Non filing of GST RETURN

Hello Sir,
I have registered under GST in the month of August 2017 I was continuously filing my GST returns up to December but suddenly when I was filing my GST return for the month of January it shows an error which state that I have not filed my previous months returns therefore I will not be able to file my January GST return.

I was made an email and application for this error to GST portal in the month of February but no response was given by GST department on my email.

after a lot of efforts in the month of August the application was encouraged by GST department and he resolve the error now I am able to file my GST return for the month of January and so on but because of gap in filing of my GST returns there is a huge amount of penalty.

the error was committed because of GST portal not on my behalf so can I get relief in respect of penalty imposed by GST department if so please advise me how to move further.
thank you
