GST Revocation
Apply for GST Revocation with The Consulting Crew
GST revocation refers to cancelling the cancellation of your Goods and Services Tax (GST) registration. If your GST registration has been cancelled—either voluntarily or by the tax authorities—you have the right to apply for revocation and reinstate your GSTIN. This legal provision allows businesses to rectify any non-compliance or issues that led to the cancellation and continue operating within the GST framework.
At The Consulting Crew, we simplify the entire GST revocation process for you. Our team of experts ensures a hassle-free experience by helping you stay compliant and resume business activities without disruptions.
What is GST Revocation?
- Issue GST-compliant invoices
- Collect GST from customers
- Claim Input Tax Credit (ITC) on purchases
- Avoid penalties and legal consequences
GST Revocation is the process of reinstating a cancelled GST registration. Whether your GSTIN was cancelled voluntarily or by the GST department, revocation helps you legally resume tax-compliant operations. Once approved, you can again:
Rule 23 - Revocation of GST Cancellation
Under Rule 23 of the CGST Rules, 2017, a taxpayer whose GST registration has been cancelled by the department can apply for revocation. As per the latest update, taxpayers have 90 days from the date of cancellation order to apply for revocation.

01

Why Was Your GST Registration Cancelled?
Not revoking your GST registration can negatively affect your business:
Important Considerations Before Applying for Revocation
- Clear all dues: Pay outstanding tax, interest, and penalties
- File all pending returns: Ensure compliance before applying
- Reverse unutilized ITC: If required under GST law
- Maintain records: You’re still liable for the compliance period when registration was active
Documents Required for GST Revocation
- GSTIN & Login Credentials
- PAN Card (of business/proprietor)
- Business Address Proof (Electricity bill, Rent Agreement, etc.)
- Bank Account Proof (Cancelled cheque/statement)
- Filed Returns (Proof of compliance)
- Form GST REG-21 (Revocation application form)
Can You Reapply for GST After Voluntary Cancellation?
No. Once GST is voluntarily cancelled, it cannot be revoked. You’ll need to apply for a new GST registration to resume operations under the GST system.
Time Limit for Revocation
As per the amended Rule 23, businesses now get 90 days from the date of the cancellation order to apply for revocation. Earlier, the time limit was 30 days—this extension gives you more flexibility to gather documents and ensure compliance.
