From January onwards, small taxpayers are required to file only 8 returns that mean four GSTR-3B and four GSTR-1 returns in a year. The quarterly filing of the return with the monthly payment scheme will impact 9.4 million taxpayers, which is about 92% of the total tax base of GST[1].

As per sources, the quarterly filing of return with monthly payment scheme has the optional feature of invoicing filing facility to mitigate business related hardships for small and medium taxpayers.
Under the Invoicing filing facility, the small taxpayers who choose to be quarterly return filers under the scheme would be able to upload and file invoices in the first and the second month of the quarter for which there is demand from the recipients.

The taxpayers are not required to upload and file all invoices for the month. They can upload and file invoices that are needed to be filed in the Invoicing Filing Facility according to the recipients demand.
The remaining invoices of first, as well as second months, shall be uploaded in quarterly GSTR-1 return. The filing facility will be available up to a cut off date and credit shall flow to the recipient after cut off date on filing Invoicing Filing Facility.
