Letโs understand what this means for taxpayers, its impact, and how to comply with the new requirement.
๐งพ What is Form GSTR-7?
Form GSTR-7 is used by tax deductors under GST to:
Report the Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) details.
Furnish information about GST deducted from suppliers.
Deposit TDS with the government.
Issue TDS certificates (Form GSTR-7A) to suppliers.
Until now, TDS details could be filed summary-wise, but with this update, invoice-wise details must be reported.

From the September 2025 tax period, TDS deductors must provide invoice-level details in GSTR-7.
This includes details such as:
GSTIN of the deductee (supplier)
Invoice number and date
Invoice taxable value
Amount of TDS deducted
This ensures greater transparency, accuracy, and reconciliation between the deductor and deductee.
โฐ Important Dates to Remember
Applicable from: September 2025 tax period.
First filing deadline: 10th October 2025.
Deductors must start preparing their data invoice-wise before submission.
