It is a prerequisite for all businesses to stay compliant. It is an indirect tax levied by the government on businesses that deal with the supply of goods and services. It replaces a lot of other indirect taxes like the VAT(value added tax), service tax, purchase tax, excise duty, and more.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Here\u2019s how you can calculate your GST payment<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li>Calculate your total GST payable<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Determine the eligible ITC (Input Tax Credit)\u00a0<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Deduct the ITC from the outward tax liability<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>This will give you the total GST amount. To this, you must add any interest\/late fees, if any, and subtract TDS\/TCS charges levied on your payment.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>You will arrive at the exact amount of GST payment if you follow this procedure.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Types of GST Taxpayers<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>On the basis of turnover and correlation, there are 3 categories of GST taxpayers:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Regular Taxpayers<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Regular taxpayers are those who pay taxes if their annual turnover surpasses Rs. 1.5 crores (Rs.75 lakhs for the North Eastern states and Himachal Pradesh). They are obliged to file monthly returns based on the nature of their business.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Composite Taxpayers<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Taxpayers or businesses that have an annual turnover of Rs.1.5 crores or below (Rs.75 lakhs for the North Eastern states and Himachal Pradesh) are required to file monthly returns. However, they need to fill only a single form and enjoy a lower tax rate.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Exempted taxpayers<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>A taxpayer or businessperson is exempted from paying or collecting tax on the supply of their goods or services if their yearly turnover is Rs. 40,000 or less (Rs.10 lakhs for North Easteren and Hilly States).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Pay GST Online: Step by Step<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Here\u2019s a step-by-step guide on how to make your GST filing online:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Step 1:<\/strong> Go to the GST payment portal: <a href=\"https:\/\/payment.gst.gov.in\/payment\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/payment.gst.gov.in\/payment\/<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Step 2:<\/strong> You can find the login option on the GST portal\u2019s dashboard itself. If not, you can go to the \u2018Services\u2019 tab on the homepage. Go to Payments &gt; Create Challan.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Step 3:<\/strong> Once you are logged in, you will have to enter different amounts under different heads like CGST, SGST, CESS, etc.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>If you are unsure about the amounts or want to make changes before generating the challan, make sure you keep saving the details as you enter them. You can find the \u2018Save\u2019 button next to \u2018<strong>Generate Challan<\/strong>\u2019 on the right bottom.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Step 4<\/strong>: After you are done entering all the information, it\u2019s time to make the payment. Choose your convenient mode of payment from the three options available on the site. The options are:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li>E-payment (net banking, credit\/debit card)<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Over-the-counter (in your nearest bank)<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>RTGS\/ NEFT<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Step 5<\/strong>: Once you choose your payment option, you would have to re-enter your GSTIN\/Other ID for the challan generation.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Step 6<\/strong>: When everything is done, click the \u201cGenerate Challan\u201d option. You will shortly receive a confirmation message. You can then go ahead and download your challan.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>That\u2019s it! You are done! Wasn\u2019t that pretty smooth and quick?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When should you make the payment?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Every registered regular taxpayer is required by laws to pay GST on or before the 20th of each month. Make all payments on time to avoid penalties and interest fees. If you make a late payment or pay less than your dues, you will be charged 18% interest.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>As a business owner and a taxpayer, it is important for you to be aware of the different types, methods and rules of GST payments. Filing for the Goods &amp; Services Tax is a mandatory requirement that is expected from every business and taxpayer in the country.
