To cancel your GST registration<\/strong><\/a>, log in to gst.gov.in<\/a>  and go to Services \u2192 Registration \u2192 Application for Cancellation of Registration, and file Form GST REG-16 with your reason, the date of cancellation, and details of stock held and tax payable on it. The officer issues the cancellation order in Form GST REG-19, usually within 30 days. After cancellation, you must file the final return GSTR-10 within 3 months missing it brings a penalty of \u20b9200 per day (capped at \u20b910,000). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You must also reverse the ITC on your closing stock. The officer can also cancel your GST on his own (suo moto) \u2014 for example, for not filing returns for 6 months after a show cause notice (REG-17). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can apply for revocation (Form REG-21) only if the officer cancelled it; voluntary cancellation cannot be reversed, and you must take a fresh registration instead. Cancellation is free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
