The reason behind introducing this act was to curb all the various taxes under different goods and services and follow a single act provision known as the \u2018One Nation, One Tax\u2019 regime. This gave rise to the <a href=\"https:\/\/mybillbook.in\/s\/gst-goods-and-services-tax\/gst-act\/\">GST act<\/a> and the various tax slabs under it.<\/p>\n<p>Along with the different tax slabs introduced, the GST law, 2017 has also mentioned some clearly define offences and penalties levied in each scenario. These scenarios can range from anywhere between late payment of taxes, not registering on the GST Portal, incorrect invoicing and much more. We\u2019re going to talk about these offences and penalties in detail in the blog to follow.<\/p>\n<p>Suppose you\u2019re a business owner registered on the GST Portal, a Chartered Accountant, Tax Professional, whatever may be the job title. In that case, it is imperative to know about these offences and penalties in details as lack of information could cost the firm high charges and lead to heavy consequences.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<div class='ai-viewports ai-viewport-1 ai-insert-15-47688581' style='margin: 8px 0px; clear: both; padding-left: 325px;' data-insertion-position='prepend' data-selector='.ai-insert-15-47688581' data-insertion-no-dbg data-code='PGRpdiBjbGFzcz0nY29kZS1ibG9jayBjb2RlLWJsb2NrLTE1JyBzdHlsZT0nbWFyZ2luOiA4cHggMHB4OyBjbGVhcjogYm90aDsgcGFkZGluZy1sZWZ0OiAzMjVweDsnPgo8YSBocmVmPSJodHRwczovL215YmlsbGJvb2suaW4vY3JlYXRlLWFjY291bnQvIj4gPGltZyBzcmM9Imh0dHA6Ly9teWJpbGxib29rLmluL3Mvd3AtY29udGVudC91cGxvYWRzLzIwMjMvMDYvR2VuZXJhdGUtR1NULVJlcG9ydHMtTm93LnBuZyIgYWx0PSJnZW5lcmF0ZSBnc3QgcmVwb3J0cyI+IDwvYT4KPC9kaXY+Cg==' data-block='15'><\/div>\n<script>\n  ai_run_731156759735 = function(){ai_insert_viewport_code ('ai-insert-15-47688581');};\n  if (document.readyState === 'complete' || (document.readyState !== 'loading' && !document.documentElement.doScroll)) ai_run_731156759735 (); else document.addEventListener ('DOMContentLoaded', ai_run_731156759735);\n<\/script>\n<br \/>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-offences-under-gst\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Offences_Under_GST\"><\/span>Offences Under GST<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Offences Under Registration<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-regular\">\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Offences\u00a0<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Example\u00a0<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Not registering the business even though it fulfills all requirements for registration or it is required by law<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>XYZ Business Enterprise is conducting business over INR 20 lakhs annually.

In regards to how big the offences are, they could be categorised as either minor offences or major offences. Based on the level of the offence, the penalties and fines charged on the same can be different.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Minor Offense:<\/strong>\u00a0An offence is considered to be a minor offence or breach when there is some documentation error, misinformation mentioned on the website, a change in invoice amount etc. These are minor offences that can be corrected easily with just a few changes. Since they\u2019re minor changes the GST governing body does not impose very heavy penalties. The penalty in such situations is usually below INR 5000. Sometimes, if the case is an extremely minor case, a warning is issued without evening charging a monetary fine.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Major Offense:\u00a0<\/strong>Offenses that are larger in the category and that heavier implications are included in Major Offenses. Examples here include such as evasion of taxes, obstruction of an officer, non-compliance with rules and regulations. These offences can lead to heavier penalties and fines and sometimes even imprisonment. The penalty applied here is usually more than INR 5000 and is in regards to the tax amount that may be involved in the situation of the offence.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-list-of-penalties-under-gst\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"List_of_penalties_under_GST\"><\/span>List of penalties under GST<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-regular\">\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Nature of Penalty\u00a0<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Amount of Fine or Penalty Imposed\u00a0<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Incorrect misinformation provided on the Invoice that is issued<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>INR 25,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Delayed in filing GST Returns\u00a0<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>INR 200 per day divided as INR 100 to CGST and INR 100 to IGST with a total penalty amount not exceeding INR 5000.
