In continuation to ease of compliance by the government in recent past, the finance ministry rolls out the facility which will allow taxpayers in filing of NIL GST monthly return in FORM GSTR-3B through SMS with Press Release dated 8^Th June.This is again a major change which will benefit approx. 22 lacs traders to file their NIL return via SMS.

Earlier, even for those who had nil liability under GST to report, they had to make the filings every month by logging into the GST portal—a website that had led to taxpayers over the years after finding it difficult to file returns. Now, such facility can be availed by a simple SMS.

Steps to be followed are:

STEP-1: Initiate the filing by sending an SMS to 14409 from the registered mobile number as NIL<space>3B<space>GSTIN number<space>Tax period in MMYYYY.
