Query-wise reply is as under:-

1. Yes.

2. When you surrender registration certificate on Common Portal System, it will not be cancelled immediately. No timeline is fixed for cancellation by the Govt. After filing of all returns, after completion of audit and after clearing all the dues the Department will consider about cancellation of registration certificate. After the surrender, the assessee will be free from performing all the legal formalities i.e. filing of returns etc. but the account on common portal will remain open for filing returns.Time will be given for filing returns. Three months for filing final return and during this period Annual Returns can also be filed by four companies A, B, C, D..

3. No. After surrender of registration, GSTR-1 and GSTR 3B returns are not required to be filed.

4. Yes, as per Section 45 of CGST Act. GSTR 10 is to be filed within three moths from the date of cancellation or date of order of cancellation, whichever is earlier.

5.No. The Principal manufacturer is responsible for goods (inputs/semi-finished goods) sent to job workers.

6. Yes. As per Section 18(3) of CGST Act read with Rule 41(1) of CGST Rules, 2017
