Jigar Malavaniya & Associates · Ahmedabad
Jigar Malavaniya & Associates provides GST return filing in Ahmedabad and consulting support for registration, invoices, ITC reconciliation and notices. Discuss your business records with a GST consultant in Ahmedabad and get a clear scope and quotation.
A GST consultant helps you understand the rules that apply to your business and checks how they affect your records and filings. The work may include registration, invoice review, return preparation, input tax credit checks and support with notices. The services you need depend on your business activity, registration category and the issue being reviewed.
We review your business activity and help identify the registration requirements that apply. Our team assists with the application, supporting documents and permitted changes to registration details. For an existing GSTIN, we review the relevant records before advising on an amendment, cancellation or restoration matter.
A change in products, customers or selling locations can raise GST questions. We review goods and service classification using HSN or SAC codes, invoice details, place of supply and reverse charge where relevant. Share the transaction documents so the advice reflects your actual business activity.
We compare purchase records with GST statements and review the conditions for claiming credit. Missing supplier invoices, blocked credit and incorrect invoice details need separate checks. Our team identifies differences and explains the records or supplier follow-up needed before the next filing.
A GST notice needs a reply supported by records and filed within the time allowed. We review the notice, returns, invoices and payment evidence before preparing the response. For a departmental audit or disputed order, the scope of documentation and professional representation is agreed separately. Read our GST notice reply guide or see the wider GST consultancy, appeal and dispute services.
We help review refund eligibility and prepare the records relevant to the refund category. Export matters may need a check of invoices, returns, LUT requirements and supporting documents. A refund depends on the applicable rules, complete evidence and the department’s processing; an application does not guarantee approval.
For ongoing compliance, consulting and filing can be covered in one engagement. A registration application, annual return, refund claim or notice reply may require a separate scope and quotation. Discuss what is included before appointing the team.
A GST filing service should check the records behind your return. We review sales, purchase invoices, credit notes, tax payments and eligible input tax credit before preparing the applicable forms. Differences that need your attention are identified during the review.
GSTR-1 reports outward supplies. We help organize invoice details, customer GSTINs, taxable values, tax amounts, credit and debit notes, and applicable export information. Sales records are checked against the figures being reported.
GSTR-3B is a summary return used to declare GST liability and discharge tax. Our filing support includes reviewing outward supply figures, reverse charge transactions where applicable, eligible ITC, reversals and the amount payable through the electronic cash ledger.
We compare the purchase register with GSTR-2B to identify missing invoices, duplicate entries and differences in tax amounts. An invoice appearing in GSTR-2B still needs to meet the legal conditions for ITC. We also review relevant Invoice Management System records where applicable.
Eligible regular taxpayers may opt for the Quarterly Return Monthly Payment scheme. We help review QRMP eligibility, quarterly GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B obligations, monthly tax deposits and use of the optional Invoice Furnishing Facility. Composition taxpayers have separate CMP-08 and annual GSTR-4 requirements.
We assist with GSTR-9 and GSTR-9C preparation where applicable, based on the financial year, turnover and relevant exemptions. If returns are pending, we first review the affected periods, GSTIN status, records and portal restrictions before planning the filing work.
The applicable forms depend on your registration category and filing preference. A regular taxpayer, a composition taxpayer and an e-commerce operator do not have the same obligations.

| Form or facility | Purpose | Typical application |
|---|---|---|
| GSTR-1 | Outward supply details | Monthly or quarterly filing by applicable regular taxpayers |
| GSTR-3B | Summary GST liability, ITC and tax payment | Monthly filing or quarterly filing under QRMP |
| IFF | Optional reporting of eligible B2B documents | First two months of a quarter for QRMP taxpayers |
| CMP-08 | Statement and payment of self-assessed tax | Quarterly compliance for composition taxpayers |
| GSTR-4 | Annual composition return | Businesses under composition during the relevant financial year |
| GSTR-9 | Annual GST return | Eligible taxpayers after checking financial-year-specific exemptions |
| GSTR-9C | Self-certified reconciliation statement | Applicable taxpayers whose aggregate turnover exceeds ₹5 crore |
GSTR-2B is a system-generated statement used during reconciliation. It is not a return that your business files. Special categories, including GST TDS deductors and TCS-collecting operators, require a separate review.
Keeping records ready helps us check your return and follow up on missing information before the deadline. The exact checklist depends on the tax period and your transactions.
Bank statements and accounting reports may also be needed to explain differences. We will explain the authorized filing arrangement during onboarding; portal access and signatory verification should be handled through an agreed process.
Processing time depends on the completeness of your records, the number of GSTINs, unresolved differences and GST Portal availability. Contact us before the due date so there is time to review the information.
The table below shows normal deadlines. Government notifications may extend a deadline for a particular period or class of taxpayer. Check the GST Portal and current notification before filing.

