GSTR-10 is the final return due within three months of cancellation. Sec 46 also covers it, so the notice asks you to file it.

Provisions

Sec 46, CGST Act 2017; Sec 45, CGST Act 2017; Sec 47, CGST Act 2017

Analysis

Many people think cancellation ends everything, but Sec 45 asks for a final return showing closing stock and tax on it. Example: cancelled on 31 March 2026, GSTR-10 was due by 30 June 2026. File it now with the stock details and any tax on stock. Check the late fee on the portal before filing.
