Businesses will continue to file summary sales return GSTR-3B till June as the GST (Goods and Services Tax) Council on Saturday extended the present system of return-filing by three months.
Briefing reporters after the council meeting, Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said electronic way or e-way bill for movement of goods between States would be implemented from April 1.
However, for intra-State movement, the e-way bill would be rolled out in a phased manner beginning April 15 and would cover all the States by June 1, he said.
The council could not decide on a simplified GST return form and entrusted the ministerial panel under Sushil Modi to chalk out a single-page form, which is simpler and evasion-proof.
Mr. Jaitley said tax exemptions to exporters have also been extended by six months, till September.
