harassment by procedure

I tried with cleartax. they did not respond. .
when a nil return is to be filed could not the learned hi-fis provide a simple option without filling 100 unwanted columns which are tiresome for one who is in low ebb for filing nil return? why not make gst return compulsory only when on the prescribed turn over to ease small struggling business man ? You can impose stiff penalties for wanton evaders rather than harass the small business men who are in large numbers and finally this may reflect in elections also.
Finally one practical clue.
The high profile businessmen have exclusive auditors and CAs and connections with higher ups could not be touched by officials.only small business men are left as prey for harassing officials who have been practised for harassing people for years.
The philosophy taught to them that 1000 people may suffer,but no one should escape tax net.
But every one knows what is in practise. more  

I feel you are talking about GSTR 1. Simply fill up only 1 in HSN details and save the forms. You do not have to do anything else. The return shall be filed. more  
Returns give govt vital data to detect frauds. even if it is NIL return, it has lot of value when it comes to audit / detecting fraud / leakages. You may have noticed that suddenly, there are high profile fraud detection on GST. This is because of software / online return filing. Software itself can detect anomaly in returns and raise RED flags. Once all such returns, only first couple of times you find it daunting. As such, these are easy. it is just getting used to for couple of times. more  
You may hire an expert to file nil returns, note down procedures for future filling. I had similar problem, now after trying and failing 2-3 times, now I don't have any problem in filing nil return each month. more
