Step 1 :
A registered person, whose registration is Cancelled by the Proper
officer on his own motion, may submit an application for revocation of
cancellation of registration, in FORM GST REG-21, to such proper officer, within a period of thirty days from the date of the service of the order of cancellation of registration at the common portal, either directly or through a Facilitation Centre notified by the Commissioner.
The proper officer shall not reject the
application for revocation of cancellation of registration without
giving a show cause notice and without giving the person a reasonable
opportunity of being heard. Revocation of cancellation of registration
under State Goods and Services Tax Act or the Union Territory Goods and
Services Tax Act shall be deemed to be a revocation of cancellation of
registration under the Central Goods and Services Tax Act.
- No application for revocation shall be filed, if the registration has been cancelled for the failure of the registered person to furnish returns, unless such returns are furnished and any amount due as tax, in terms of such returns, has been paid along with any amount payable towards interest, penalty and late fee in respect of the said returns.
- Provided that all returns due for the period from the date of the order of cancellation of registration till the date of the order of revocation of cancellation of registration shall be furnished by the said person within a period of thirty days from the date of order of revocation of cancellation of registration
- Provided also that where the registration has been cancelled with retrospective effect, the registered person shall furnish all returns relating to period from the effective date of cancellation of registration till the date of order of revocation of cancellation of registration within a period of thirty days from the date of order of revocation of cancellation of registration.
Step 2 :
Where the proper officer is satisfied, for reasons to be recorded in writing, that there are sufficient grounds for revocation of cancellation of registration, he shall revoke the cancellation of registration by an order in FORM GST REG-22 within a period of thirty days from the date of the receipt of the application and communicate the same to the applicant.
The proper officer may, for reasons to be recorded in writing, under circumstances other than those specified in clause (a), by an order in FORM GST REG-05, reject the application for revocation of cancellation of registration and communicate the same to the applicant.
Step 3 :
The proper officer shall, before passing the order referred to in clause (b) of sub-rule (2), issue a notice in FORM GST REG–23 requiring the applicant to show cause as to why the application submitted for revocation under sub-rule (1) should not be rejected and the applicant shall furnish the reply within a period of seven working days from the date of the service of the notice in FORMGSTREG-24.
Step 4 :
Upon receipt of the information or clarification in FORM GST REG-24, the proper officer shall proceed to dispose of the application in the manner specified in sub-rule (2) within a period of thirty days from the date of the receipt of such information or clarification from the applicant.
For Reference:
Rule 23 of the CGST Rules, 2017, provides for process of revocation of cancellation of registration and includes the following:
- Application for revocation or cancellation of registration shall be made within 30 days of date of service of cancellation order.
- No application for revocation shall be filed, if the registration has been cancelled for the failure to furnish returns, unless such returns are furnished and any amount due as tax, in terms of such returns, has been paid along with any amount payable towards interest, penalty and late fee in respect of the said returns.
- Revocation of cancellation under CGST will be a deemed revocation under SGST and vice-versa.
- Upon receipt of the information or clarification, the proper officer shall proceed to dispose of the application within a period of thirty days from the date of the receipt of such information of clarification from the applicant.
