What the GST Return Filing Status API does

A registration can be active while returns go unfiled for months. The GST Return Filing Status API returns the filing record by period and return type, so you can see late filers and non-filers before they become a payment or credit problem.

Credit teams use the filing cadence as a proxy for operating activity; procurement uses it to protect input tax credit on purchases.