Our professional fees are quoted after reviewing your filing requirement. Invoice volume, the number of GSTINs, filing frequency, reconciliation work and pending periods affect the scope. Annual returns and notice-related work may need a separate quotation.
Ask for a quotation that states the forms covered, tax period, invoice-volume assumptions, reconciliation scope and any additional work. Professional fees are separate from GST payable to the government and any applicable interest or late fees.

A consultation fee depends on the question, records to be reviewed and work required. Ask whether the quotation includes only advice or also application preparation, return filing, reconciliation or a notice reply. For monthly support, confirm the invoice-volume limit, reporting schedule and treatment of additional work.
A purchase register and GSTR-2B may show different figures because of supplier reporting, timing, incorrect GSTINs, amendments or duplicate records. The difference needs an invoice-level review before deciding what credit can be claimed.
Illustrative example: a purchase register records ₹18,000 in GST, while matching invoices in GSTR-2B show ₹14,400. The ₹3,600 difference needs investigation. It should not automatically be claimed or treated as permanently lost. The reason, supporting documents and current ITC conditions determine the next step.
We also check differences between outward supply records, GSTR-1 or GSTR-1A and GSTR-3B. Read our GSTR-2B and GSTR-3B mismatch guide for more information.
Delayed filing may attract late fees and interest, depending on the form, tax period, liability and applicable relief. A fixed amount does not apply to every case. We review the filing history and records before calculating the relevant amount.
If an outward supply is missed or incorrectly reported, GSTR-1A may allow a same-period correction within its permitted filing window before GSTR-3B is filed. A filed GSTR-3B cannot simply be revised; corrections need to follow the applicable legal and portal process.

A GST consultant can help with registration, amendments, invoice review, return filing, ITC reconciliation, tax questions and notices. Jigar Malavaniya & Associates reviews your business activity and records to agree the services needed for your engagement.
GST consulting reviews how GST rules apply to a transaction or business issue. Return filing reports the required figures for a tax period. A business may need both when an invoice, credit claim or tax treatment needs review before the return is filed.
Yes. Share your GST question and supporting documents for a separate consultation. The team can review the requirement and explain the scope and fee. Monthly filing is agreed separately if you need ongoing support.
GST-registered taxpayers must meet the filing obligations applicable to their registration category. Regular and composition taxpayers use different forms. The filing frequency also depends on the taxpayer's applicable scheme and preference.
Applicable return obligations generally continue even without sales. However, purchases, reverse charge, ITC adjustments, exempt supplies or outstanding liabilities may mean the return does not qualify for NIL filing. Check the records first.
GSTR-1 reports outward supply details. GSTR-3B reports summary tax liability, eligible ITC and tax payment. The figures should be reconciled before filing.
Eligible regular taxpayers with aggregate annual turnover up to ₹5 crore may opt for QRMP, subject to the scheme's conditions. GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B are filed quarterly, while tax payment obligations continue for the relevant months.
For Gujarat GSTINs under QRMP, the normal deadline is the 22nd of the month following the quarter. Check whether a notification extends the date for your tax period.
No. GSTR-2B is a system-generated statement used during ITC reconciliation. Your business should check purchase invoices, the statement and applicable credit conditions before preparing GSTR-3B.
No. The invoice must also satisfy the legal conditions for credit. Blocked credits, reversals, time limits and other restrictions may apply.
Start with your GSTIN, filing period, registration category, approximate sales and purchase invoice volume, and details of pending returns. The team can then explain the records needed for the filing engagement.
Yes. Share previous filed returns, available reconciliations, ledger balances and pending issue details. These records help us review the starting position before taking up the next filing period.
A filed GSTR-3B cannot simply be revised. The error, affected period and applicable correction procedure need to be reviewed before taking action.
GSTR-1A is an optional facility for adding or correcting eligible outward supply records for the same tax period. It becomes available after the later of the GSTR-1 due date or actual filing date, and must be filed before GSTR-3B for that period.
No. Applicability depends on the financial year, taxpayer category, turnover and relevant exemptions. GSTR-9C is a self-certified reconciliation statement for applicable taxpayers with aggregate turnover above ₹5 crore.
Invoice volume, GSTIN count, filing frequency, record quality, reconciliation work and pending periods affect the professional fee. Confirm whether annual returns or notice-related work are included.
A NIL return is appropriate only when its conditions are met. It should not be used to hide transactions or liabilities. Late-fee treatment depends on the return, period and applicable rules or relief.
Use the enquiry form or contact the Accounts Department. Share your GSTIN, filing period and invoice volume so we can discuss the records, scope and quotation.
