Under the GST Act, every normal taxable person has to file GSTR-1 with a detail of the outward supply of goods or services. It will also include details of debit or credit note related to the outward supply of goods or services of the previous month. This form will also include details of the export and exempted supply of goods and services.
The GST Council in its recent meeting had shared a revised format for Monthly returns and GST Rates of various goods and services. In this article, we will discuss the requirement for GSTR-1 and what we need to know about it.
Every person who has done their GST Registration should file this return, except a person registered under composition scheme, Non-resident taxpayers, E-commerce aggregator or Marketplace and Foreign diplomats. Input Service Distributors, taxpayers liable to collect TDS and taxpayers liable to deduct TDS are also exempted from filing this return.

The GST return has to be filed by the normal taxable person. It has a total of 13 to the task to be performed and basic required details in it are pre-filled. Hence, we need to understand certain terms under GST Return.
