GST Registration Cancellation
Close a GST number cleanly, with final return and liability settled.
Overview
A GST registration that is no longer required must be surrendered in Form REG-16, followed by the final return in GSTR-10 within three months. Businesses that simply stop filing accumulate late fees of ₹50 per day per return and risk suo-motu cancellation, which blocks future registrations for the same PAN. Jurisync clears the pending returns, computes reversal of input tax credit on closing stock and capital goods, and drives the cancellation to an approved REG-19 order.

What you actually pay
Two separate components: Jurisync's professional fee (fixed, shown below) and any government or statutory charge (billed at actuals, receipt shared with you).
| Jurisync professional fee | ₹2,499 |
|---|---|
| Government / statutory charges | Nil (pending late fees payable) |
| Indicative timeline | 7–15 working days |
| Mode of delivery | Fully online across India — documents, approvals and final certificates through your Jurisync case workspace. |
Timelines depend on government portal processing and how quickly documents are provided; statutory approval always rests with the concerned authority.
