GSTR-9 & 9C Filing – Due Date 31st December 2025: What You Need to Know

If you are a registered taxpayer under GST with an annual turnover above ₹2 crore (for GSTR-9) or ₹5 crore (for GSTR-9C), an important compliance deadline is just around the corner — 31st December 2025 for the Financial Year 2024–25.

Missing this deadline can lead to unnecessary penalties and interest, so it’s crucial to understand the requirements and prepare in advance.

What are GSTR-9 & 9C?

1. GSTR-9 – Annual GST Return

• A consolidated summary of all GST activities for the year, including:
  • Outward supplies (sales)
  • Inward supplies (purchases)
  • Input tax credit (ITC) availed
  • Taxes paid
• Mandatory for all regular taxpayers above ₹2 crore turnover.

2. GSTR-9C – GST Audit & Reconciliation

• A reconciliation statement that compares your GST returns with audited financial statements.
• Must be certified by a Chartered Accountant (CA) or Cost & Management Accountant (CMA).
• Applicable for businesses with turnover exceeding ₹5 crore.

Why Should You File Early?

• Avoid Late Fees & Interest:
  Penalty of ₹200 per day (₹100 under CGST + ₹100 under SGST) for delay in filing GSTR-9, plus applicable interest on late tax payment.
• Spot & Fix Mismatches:
  Early preparation allows time to identify differences between GST data and financial records.
• Be Ready for Scrutiny:
  Well-prepared and accurate filings reduce the risk of notices and queries from the GST department.
