₹5 Cr Annual 31st December
CMP-08 Composition dealers Quarterly 18th of month after quarter

What Happens If GST Return is Not Filed?

Missing GST return due dates has serious consequences:

  • Late fee: ₹50 per day (₹25 CGST + ₹25 SGST) for regular returns. Reduced to ₹20/day for nil returns.
  • Interest: 18% per annum on unpaid tax amount
  • Input Tax Credit (ITC) block: Your buyers cannot claim ITC if your GSTR-1 is not filed
  • GST notice: GSTN can issue SCN (Show Cause Notice) for non-compliance
  • Cancellation risk: Repeated non-filing can lead to GST registration cancellation

Why Check Your GST Filing Status Regularly?

Many business owners assume their CA or accountant has filed returns — but it's always smart to verify yourself. Common reasons to check:

  • Confirm returns are filed before due date
  • Avoid penalty for missed filings
  • Reconcile with GSTR-2B auto-drafted data
  • Required during GST audit or scrutiny
  • Needed while applying for bank loans or government tenders
  • To verify before filing annual return GSTR-9

GST filing status is the current state of a GST return on the portal for a given GSTIN and period. It tells you whether the return is pending (To Be Filed), partially done (Submitted But Not Filed), fully filed with correct payment (Filed – Valid), or filed with a payment issue (Filed – Invalid).

It means the return due date has passed but the taxpayer has not filed the return yet. Filing should be done immediately to stop late fees from accumulating.

"Submitted But Not Filed" means the data was entered and the Submit button was clicked, but the final filing step - which requires DSC or OTP - was not completed. No ARN is generated at this stage. "Filed -Valid" means the entire process was completed, payment was made, and an ARN was generated as proof.

It means the return was filed but the tax payment was short-paid or not made at all. Log in to gst.gov.in, go to your Electronic Liability Register, pay the outstanding amount, and the status will update to Filed – Valid within 24 hours.

Yes. Enter any GSTIN in the tool at the top of this page and select the financial year. No login, no registration, no CAPTCHA needed.

Your GSTIN is on your GST Registration Certificate, on the top-right corner of your GST portal dashboard after login, and on any tax invoice issued by your business.

Copy the 15-digit GSTIN from any invoice your supplier has given you, paste it into the tool above, select the relevant financial year, and click Check Status. The GSTR-1 column shows whether they have filed for each period.

Your GSTIN can be suspended. A suspended GSTIN means you cannot generate e-way bills, and your buyers cannot verify your active compliance. Continued non-filing after suspension can lead to GST registration cancellation.

₹50 per day for returns with tax liability (₹25 CGST + ₹25 SGST). ₹20 per day for nil returns. Maximum cap is ₹10,000 per return. Interest at 18% per year also applies on any unpaid tax from the due date.

For monthly filers: GSTR-1 is due on the 11th of the following month and GSTR-3B is due on the 20th. For QRMP scheme filers: GSTR-1 is due on the 13th of the month after the quarter, and GSTR-3B is due on the 22nd or 24th depending on the state.

Yes. When a GST registration is cancelled, the taxpayer must file GSTR-10 the Final Return within 3 months of the cancellation order. The tool shows GSTR-10 status for cancelled GSTINs. Missing this return attracts its own late fees.

Yes. Every registered taxpayer must file returns for every period, even if there were no sales or purchases. These are called Nil Returns. If you skip a nil return, it still shows as "To Be Filed" and late fees apply.

QRMP (Quarterly Return Monthly Payment) is a scheme for businesses with annual turnover up to ₹5 crore. Under QRMP, GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B are filed quarterly instead of monthly. However, tax payment is still made monthly through a challan. The filing status will show quarterly returns in the tool for QRMP-registered GSTINs.
