    Key takeaways
    • Monthly filers in Pune: GSTR-1 by the 10th, GSTR-3B by the 20th, GSTR-9 & 9C by 31 December.
    • Late filing invites ₹50/day late fee (₹20/day for nil returns) plus 18% p.a. interest on tax due.
    • ITC is locked to GSTR-2B — a missed vendor invoice from Pune means ITC is lost until the next month's 2B.
    • E-invoicing is mandatory for Pune taxpayers with turnover above ₹5 crore.
    • Taxpex files every return 3 days early, CA-signs the acknowledgement and defends notices on filed periods for free.

    When do I need reverse GST?+

    When a supplier gives you a GST-inclusive price and you need to break it into base + GST for invoicing or ITC reconciliation.

    via Reverse GST Calculator
    How is CAGR different from absolute return?+

    Absolute return ignores time; CAGR normalises the return to a per-year compounded rate — the standard measure for comparing multi-year returns.

    via CAGR Calculator
    Do I need GST to register?+

    GST is mandatory only if your turnover exceeds the GST threshold. Otherwise PAN is enough.

    via MSME / Udyam Registration
    Does this include processing fees or GST?+

    No. Processing fees, insurance, GST on fees and stamp duty are excluded and vary per lender. Add them separately to arrive at the true cost of the loan.
