What is GSTR 10?

GSTR 10 is different from the Annual GST Return. It is filed only one time and as the last GST return. Any registered taxpayer who opts to cancel their GST registration needs to file this return within three months from the cancellation date or the date on which the cancellation order was passed.

The GSTR-10 is needed to be filed online, via the GSTN website, within 3 months from the cancellation date or the date on which the cancellation order was passed, whichever is later.

For instance, if a company decides to cancel their GST registration, for any reason, on 1st September 2018, they will have to their GSTR-10 by 1st December 2018.

What is the Penalty for not Filing GSTR-10?

The final GST return, GSTR 10, must be filed within three months from the cancellation date. If a taxpayer has got the cancellation order but fails to file the return within the given time frame, he/she will receive a notice granting 15 days additional time to file the return and submit all the required documents. If they fail to submit their final return even after 15 days period or provide any response to the notice, then the respective tax officer will release a final notice of cancellation providing details of due GST payable along with penalty/fee/interest amount if any.

In order to avoid paying penalty or interest, it is recommended for all taxpayers who have cancelled their GST registrations to file their GSTR-10 returns within the due date.

      Until and unless GST Registeration is not cancelled by the department you have to follow the rules and regulations and late fees will be applicable if you fail to comply with the same.
