Hi there i had a GST number which got cancelled in december 2024 but i did not filed that GSTR 10 because i was not aware of and now it asking a hefty amount of late fees. I took that gst number back in 2023 to save some gst money on my computer purchases but i never got them to enjoy because i never made any sell turnover on that business. I already paid around 5000 on monthly nill gstr returns. I dont have any money to pay them now because i am ill from previous year for which i have every bit of proof. Please help me.

I understand your situation, and I'm here to guide you through the possible steps to address the issue. Understanding the Issue: - *GST Number Cancellation*: Your GST number was cancelled in December 2024. - *Non-Filing of GSTR-10*: You didn't file GSTR-10, which is required within 3 months from the date of cancellation or date of order. - *Late Fee Liability*: You're facing a hefty late fee liability. Possible Steps: 1. *File GSTR-10*: Immediately file GSTR-10, even though it's late, to report the cancellation of your GST registration. 2. *Submit an Application for Waiver of Late Fee*: Along with GSTR-10, submit an application for waiver of late fee, explaining your situation, including your illness and lack of business activity. 3. *Attach Supporting Documents*: Attach supporting documents, such as medical certificates, hospital records, and any other relevant proof, to substantiate your claim. 4. *Request for Waiver or Reduction of Late Fee*: Request the authorities to waive or reduce the late fee, considering your genuine reasons and financial difficulties. Key Points: - *GSTR-10 Filing*: Filing GSTR-10 is essential, even if it's late, to avoid further complications. - *Waiver Application*: Submitting a waiver application with supporting documents can help you request a waiver or reduction of the late fee. Consult a Tax Professional: It's highly recommended that you consult a tax professional or chartered accountant to ensure you're following the correct procedure and submitting the necessary documents. They can also help you draft a waiver application and represent you before the authorities, if needed.

The government sometimes introduces waivers or reductions in late fees for delayed GSTR-10 filings. You would check with a GST practitioner or the GST notifications for any such relief.
