GSTR-10 is the final return a business must file after its GST registration is cancelled or surrendered. Missing it can attract penalties. CASYST prepares and files your final return on time.
What is GSTR-10?
A GSTR-10, also called the final return, must be filed by a taxpayer whose registration has been cancelled or surrendered. It must be filed within a set number of months of the date of cancellation or of the cancellation order, whichever is later.
It reports the stock and input credit held on the date of cancellation and any tax payable on them.
