VAT Return Filing Services end-to-end MVAT compliance for every category of dealer.
Comprehensive VAT return filing services in Mumbai and across Maharashtra — full-scope MVAT compliance for petroleum dealers, liquor dealers, notified goods dealers, and businesses with pre-GST legacy VAT obligations, including return filing, assessment support, C-form management, and refund claims under the Maharashtra Value Added Tax Act, 2002.
VAT return filing services under the MVAT Act go beyond simply submitting a return on the Mahavat portal. For active dealers in petroleum and liquor, compliance involves correct rate application for each product category, set-off computation and reconciliation, C-form and F-form management for inter-state and branch transfer transactions, VAT audit under Section 61 of the MVAT Act for dealers with turnover above the audit threshold, and annual VAT return certification by a Chartered Accountant.
For businesses with pre-GST legacy MVAT registrations, return filing services include revisionary returns to correct errors in originally filed returns, arrear return filing for unfiled periods, response to assessment notices, and claims for carry-forward set-off credit that was not applied before the transition to GST. The Maharashtra Sales Tax Department continues to process and audit returns from the pre-GST period, and businesses must have their historical returns and records in order.
Our VAT return filing service is a fully managed compliance solution — we collect your sales and purchase data, compute output tax and input set-off, prepare and file the applicable return form, track payments, manage C-form requests and submissions, assist in VAT audits, and provide a complete compliance record for assessment and audit purposes. Our team serves petroleum pump owners, brewery and distillery distributors, notified goods dealers, and businesses managing legacy MVAT portfolios.

Benefits of a Managed VAT Filing Service
Frequently Asked Questions
A managed service covers data collection from your records, output VAT and set-off computation, challan preparation and payment tracking, return e-filing on Mahavat, C-form and F-form management, and a complete compliance record for your accounts team.
VAT audit under Section 61 of the MVAT Act is mandatory for dealers whose turnover exceeds the prescribed threshold (Rs 1 crore for goods). The audit is conducted by a Chartered Accountant who certifies the annual return, reconciles turnover and tax, and submits the audit report.
A revisionary return is a corrected version of an earlier filed MVAT return, submitted to correct errors in output tax, set-off, or turnover. It must be filed within the prescribed revision period and may result in an additional tax payment or a refund.
Unfiled MVAT returns for the pre-GST period are subject to best judgement assessment by the Sales Tax Officer, which typically results in a higher demand than the actual liability. Filing the returns voluntarily, even with delay, is strongly advisable.
Set-off credit that was available under MVAT but not utilised before GST implementation may be recoverable through refund applications subject to the limitation period. Our team analyses unclaimed MVAT set-off and assists in filing recovery applications.
