What trips people up

  • Non-core amendment blocked

    A core application is pending; wait for it to be approved firstSource

  • Amendment links disabled

    Happens after cancellation is filed or GSTIN is suspended; resolve that firstSource

  • Bank account validation fails

    Account holder name and PAN must match PAN dataSource

  • Wanted to move the business to another State

    Not an amendment; cancel and apply afresh in the new StateSource

  • Draft amendment disappeared

    Saved drafts are purged after 15 days; submit within that timeSource

  • Old signatory left and the registered mobile and email are not accessible

    Approach the jurisdictional officer with identity proof to update contacts and reset loginSource
