If the company has opted for quarterly returns and has not yet filed its final return for the quarter ending December, it may be necessary to wait until the return has been filed before cancelling the GSTN. In this case, the appropriate date for cancellation may be after the GSTR-3B return has been filed and the quarterly GSTR-2B has been generated.

Which date should be mentioned as date of cancellation, so that no returns are required to be filed January onwards: 31st December, 1st January or 14th January?

If last working was on 31st December. Use cancellation date as 31st December so that January month returns are not needed to be filed otherwise you will require to file Jan returns in Feb also
