GST Registration
Mandatory indirect tax registration under the CGST Act, 2017. Required for businesses exceeding turnover thresholds (₹20L/₹40L), e-commerce sellers, and inter-state suppliers. We ensure error-free filing to prevent arbitrary rejections by jurisdictional officers.
Key benefits
- Legal Authorization: Legally collect GST from customers and pass on Input Tax Credit (ITC) to B2B clients.
- E-commerce Eligibility: Mandatory for selling on platforms like Amazon, Flipkart, Myntra, or Swiggy.
- Inter-state Trade: Allows you to legally sell goods across state borders.
- Input Tax Credit (ITC): Claim set-offs on the GST you pay on business purchases (computers, office rent, raw materials), heavily reducing your cost of operations.
- Current Account: Banks universally accept a GST certificate as the primary proof of business for opening a current account.

Frequently asked questions
What is the turnover limit for mandatory registration?
For services: ₹20 Lakhs. For exclusively selling goods: ₹40 Lakhs (in most states). For Special Category States (like North East India), the limits are ₹10L and ₹20L respectively.
I am starting an e-commerce business. Do I need GST immediately?
Yes. Section 24 of the CGST Act mandates compulsory registration for anyone selling goods through an e-commerce operator, regardless of turnover.
Can the GST officer physically verify my office?
Yes. If Aadhaar authentication fails or is opted out, physical verification is mandatory. Even with Aadhaar authentication, officers sometimes conduct surprise visits if the address looks suspicious (e.g., a virtual office).
Can I have multiple GSTINs in the same state?
Yes. You can obtain separate registrations for different business verticals operating within the same state.
What is the penalty for not registering?
100% of the tax due or ₹10,000, whichever is higher, plus confiscation of goods.
