Frequently asked questions

What is a compliance calendar for Indian businesses?

A compliance calendar is a schedule of recurring regulatory filings, payments, and evidence tasks a business must track — GST returns, TDS deposits, income tax instalments, and annual ROC filings. The exact calendar depends on entity type, turnover, registrations, and state.

How often do GST filing dates change?

The statutory due dates are set by the CGST Act and Rules, but the GST Council periodically extends deadlines by notification — typically during natural disasters or system upgrades. Always verify via the GSTN portal or official circulars before relying on any calendar.

What happens if I miss a filing deadline?

Missing GST return deadlines attracts late fees (₹50/day for GSTR-3B, subject to caps) and interest at 18% p.a. on unpaid tax. TDS defaults attract 1–1.5% interest per month plus penalties. Company Law (ROC) defaults can flag director DINs. Penalties vary by filing type and delay length.

Is this calendar specific to my business?

The table shows common obligations for your entity type. Your actual calendar depends on turnover (which affects GSTR-1 frequency), GST scheme (monthly vs. quarterly QRMP), registrations held, and state. Use the link below to describe your specific situation and get an obligation list with citations.

How is ComplianceRadar different from a static compliance calendar?

Static calendars list every possible deadline for a category. ComplianceRadar reads your business description and returns only the filings that apply to you — with the exact statutory citation — so you're not cross-referencing generic lists against your own situation.
