Cost breakdown
Our fee and the government’s are always separate lines. Government fees are passed through at exactly what the authority charges — we add nothing to them.

Read: "Filing Form GST REG-16 (Cancellation Application)... Nil" REG-16 nil stated by IndiaFilings only (its government-fees table). CGST Rule 20 read on taxinformation.cbic.gov.in: no fee provision; portal manual Cancellation_of_Registration_manual.htm silent. GST portal FAQ (tutorial.gst.gov.in FAQs_GSTR-10.htm, FAQ 20): 'Yes, late fee is charged on filing of Form GSTR-10 beyond the due date.' Late-fee amount is the s.47(1) figure read on the CBIC statute repository ('one hundred rupees for every day... maximum amount of five thousand rupees', per Act) - verified; the agreement URLs both state ₹200/day capped at ₹10,000 combined.
These are the authority’s published lines. Which of them apply depends on your filing — a schedule by headcount, capital or entity type is one line, not all of them — and the applicable line is confirmed before payment, at cost.
