GST Registration Revocation


If your GST registration has been cancelled due to missed filings or non-compliance, you may be eligible
to apply for revocation and restore your registration. The process is time-bound and requires proper
documentation and timely responses to notices.


Revocation of GST registration helps you regain your legal tax identity, continue issuing valid tax invoices,
and stay fully compliant on the GST portal.


What is GST Revocation?


GST revocation is the process of restoring a cancelled GST registration. When registration is cancelled
due to non-filing of returns, non-compliance, or procedural issues, the taxpayer can apply for revocation
within the prescribed time to reactivate it.


Reinstating your GST registration helps you:


✅ Avoid penalties

✅ Resume filing returns

✅ Retain your legal tax identity

✅ Claim input tax credit

✅ Continue issuing valid tax invoices


Without revocation, cancellation remains in force and your business cannot legally operate under GST.
Applying for revocation ensures you are restored to active status and can continue regular GST compliance.


Why is GST Registration Revoked?


GST registration may be cancelled or revoked by the authorities for several reasons, including:


📌 Non-filing of GST returns: Continuous failure to file returns for prescribed periods
can lead to cancellation of registration by the department.

📌 Business closure: When a business is permanently shut down, registration may be
cancelled on application or by the officer.

📌 Change in business structure: Events like merger, demerger, transfer, or change of
constitution may require cancellation of existing registration and fresh registration.

📌 Non-compliance with GST laws: Serious violations such as tax evasion, fraudulent
claims, or furnishing false information can result in cancellation.

📌 Voluntary cancellation: A taxpayer may request cancellation if they no longer meet
the threshold or conditions for mandatory GST registration.

📌 Inactivity of business: Prolonged inactivity without taxable supplies can also
trigger cancellation of GST registration.


GST Revocation Process: Step-by-Step Guide


Follow this step-by-step process to apply for revocation of a cancelled GST registration and restore your active GST status.


1


Application for Revocation (Form GST REG-21)

Start the revocation process by submitting an application in Form GST REG-21 along with required documents to the GST department.


Two ways to submit the application:



💻 Online Filing

  • Log in to the GST portal with your credentials.
  • Select “Application for Revocation of Cancellation of Registration”.
  • Fill Form GST REG-21 and upload supporting documents.
  • Submit the form electronically.


📝 Offline Filing

  • Prepare Form GST REG-21 with all required attachments.
  • Submit it to your jurisdictional GST office (in person / post).

Once submitted, the application is officially recorded and moves to the scrutiny stage.


2


Scrutiny of Application by GST Officer

The jurisdictional GST officer reviews your application for compliance and verifies the documents submitted.


During scrutiny, the officer may:

  • Request additional documents or clarifications.
  • Carry out further checks or investigation, if required.

This step ensures revocation is granted only where non-compliance has been corrected or cancellation was not warranted.


3


Revocation Confirmation or Rejection


✅ If Accepted:
GST registration is reactivated and you can resume all GST activities. An official order confirming revocation is issued on the portal.

❌ If Rejected:
You are informed of the reasons for rejection. You may correct deficiencies and reapply, or proceed through the appeal mechanism as per GST law.

Timely response to notices and complete documentation significantly improve the chances of approval.


Documents Required for GST Revocation


Keep the following documents ready while applying for revocation of a cancelled GST registration.
Complete documentation helps avoid delays or rejection of your application.

Application Form GST REG-21
Official application form used to request revocation of cancellation of GST registration.

Copy of Cancellation Order
The cancellation notice or order issued by the GST department for your registration.

Proof of Compliance
Evidence that all pending GST returns are filed and dues, if any, have been paid or corrected.

Written Explanation
A brief letter or note explaining the reason for cancellation and why revocation is requested.

Supporting Documents
Relevant records such as ledgers, financial statements, or communication with tax authorities,
supporting your revocation request.

Authorization Letter (If Applicable)
Required when a representative, GST practitioner, or consultant files the revocation application
on behalf of the taxpayer.


Timeframe for GST Revocation


The GST revocation process typically takes around 7 to 14 working days from the date of
submission, depending on the completeness of your application, officer workload, and whether any
additional information is required.

📄 Application Submission
Immediate to 2 working days
Form GST REG-21 is submitted online and acknowledged almost instantly on the GST portal.

🔍 Scrutiny by GST Officer
Approx. 5 to 10 working days
The officer reviews your application and documents, and may seek clarifications or additional details.

✅ Final Decision
1 to 3 working days
After scrutiny, an approval or rejection order is issued and reflected in your GST profile.

⚠ Possible Delays
Incomplete details, missing documents, or late responses to queries from the department
can extend the overall processing time beyond the normal window.


Note: Timely submission of all required documents and quick replies to notices help
ensure faster revocation of your GST registration.


Fees Associated with GST Revocation


While there is no government charge for submitting the revocation application itself,
you may still incur costs relating to professional services and clearance of past dues.

🏛 No Government Fee
There is no official government fee for filing
Form GST REG-21 to request revocation of a cancelled registration.

👨‍💼 Professional Service Fee
If you engage a CA, GST practitioner, or consultant for documentation, filing,
and follow-ups, a professional fee may be charged depending on
the complexity and level of support.

⚠ Pending Penalties & Late Fees
Any outstanding interest, late fees, or penalties due to past
non-compliance must be cleared before approval. These are separate from
professional service charges.

📅 Pending Returns
All overdue GST returns must be filed and any tax dues paid.
Failure to do so can delay or prevent approval of the revocation request.


⚠
Consequences of GST Registration Revocation


Revoking the cancellation of your GST registration restores your GST status, but it also
brings important financial and compliance implications that you should be aware of.

🔄 Reversal of Input Tax Credit (ITC)
On cancellation, you may be required to reverse previously claimed ITC. Revocation can
trigger re-calculation and settlement of such credits, which may impact cash flow.

📉 Business Continuity
Until revocation is approved, you cannot legally collect GST or issue valid tax invoices,
which can affect sales, contracts, and vendor relationships.

📅 Compliance Obligations
Once registration is restored, you must resume filing all applicable GST returns on time
and pay any outstanding dues to avoid fresh cancellations or penalties.

⚖ Legal Accountability
Continued non-compliance even after revocation can lead to stricter action, including
higher penalties, scrutiny, and in extreme cases, prosecution under GST law.


Tip: Revocation should be followed by consistent and timely compliance to
keep your GST status clean and avoid repeated cancellations.
