In how much time , will the GSTIN be suspended, if :

1. The turnover is zero and there is not any inward supply too continuously and the NIL return is filed regularly.

2. If the turnover is zero but few purchases are going on say 3-4 bill in the year. I mean the stock is increasing but there is not any sale.

dont worry ...
you can add your november sale purchase bill with december 3B and make payment(sett off december liability with nov liability)
and second is intrest or penalty till now not leived and we hope till march 2018 gov not leived any type intrest cause gst is new ...
no late fee you have to pay on it ...

Mam, I am a migrated VAT Dealer, and I dont want to surrender GST. I just want to know that, if there is any provision that "If turnover remains zero for a due course(months/years) of time then GSTIN will be AUTOMATICALLY CANCELLED.....(Purchases are there but there is not any sale continuously).

offline - means on counter or RTGS/NEFT
in counter and RTGS /NEFT you have to create challan from portal no required mobile number
in online net banking you have to create challan online

in all condition you have to create challan ... no require mobile number
