The three methods available in TallyPrime enable you to file your GSTR-1 in a convenient manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Generate JSON File Using TallyPrime and Upload on the Portal<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This method integrates seamlessly with your regular business workflow. Simply record your GST transactions in TallyPrime as usual and the GSTR-1 report will automatically reflect the details. You can then export the report as a JSON file and upload it directly to the GST portal. All your GST data from TallyPrime will be transferred smoothly to the unified portal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Generate JSON File Using GST Offline Tool and Upload on the Portal<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of generating a JSON file directly from TallyPrime, you can utilise the GSTR Offline Tool provided by the portal. To do this, export your GSTR-1 details from TallyPrime in MS Excel or CSV format, then import the file into the GST Offline Tool. After that, generate the JSON file and upload it to the portal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>File GSTR-1 Directly on the Portal<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can choose to file GSTR-1 directly on the portal without using a JSON file. Using TallyPrime, you can access the GSTR-1 report to copy necessary information which can then be pasted to the relevant fields on the GST portal. The details can be entered manually by referring back to the corresponding values found within TallyPrime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Prerequisites for Filing GSTR-1<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To ensure a smooth GSTR-1 filing process, it is essential to meet certain system and GST-related requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>System Requirements<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Internet Connection<\/strong>: A stable internet connection is necessary for uploading the JSON file, downloading the GST Offline Tool and filing your returns.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Microsoft Office Compatibility<\/strong>: If you are using the GST Offline Tool and exporting data via MS Excel, ensure you have MS Excel 2007 or later as recommended by GSTN.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>General GST Compliance<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>GSTR-3B Filing<\/strong>: Ensure that your GSTR-3B returns are filed regularly. If you fail to file GSTR-3B for two consecutive periods, GSTN will restrict your GSTR-1 return filing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Accurate Tax Calculation<\/strong>: The tax values in your sales transactions should match or exceed the <a href=\"https:\/\/taxreply.com\/gst\/System_computed_GSTR-3B_now_available_on_GST_Portal-701.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">system-computed amounts <\/a>to comply with GST regulations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>HSN Summary Requirement<\/strong>: As per Rule 59(6) and GSTN\u2019s advisory, providing a complete HSN Summary is mandatory for filing returns.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tax Liability on Advance Receipts<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Turnover-Based Tax Applicability<\/strong>: All businesses with an annual turnover of \u20b91.5 crores or less are exempt from taxing advance receipts. A business generating advance receipts in amounts exceeding the specified threshold needs to pay tax on those amounts. In such cases, enable the \u2018Tax Liability on Advance Receipts\u2019 option in the Company GST Details screen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Exclusion of Advance Receipts from GSTR-1<\/strong>: By default, tax liabilities on advance receipts are not included in GSTR-1 returns.

Data export to the GST portal can be achieved by using the required format which allows filing of the uploaded data. TallyPrime exports GST information which appears perfectly on the portal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1: <\/strong>Open the GSTR-1 report and press Alt+E (Export) &gt; GST Returns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2: <\/strong>In the Export GSTR-1 screen, choose the required period, company, or tax registration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3: <\/strong>Use Ctrl+B (Basis of Values) to configure settings.
