Frequently asked questions

What due dates does the calendar cover?

Monthly GST returns (GSTR-1 on the 11th, GSTR-3B on the 20th) and the QRMP quarterly returns, TDS/TCS deposits (7th) and quarterly TDS statements, advance-tax instalments (15 Jun/Sep/Dec/Mar), PF/ESI (15th), and the annual GSTR-9/9C and income-tax filings.

Which financial year does it show?

Pick any recent FY (April–March). The calendar shows the monthly obligations for that year plus the annual filings of the previous year that fall due during it (such as the ITR and GSTR-9).

Are these dates guaranteed?

They are the standard statutory dates. A date falling on a holiday may shift, and the government occasionally notifies extensions — always confirm on the GST or income-tax portal before filing.
