The prerequisites for submitting Form GSTR-10 are listed below:

1. On the GST portal, taxpayers must have a current User ID and password.

2. Taxpayers ought to have requested the cancellation of their registration, and a cancellation order ought to have been given.

3. An order for cancellation of registration should be issued in the event that tax authorities "suo moto" cancel registration.

Tables 8A, 8B, and 8C list those who have invoices.

Filling table 8D

Update the information in table 8D, which contains information on items without invoices, in the same manner as described above for changing tables 8A, 8B, and 8C. Next, select "Save." Here, a taxpayer must update the type of goods, description of items, total quantity, and taxable value rather than the invoice details.

The available balance in the cash and credit ledger will be displayed upon clicking the tile. 

There are now two scenarios that could occur:

Case 1: The amount needed to cover the liabilities is less than the available balance in the cash/credit ledger:

In this scenario, a taxpayer can make a portion of the payment by utilising the cash/credit ledger's available balance and the rest portion by selecting "Create Challan." He has the following three payment options:

Online banking

Case 2 of the over-the-counter NEFT/RTGS: The available balance in the cash/credit ledger is greater than or equal to the sum necessary to offset the liabilities
