 5. OTHER RETURNS  
(i) First Return [Section 40] 
 When a person becomes liable to registration after his turnover crosses the 
threshold limit, he may apply for registration within 30 days of so becoming 
liable.  Thus, there might be a time lag between a person becoming liable to 
registration and grant of registration certificate.   
 During the intervening period, such person might have made the outward 
supplies, i.e. after becoming liable to registration but before grant of the 
certificate of registration.  
Now, in order to enable such registered person to declare the taxable supplies 
made by him for the period between the date on which he became liable to 
registration till the date on which registration has been granted so that ITC 
can be availed by the recipient on such supplies, firstly, the registered person 
may issue revised tax invoices against the invoices already issued during said 
period within 1 month from the date of issuance of certificate of registration 
[Section 31(3)(a) read with rule 53 of CGST Rules – Discussed in detail in 
Chapter-8: Tax Invoice, Credit and Debit Notes; E-Way Bill].  Further, section 
40 provides that registered person shall declare his outward supplies made 
during said period in the first return furnished by him after grant of 
registration. The format for this return is the same as that for regular return.

an approved GSTP to furnish information, on his behalf, to the Government.  The 
manner of approval of GSTPs, their eligibility conditions, duties and obligations, 
manner of removal and other conditions relevant for their functioning have been 
prescribed in the rules 83, 83A and 84 of the CGST Rules.

GSTP to enable him to work on behalf of his 
clients without asking for their user ID and 
passwords. They can do all the work on behalf of 
taxpayers as allowed under GST Law.  A taxpayer 
may choose a different GSTP by simply 
unselecting the previous one and then choosing 
a new GSTP on the GST portal.   
Standardized formats have been prescribed for making application for enrolment 
as GSTP, certificate of enrolment, show cause notice for disqualification, order of
