When taxpayers cancel their Goods and Services Tax registration, they are no longer considered Goods and Services Tax-registered. Since they are exempt from Goods and Services Tax, they need not submit Goods and Services Tax returns or claim Goods and Services Tax input tax credit.
What are the Reasons for the Retraction of Neutralize?
Taxpayers may request the termination or retraction of their Goods and Services Tax enrollment if they wish to. Goods and Services Tax enrollment neutralize requests must be submitted using the official Goods and Services Tax Portal. Whether you are looking to cancel your Goods and Services Tax enrollment or retract it, this article will walk you through the steps.
Reasons for Neutralize Registration
Proper authorities may cancel an individual’s registration if they believe the individual:
- Has broken any part of the Act and any one of the regulations issued under it
- Have not filed in 3 years
- Not submitted any reports for six months (for others)
- It hasn’t opened for business within the first six months after registering
- Has successfully registered using deception, including but not limited to providing false information on the registration form or omitting relevant information
- The responsible authority must provide the alleged defaulter a chance to be heard before cancelling registration.
Neutralize or Retraction Request Form
- The government clarified that a taxpayer whose Goods and Services Tax enrollment has been retract is not eligible to reapply for a new Goods and Services Tax enrollment
- There has been a recent uptick in neutralize of taxpayer’s Goods and Services Tax enrollment under Part 29(2) of the Federal Goods & Service Tax Act, 2017, or failure to submit Form GSTR 3B and Form GSTR 4. Since these individuals did not submit a request for retraction within 30 days of neutralization, a Reduction of Difficulties Order (RoD) was issued to allow them to do so by 22 July 2019. Importantly, this warning only applies to taxpayers for whom registration was retracted on or before 31 March 2019, and who did not react to the letters sent.
Non-Permissibility
If your registration has already been cancelled because you failed to submit the required returns, you will not be able to submit a GST revocation application. For this reason, before applying to retract, taxpayers must first submit any tax returns due before the date of all such neutralize.
In addition, the common site does not make it easy to apply for retraction beyond the start date of neutralize if the register has been retract with retroactive effect. In light of this, an application for withdrawal of registration may be filed within 30 days of the date of the order of retraction, but only if all returns for the period beginning on the effective date of withdrawal of enrollment and ending on the date of the order of retraction have been filed.
