06 July 2024 If you are unable to cancel an e-invoice directly on the GST portal due to the limit of 500 invoices, you can follow these steps to cancel the e-invoice using the offline utility provided by GSTN (Goods and Services Tax Network):

Using Offline Utility to Cancel E-invoice:

1. Download Offline Utility:
• Visit the GST portal and download the Offline Utility tool for e-invoicing. This tool allows you to prepare and upload e-invoices offline.
2. Prepare JSON File for Cancellation:
• Use the offline utility to prepare a JSON file for cancellation of the e-invoice. You will need to provide details such as the invoice number, invoice date, and the reason for cancellation.
3. Generate IRN for Cancellation:
• Just like for generating an e-invoice, use the offline utility to generate a unique Invoice Reference Number (IRN) for the cancellation JSON file.
4. Upload Cancellation JSON File:
• Once the JSON file for cancellation is prepared and IRN is generated, upload this JSON file on the GST portal using the offline utility.
5. Submit and Verify:
• After uploading, submit the cancellation request through the offline utility. Verify that the cancellation request is processed successfully.
