Also, based on the turnover of the taxpayer, now on GST return filing due date shall be staggered such as to not put pressure on the information technology framework of GST i.e. GSTN. In respect of taxpayers whose turnover exceeds Rs. 5 crore, the return filing date shall be 20th of the subsequent month (such taxpayers are prescribed to file return on a monthly basis).
In the GST return filing process i.e. though same for both monthly and quarterly returns continuous uploading in respect of invoices is needed to be done by suppliers. The invoices will then be liabilities for suppliers and for the recipient will be input tax credit.

The draft document said, "This information shall be required to be filled in the annual return. Small taxpayers who would like to facility of missing and pending invoice may file monthly return".
