GST Registration Revocation

Apply for revocation of a suo moto cancelled GST registration by filing pending returns and submitting the revocation application.

Overview

When a GST registration is cancelled suo moto by the tax officer (usually for non-filing of returns), the registered person can apply for revocation of the cancellation within 30 days of the cancellation order (or within extended timelines as may be permitted).

When Is Revocation Applicable?

  • Registration cancelled suo moto by the department
  • Typically for non-filing of returns for a continuous period
  • Revocation is NOT available if the registration was cancelled at the taxpayer's own request

  2. Pay all outstanding tax, interest and late fees
  3. File the revocation application (Form GST REG-21) within the prescribed timeline
  4. The officer reviews and either approves or rejects the application
  5. If approved, the registration is restored
