cancellation of registration of a composition dealer

Procedure for cancellation of registration would be similar to normal dealer registered under GST.

You need to submit an application in Form GST REG-16. You will have to furnish detail of closing stock as on the date immediately preceding the date of cancellation.

However, i am not sure about the liability to pay tax on closing stock as well. 

Also you need file Final Return GSTR-10 within 3 months from the date of cancellation.
