Monthly GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B dates

For many monthly filers, the 2026 calendar lists GSTR-1 on the 11th and GSTR-3B on the 20th. Each row is for the previous month. 11 October and 20 October 2026 have passed. The office is at 515 Trichy Road, Singanallur.

Quick answer

This page separates the monthly rows on the 2026 tax calendar. Preparing the returns stays on the GST filing page. Do not send the GST password in chat. Call +91 94454 38387.

The two dates

GSTR-1 on the 11th is the outward-supplies return for the previous month. GSTR-3B on the 20th is the summary return and the tax payment for that same month. The 11 November row is October’s GSTR-1. The 20 November row is October’s GSTR-3B. A notified extension, or a holiday, can move a date by a day or two. Confirm the period on the GST portal before it is filed.

A month with no outward supplies can still need a return. That check is on the nil return page. Future Tax checks the period before it is filed.

Who does not use these rows

A GSTIN on QRMP files quarterly, when aggregate turnover is within the limit in the notification for that year. Those rows are on the quarterly GST page. The portal shows whether the GSTIN is on QRMP. Future Tax confirms the limit before anyone opts in. The rupee limit is not copied onto this page.

Credit before GSTR-3B

GSTR-2B is usually available around the 14th. Confirm it for that period. Do not claim input-tax credit for an invoice that is absent from GSTR-2B. That check is on the GSTR-2B page. A difference between GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B is Form DRC-01B, on the DRC-01B page.

Before the month is filed

  1. Send the sales and purchase registers for the month.
  2. The desk confirms that the GSTIN is a monthly filer and which date is still open.
  3. You approve the draft. GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B are filed after that approval.
  4. The acknowledgement is shared after the portal accepts the return.

Monthly GST filing starts at ₹500 on the Coimbatore GST filing page. The quote is confirmed before filing. The first discussion is free. The length depends on the file.

Common questions

Have the October 2026 dates passed?

Yes. 11 October and 20 October 2026 have passed. The next rows are 11 November for GSTR-1 and 20 November for GSTR-3B, both for October. Confirm them on the GST portal. A holiday can move a date by a day or two.

Does a QRMP taxpayer use the 11th and the 20th?

No. QRMP uses the quarterly rows when turnover is within the limit in the notification for that year. The portal shows whether the GSTIN is on QRMP. A monthly filer uses the 11th and the 20th.

Is GSTR-2B filed on one of these dates?

No. GSTR-2B is usually available around the 14th. Do not claim credit for an invoice that is absent from it. That check stays on the GSTR-2B page.
