Interest at 18% per annum (Sec 50(1)) applies on tax paid after the due date, computed on the net cash tax liability — i.e. only the portion actually discharged through the Electronic Cash Ledger, per the retrospective "net liability" amendment (Finance Act 2021, effective 01-07-2017). Interest where ITC is wrongly availed and utilised is charged at 24% p.a. under Sec 50(3), reduced from the original rate retrospectively vide Finance Act 2022.
A daily late fee applies for filing a return after its due date, split equally between CGST and SGST/UTGST Acts (no IGST or CESS component). The base provision caps late fee at ₹200/day (₹100+₹100), subject to a maximum of ₹5,000, unless a lower rate/cap has been separately notified for that return (as is the case for GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, GSTR-4 and GSTR-9/9C).
