The GSTN was cancelled due to non filing of Returns for more than 6 Months. But now after filing the returns with the payment of Late fees the officers are asking for calculation of Interest and pay the Interest on the basis of Gross Liability then only the activation of GSTN will take place.

Query No. 1. can they ask for Interest liability for activation of GSTN or the returns only should be filed upto the date of cancellation.

Query No. 2. If the above query is yes then should we wait for the notification be ammended to consider the interest portion on Net Tax liability.
