The pilot for New Returns- Sahaj and Sugam, was to start from April 1, 2019 and the mandatory filing to start from July 2019.
In the previous GST council meeting, the principles and approach for return simplification had received a nod and a committee for finalising the return formats and process was formed. In the meeting today, the new return formats and process were approved.
The 27th GST council, in its meeting held today on 4 May 2018, has taken the key decision on simplifying the return filing process. The Council has given go-ahead for new filing process and it will be rolled out in 3 phases.
