Lenin's NEP never did lead to communism. In fact, the NEP was a controversial return to capitalism in the areas of agriculture and small businesses. In that respect, it was a retreat from socialism and the anticipated march toward communism. Lenin introduced it as a temporary measure to bolster a failing economy, which threatened to lead to another revolution which would have swept him and the Bolsheviks out of power for exactly the same reasons the Tsar and then the Provisional Government were swept out of power.
It is possible that Stalin could have continued it and industrialized under it, but it was too hard already under his current Communist regime. The NEP and its underlying capitalist values just could not let Stalin's power remain as effective.

Stalin scrapped Lenin's New Economic Policy (NEP) in favor of his own Five Year Plans. Stalin and other hardline Marxist/Communists felt that Lenin's NEP was a retreat from the move from capitalism to socialism and were angered over it. The NEP was kept in place by Stalin and his co-rulers after Lenin's death until 1929 when Stalin had eliminated his opposition and became the sole power in the Soviet Union. That is when he replaced the NEP with his own program for economic recovery.
