Compliance FAQ
Common questions.
What if a due date falls on a Sunday or holiday?
Per General Clauses Act, when a statutory due date is a holiday, the next working day becomes the deadline. CBIC/CBDT also issue specific extensions via notification when warranted (year-end congestion, technical issues, force majeure).
I am on QRMP. What changes?
Quarterly Return Monthly Payment (QRMP) is for taxpayers with aggregate turnover up to ₹5 Cr. Monthly tax payment via PMT-06 (25th of next month). Quarterly GSTR-1 (13th of month following quarter) and GSTR-3B (22nd or 24th depending on state). Optional IFF (Invoice Furnishing Facility) for B2B invoices in months 1 and 2.
Are state-specific PT dates different?
Yes. The 20th-of-month is the most common (Maharashtra, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu) but other states have different dates: Gujarat 30th, Madhya Pradesh 10th, etc. Many states require monthly payments above a threshold and quarterly otherwise.
What about ROC filings beyond AOC-4 and MGT-7?
DPT-3 (return of deposits) by 30 June. BEN-2 (significant beneficial ownership) within 30 days of filing BEN-1. INC-22 (registered office) when the address changes. ADT-1 (auditor appointment) within 15 days of the AGM. The calendar focuses on annual and recurring filings; situational filings are tracked as they arise.
How do I avoid missing deadlines for hundreds of clients (CA firms)?
Run a multi-client compliance dashboard. OneFinOps for CA & CS firms gives you a firm-wide view of every client's filings, owners, statuses and overdue items in one place. Each client gets their own books and audit trail; the firm sees the rollup.
