The Expert BAS Accountants
If you own a business that is registered to pay Goods and Services Tax (GST), it’s important that you lodge your Business Activity Statements (BAS). We can help ensure you save valuable time by preparing and lodging your BAS electronically on your behalf with one of our expert accountants.
If your GST-related business income exceeds or is likely to exceed $75,000 in revenue, then you are required to report and lodge a quarterly BAS with the Australian Taxation Office (ATO). By lodging your BAS through a registered tax agent like POP Business, you’ll get an additional one-month extension to make payments which can help with your business cash flow.

BAS Lodgment FAQ's
The Business Activity Statement (BAS) is a form submitted to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) by registered business entities.
It’s how your business is required to report its all tax obligations – this can include GST, pay as you go withholding (PAYGW), pay as you go instalments (PAYGI), fringe benefits tax (FBT), wine equalisation tax (WET) and luxury car tax (LCT).
If your GST-related business income exceeds or is likely to exceed $75,000, then you are required to report and lodge a quarterly BAS with the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).
Your BAS will report your business revenue to the ATO for the quarter, and any Goods & Services Tax (GST) on both your sales and expenses. You will either have a GST refund (if GST-related expenses are more than GST-related sales) or a GST payable (if sales exceed GST-related expenses).
Your BAS will also report any employee wages and PAYG withholding tax. The withholding tax will be added to the GST.
By lodging your BAS through a registered tax agent such as POP Business, you will get an additional ONE MONTH to make payments which can be great for helping with your business cash flow.
The easiest way to lodge your BAS is online with POP Business.
You will need reconciled bank accounts to report accurate figures, which we can also help you to prepare with our online bookkeeping service.
Your reporting and payment cycle will be one of the following:
- Quarterly – if your GST turnover is less than $20 million (unless the ATO has told you that you must report monthly).
- Monthly – if your GST turnover is $20 million or more.
- Annually – if you are voluntarily registered for GST and your GST turnover is under $75,000 ($150,000 for not-for-profit bodies).
If you are in a GST-refundable position, best to lodge shortly after the reporting period to get the credits.
If you are in a GST-payable position, best to lodge on the due date and delay payment until then.
At POP Business, we want to help you build your dream business the right way which is why we provided affordable fixed-fee pricing.
Our BAS service costs start from $360 plus GST depending on your business structure and size.

The ATO bases their Quarterly BAS Lodgment due dates on the Financial Year:
- For Q1 (July, August and September) BAS lodgements are due on the 28th of October.
- For Q2 (October, November and December) BAS lodgements are due on the 28th February.
- For Q3 (January, February and March) BAS lodgements are due on the 28th of April.
- For Q4 (April, May and June) BAS lodgements are due on the 28th of July.
Preparing and lodging your BAS can be quite complicated.
Handing your BAS to one of our experienced accountants ensures you won’t miss out on any potential GST deductions, or miss the BAS lodgement deadline.
Using POP Business also ensures your figures will be accurate and you won’t get any nasty surprises if the ATO decides to audit your statements.
POP always reviews every aspect of your business to ensure your tax position is optimised for YOU.
You are only required to lodge a BAS once your business has registered for the GST.
GST registration is required when your business’ gross income (excluding GST of 10%) is equal to $75,000 or more.
If you are a not-for-profit, the turnover requirement is $150,000.
Some industries are required to register for GST, including ride-share drivers (Uber, Ola, taxi-drivers, etc).
