If GSTIN is cancelled, can there still be a penalty?

Sir,

If the penalty is quantified before cancellation of registration through proper order then the same can be collected from you even after cancellation of registration.

[KASTURI SETHI]

Yes. Penalty is imposed upon the person for the offences committed during the period that person remained registered.

Cancellation of registration does not mean the offender is absolved of the offence committed during the period when he was registered. 'Time factor' does not reduce the gravity of the offence or economic crime committed..

[KASTURI SETHI]

Cancellation of registration does not mean clean chit to the accused/noticee.

[Shilpi Jain]

Yes. The department can issue a demand until the period of limitation under the law u/s 73 & 74.

I agree withe views of all the experts.

[Rupali Gupta]

Yes, I agree with experts, prior dues including penalty will not be affected because of GST cancellation.
