Quick Summary
This discussion addresses the possibility of cancelling a GST registration, even if the business deals with non-GST products like CNG. It confirms that cancellation is indeed possible by submitting Form GST REG-16. To ensure approval, all outstanding returns must be filed up to the cancellation date. The thread also clarifies that while there's no mandatory criteria to register for GST based solely on prior VAT registration, all VAT/CST registered dealers were migrated and required to surrender their old registrations.

Yes cancellation is possible. Make cancellation request in form GST REG 16

Yes you can go for cancellation of GST Registration or the same might have been cancelled because on non filing of returns. 

All the returns have to be filed upto the date of cancellation for approval of cancellation.  

Yes you can cancel your gst number if you have only non taxable supply

Is there any criteria for if I am registered under VAT then it is mandatory to registered under GST ?

No there is no such criteria

No there is no such criteria for mandatory registration. But all VAT/CST registered dealers were migrated to GST. At that time the dealer was required to surrender the registration.
