April 2027 Compliance Calendar

Every statutory due date falling in April 2027 - GST, TDS, income tax, ROC, PF, ESIC and profession tax - with the form, the period it covers and who it applies to.

15 due dates FY 2026-27

April 2027 carries 15 statutory due dates for Indian businesses, spanning GST, payroll, TDS/TCS and ROC/MCA. The first falls on the 7th (TCS Payment) and the last on the 30th (GSTR-4 (Composition Annual)).

The heaviest date is the 15th, when 3 filings fall due together: EPF / ECR Payment, ESIC Contribution and Maharashtra PT (PTRC) Monthly Return & Payment. Plan the working papers for these a few days ahead - the portals slow noticeably on peak dates.

In total that is 9 GST returns and 1 ROC filing, alongside the recurring TDS deposit and payroll obligations. Dates below are indicative and can shift if CBDT, GSTN, MCA, EPFO or ESIC issue an extension circular.

Maharashtra PTRC monthly return and payment fall due on the 15th of the month following the month in which salary is paid (Rule 11(3), amended by notification dated 28 Feb 2026); the PTRC annual return is due 15 March and PTEC payment 30 June. Monthly TDS deposit is due the 7th of the following month, except TDS on March deductions which is due 30 April. All dates are indicative and subject to extension circulars by CBDT, GSTN, MCA, EPFO & ESIC.
