GSTCMP – 08 Return Filing, Format, Eligibility & Rule

Introduction:

An amendment was made in CGST rules to make the tax filing process for taxpayers easier and that’s FORM CMP-08 was introduced

What is Form CMP-08?

A composition dealer will use the Form CMP-08. CMP-08 is a special statement and challan to declare the details or summary of the taxpayer’s tax. It can be self-assessed tax payable for a given quarter. It also acts as a challan for making payment of tax. A composition dealer is a dealer who has been registered under the composition scheme of GST.
In addition to filing the GST CMP-08 form, a composition dealer needs to file an annual return in form GSTR-4 as well. Every person who has aggregated annual turnover as told under the GST composition scheme can choose to become a composition dealer.
A normal taxpayer registered under GST can opt for the composition scheme by filing an application in the form GST CMP-02.

Who can File CMP-08?

The taxpayers who have registered as composition dealers either by filing form GST REG-1 or form GST CMP-02 has to file Form GST CMP-08.

1. If the Taxpayer deals with the supply of Goods and who has a turnover of Rs. 1.50 crore in the previous financial year.
