The petitioner has filed the present petition seeking for setting aside of the order of cancellation of GST Registration at Annexure-A. The show-cause notice at Annexure-D would indicate that the ground made out for cancellation of registration was the failure to furnish returns for a continuous period of six months.

HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:15561 WP No. 1287 of 2026 has been affirmed by the learned counsel for the revenue. In light of the same, it would be appropriate to set aside the order at Annexure-A with a direction to the petitioner to regularize the lapse by filing of returns for a period for which returns were not filed earlier.
3. Accordingly, taking note that the petitioner has quantified his liability and paid the amount and what would remain is only filing of returns for the period of default, petition is disposed of. The order of cancellation of GST Registration at Annexure-A is set aside. Registration of GST is directed to be revived and petitioner to file returns for the period of default. Accordingly, petition is disposed of. Sd/- (S SUNIL DUTT YADAV) JUDGE MCR
