You have to file all your Returns and clear all your dues pending with the department (GST) and then proceed to cancel your registration number.

Filling Return's under GST Regime is mandatory even if there is no business transaction in a particular month. ( You have to file Nil Return ).

Hence you cannot proceed for cancellation of registration unless you file all your Returns with the applicable Late Fees. [ for NIL Return it is ₹ 20 per day ( ₹10 CGST + ₹10 SGST ).
Agree with Mr Shivam RC.
Without clearing the liabilities, you cant cancel your gst registration.
Agree with Mr. Shivam & Vinod Ji
thanks for the information sir
