Quick Summary
This discussion addresses a user's inability to file their GSTR 10 after cancelling their GST registration. The primary issue stems from an error stating GSTR 1 for January 2020 is not filed, despite the user recalling filing a nil return. The user is seeking guidance on how to resolve this portal error and avoid accumulating late fees, as previous attempts to contact the GST helpdesk have been unsuccessful.

It sounds like you're facing an issue with filing GSTR10 due to a pending GSTR1 for January 2020. Here's a step-by-step plan to help you resolve this: 1. Verify GSTR1 submission: Log in to the GST portal and check if GSTR1 for January 2020 was indeed submitted. If it shows "submitted" but not "filed", you may need to contact the GST helpdesk or a tax professional for assistance. 2. File GSTR1: If GSTR1 was not filed, try filing it now. If the system doesn't allow you to file, you may need to seek help from the GST helpdesk or a tax professional. 3. File GSTR3B: Ensure GSTR3B for January 2020 is filed, as you mentioned it was already done. 4. File GSTR10: Once GSTR1 and GSTR3B are filed, try filing GSTR10 again. 5. Late fees: You may need to pay late fees for delayed filing. You can calculate the fees using the GST late fee calculator. 6. Seek professional help: If you're still facing issues, consider consulting a tax professional or GST expert to assist you in resolving the matter. 7. GST helpdesk: Reach out to the GST helpdesk for assistance and guidance throughout the process. Remember to address this issue promptly to minimize further accumulation of late fees.
