The commissioner is empowered to certify to the secretary of state the name of any taxpayer that fails or refuses to file any statement or franchise and excise tax return required by parts 20 or 21 of this chapter, or to pay any fee or tax required by this chapter; however, no certification shall be issued until such statement, return, or tax has remained delinquent for a period of ninety (90) days.
At the time of such certification to the secretary of state, the commissioner shall give notice to the taxpayer of the action taken. Thereupon, the charter, certificate of such taxpayer or its domestication in Tennessee shall stand as automatically dissolved or revoked, and the secretary of state shall note such revocation or dissolution upon the secretary of state's records.
At any time after the date of revocation or dissolution, such charter, or certificate or domestication may be reinstated upon the filing of all reports and the payment of all fees, taxes, penalty and interest due the state; provided, that the title has not been taken by another taxpayer.
