i have taken tin number in april 2015 , since there were no sales at all i have not filled returns for three quaters , now i want to surrender my tin number . Should i m liable to pay penalty under dvat act.
Section 86(9) of DVAT Act :-
- Fails to furnish return by due date or
- Fails to furnish with a return any other document that is required to be furnished with the return or
- Fails to furnish revised return by the due date or
- Fails to comply with a requirement in a notification issue u/s 70.
Quantum of Penalty:-Rs.200 per day maximum upto fifty thousand.Default in furnishing both retuns ( VAT & CST ) attracts penalty upto one lakh.
Is there any way to waive of the penalty since there were no sale and i have not even collected vat or cst from anyone.
Please suggest me what procedure shall i follow to surrender my TIN Number. Please reply asap.
