As per sec62,a taxpayer who fails to file return can be assessed on the basis of best judgement and the order shall be issued within 5 year from the due date of filing annual return for which tax not paid.But now gst dept. is issuing best judgement assessment order in firm ASMT13 for the tax period 8/19.Is it correct ?

No , It is not correct . Department can not issue order within 5 years FROM the due date of Annual Return . Though , there is another point of view by some experts - from the due date is valid for ascertaining 5 years time limit .
In my view , this notice is not valid and can be challenged This issue has been very well explained in one of the you tube video by CA Kapil Jain of KJ Classes . Link for the video is being shared herewith :-

In another occasion the dept.issued admt14 u/s 63 to a taxpayer for 18-19 whose registration was cancelled w.e.f 1.6.18 u/ 29(2).The notice was issued for 1.4.18 to 31.3.19 though r.c was active for 2 months.Is the notice correct?
A taxable person , whose registration has been cancelled under sun-section (2) of section 29 but who was liable to pay tax, the proper officer may proceed to assess the tax liability of such taxable person to the best of his judgment FOR THE RELEVANT TAX PERIOD and issue an assessment order within a period of five years from the date specified under section 44 for furnishing of the annual return FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR to which the tax not paid relates:
