Steps
Contract with a GSTN-appointed GST Suvidha Provider (GSP) to obtain API access into the GST Common Portal for return filing
Authenticate using the taxpayer's GSTIN together with OTP/EVC- or DSC-based session credentials issued through the GSP
Submit invoice-level outward supply data for GSTR-1 via the returns API ahead of the monthly or quarterly due date
Retrieve the auto-populated GSTR-3B summary (drawn from GSTR-1 and GSTR-2B) and reconcile it before submission
File GSTR-3B using EVC (OTP) or a digital signature certificate through the API and capture the Application Reference Number (ARN) as filing proof
Known gotchas
A GSP only provides the technical connectivity to GSTN — it is not responsible for the accuracy of return content, so tax-figure reconciliation remains the taxpayer's obligation
GSTR-3B auto-population from GSTR-1/2B can lag or mismatch; the API does not auto-correct discrepancies, so manual reconciliation before filing is required
Monthly filers and QRMP (Quarterly Return Monthly Payment) scheme taxpayers have different periodicities and due dates; submitting the wrong periodicity in the API payload causes rejection
