Overview
What is GST Cancellation?
You may want to cancel your GST registration if you have closed or transferred your business, changed its constitution, or your turnover has fallen below the threshold and registration is no longer required. Cancellation is applied for on the GST portal, and pending returns and dues must be settled.
After cancellation, a final return in Form GSTR-10 is generally required. Leaving a registration unattended can build up late fees and notices, so a clean exit matters. We review your pending compliances, file the cancellation application and complete the final return.
