ORDER : KRISHNAN RAMASAMY, J. The challenge in this writ petition is to the order dated 11.03.2024 passed by the respondent, cancelling the GST registration of the petitioner. 2. Mr.S.Gurumoorthy, learned Senior Standing Counsel, takes notice on behalf of the respondent. 3. By consent of the parties, the main Writ Petition is taken up for disposal at the time of admission stage itself. 4. The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the Petitioner is a registered tax payer under the GST enactments and they have been filing the GST returns regularly upto financial year 2022-23, however, due to slowdown in the business of the petitioner, many employees left the service of the petitioner, as a result, the Petitioner could not file its returns for the continuous period of 6 months. Consequently, the respondent issued a show cause notice on 05.02.2024, proposing the cancellation of the GST registration for non-filing of returns for a continuous period of six months, and subsequently passing an order of cancellation on 11.03.2024. The learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that since the show cause was uploaded in the GST portal, without serving physical copy of the same to the petitioner, the petitioner was not aware of the same and hence could not file its reply, which resulted in passing of the impugned order. Thereafter, with a view to restart the business, the petitioner has filed the monthly returns upto the date of cancellation of the GST registration. However, since the GST registration was cancelled the petitioner is unable to restart its business. That apart the time limit for filing an application for revocation of cancellation and for filing appeal have also expired. He therefore prays to set aside the impugned order and direct the respondent to restore and activate the GST registration of the petitioner. 5. On the other hand, the learned Senior Standing Counsel appearing for the respondent submitted that the petitioner did not file returns for a continuous period of six months, which led to the passing of the impugned order. He further submitted that the revocation of the cancellation of registration will be considered only upon payment of all dues and filing of all returns. 6. Heard the learned counsel on either side and perused the materials available on record. 7. Admittedly, the GST registration of the petitioner was cancelled due to non-compliance in filing returns. He further submitted that the revocation of the cancellation of registration will be considered only upon payment of all dues and filing of all returns. 6. Heard the learned counsel on either side and perused the materials available on record. 7. Admittedly, the GST registration of the petitioner was cancelled due to non-compliance in filing returns. Furthermore, the time limit for filing an application for revocation of the cancellation and also for filing statutory appeal against the cancellation order had also expired, and the petitioner stated that due to slowdown in the business of the Petitioner, they could not pay GST dues and file the returns.
