Frequently Asked Questions

📚 GST Audit & Compliance FAQs

What is a GST Audit?

A Goods and Services Tax (GST) audit is a statutory requirement for businesses exceeding a specified turnover threshold. It involves a detailed examination of GST returns, reconciliations, invoice trails, and financial records to assess compliance accuracy and detect discrepancies.

A well-conducted audit minimizes penalties, strengthens internal controls, and keeps you legally protected.

Why Does GST Compliance Matter?

GST compliance is not just about regulatory filing—it's about financial health, operational continuity, and trust with authorities.

Working with a GST compliance expert helps you:

  • Avoid late fees, penalties, and audits
  • Improve financial discipline and reporting accuracy
  • Boost your GST compliance rating
  • Build confidence with vendors, banks, and government departments

At Marvel Consultants, we help you stay ahead of compliance—not just react to notices.

What documents are required for a GST audit?

Generally, we'll need:

  • GST returns (GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, GSTR-9, etc.)
  • Sales and purchase ledgers
  • Invoices (tax and commercial)
  • E-way bills (if applicable)
  • Financial statements and bank summaries

We may request sector-specific records depending on your industry (e.g., RERA ledgers for real estate, job work registers for manufacturing, etc.).

Can Marvel Consultants assist with monthly or quarterly GST return filing?

Yes. We offer comprehensive GST return filing services—monthly, quarterly, and annual—tailored to your filing schedule and business volume.

This includes:

What is the difference between GST compliance and GST litigation?

GST litigation starts when you face legal scrutiny—such as notices, audit objections, or penalties—and need representation, documentation, and defense under GST law.

  4. Filing before the appropriate appellate authority
