26 April 2024 GST number registered on 17/10/2023 but no return till date. due to no business

26 April 2024 what is your exact query?

26 April 2024 It's not good. Required GST Return filing from the date of registration. So, File Your GST return. If no business transaction then file Nil returns.

15 August 2025 Nil return filing is mandatory from the date of GST registration—even with no transactions. Failure to do so constitutes non-compliance.
Late fees apply: Nil GSTR-3B attracts approximately ₹20/day (₹10 CGST + ₹10 SGST) subject to cap.
E-way bill and future GSTR-1 filings may get blocked if GSTR-3B is not filed timely.
GST registration may be canceled if returns for six continuous months remain unfiled—leading to possible show cause notices or forced cancellation.
Important deadline: Starting 1 July 2025, GST returns older than three years from the due date cannot be filed at all (i.e., they will be time-barred). Review and complete pending filings for periods from after Oct-2023 while still possible.
Suggested Next Steps:
Check your GST portal dashboard for pending returns (e.g., months from Nov-2023 onward).
File nil GSTR-3B and GSTR-1 returns for all pending periods.
Pay the applicable late fees and interest if any defaults are detected.
Keep updated with the July 2025 time-barred compliance deadline, ensuring all returns within the three-year window are completed timely.
