Due Date of GSTR-3B Comes Very Quickly Every Month

Note that while filing GSTR-3B, statewise revenue bifurcation is to be filed only in case of Unregistered Dealer Outward Supplies.
Meanwhile the tax payers can continue to pay GST every month as per timelines prescribed, delay in which always attracts Interest/ Penalties.
