Information required in ER-4, ER-5, ER-6 returns will be covered by Annual Return under Rule 12 of CE Rules, 2002.

[KASTURI SETHI]

Annual return required to be filed under Rule 12 (2a) of CE Rules, 2002 is substitute for ER-4, ER-5, ER-6 and ER-7, returns. The following Board's circular will throw light :-

Circular No. 1050/38/2016-CX, dated 8-11-2016

ER-4, ER-5 and ER-6 was supposed to dispensed with for Annual Return. Since GST is on the way the Board informed that no Annual return is required to be filed.

[KASTURI SETHI]

Circular is required to be issued for non-filing of annual return for the year 2016-17 as GST is still to be implemented.

Thanks Sri Kasturi Sir for clarifying the query with supportings. Thanks.

We may expect the circular for the said purpose during the month of November 2017 as done in the year 2016.
