My GST got cancelled as i missed a nil return approx a year back and got a notice in GST portal for it. I have filed that return when i saw the notice but have not replied the notice as there was no option to reply in gst portal.

Now after apporx a year i got another notice that my registration is now cancelled few days back.

Can i get it back without visiting the GST office ?

As per my view Yes...
Try to file revocation. Before applying file Your all bending GST returns up-to the cancelled period.

A registered taxpayer can submit the form GST REG21 application for the Revocation of cancellation of GST Registration either directly or through facilitation centre notified by the commissioner if his registration cancelled suo moto by the Proper Tax Officer.

Thanks for replying but i have few queries, Actually i was not using the GST no. as i switched to services business instead of trading(Proprietorship firm) and this GST was for trading which i no longer do and was just filling in nil return from years. So i don't mind if it got cancelled as eventually i wanted to cancel it one day. 1) So is there any difference if it got cancelled by GST officer or If i have cancelled it myself ? 2) Or should i re-instantiate it and then cancel it my self ? as someone told me that i will keep on showing as defaulter. But i have filed all the pending returns and in notice received it its specified that i need to pay pending amount of Rs. 0(zero) 3) Will it cause any problem in future as i want to plan on getting another GST number for other type of services with a rented place(different address from previous one) , but my PAN and Aadhaar etc will be same, it will be a Proprietorship firm with different name? 4) Will I get a new fresh login for new GST number , i will be using different phone no. and email id and new rented address but same PAN, Aadhaar number

Yes... The cancellation applied by You (before settle all payables or returns) then You can use the same Pan for taking new registration...

In case dept cancelled Your gstin then You must be clear the provisions as per GST then only You can use the same Pan in future...

I agree with Mr. Raja P M it is better to go and apply cancellation by us rather than cancelled by Dept.

Incase Dept revokes, they might trace out som GST Liab and we may face some legal consequences of same.
Better apply for self cancellation and declare liab. which gets easy approval for cancellation by dept...

At first you may approach the relevent GST Officer to clear all liabilities relates to the previous firm. Then apply for the fresh registration.

Thanks for replying, But in the notice received its clearly written that i have to pay a Pending amount of Rs. 0 (Zero) , so that way its clear that there is nothing pending on my side still i will be considered a defaulter by Dept?

In GST portal its written that my GST is cancelled from 15-6-2020 and there is option to apply for Revoking of cancellation in portal itself.

Application for revocation of cancellation order of registration should be filled with 30days from effective date of cancellation and your effective date of cancellation is 15.06.2020 so u can file application till 15.07.2020 and on GST Portal it is available on Registration tab, it's 4th one.
today 13th July so 2 days are left, Hurry up

ok, thanks for providing the details, from where can i view all the quarterly returns filled in gst as it says in reason for cancellation failure in filing quarterly return ? I clicked Services->View Filed Returns and there no matter what i choose it never shows any returns,

I have switched my account from Regular to Composite and then back to Regular , so is the quarterly return GSTR4 for both composite and regular or in composite only CMP08 is filed ?
