Payment of GST for bills pending payment

[taxgrid]

Question – I work as a contractor, submitted my bill to the department, from July onward still my bill is pending, as my bill is pending I have not submitted my GST return.

 I have not got my payment, still, I have to pay GST from my own pocket, or wait to get the bill clear from the department?

Answer – You need to make the GST payment along with the return of the period in which the time of supply for the services provided falls. If your time of supply falls say in the month of September, then you need to deposit tax in the return for the month of September. In your case most probably, the time of supply shall be the date of issue of invoice, subject to other conditions being satisfied.
