Non-furnishing of FORM GSTR-1 is liable to late fee and penalty as per the provisions of the GST law. In order to encourage taxpayers to furnish FORM GSTR-1, a one-time scheme to waive off late fee payable for the delayed furnishing of FORM GSTR-1 for the period from July 2017 to September 2018 till 31.10.2018 has been launched.”.
