GST REGISTRATION

GST Registration in India:

​

Goods and Services Tax (GST) registration in India is mandatory for businesses with an annual turnover exceeding the threshold limit (₹40 lakh for most states, ₹20 lakh for special category states). GST registration grants a unique GST Identification Number (GSTIN) to the business, enabling it to collect tax from customers and claim input tax credit on purchases. The registration process is primarily conducted online through the GST portal.

​

Supporting Documents for GST Registration:

​

1. PAN Card of the Business/Owner: Essential for the primary identification of the business or individual.

2. Proof of Business Registration or Incorporation Certificate: Required to verify the legal existence of the business.

3. Identity and Address Proof of Promoters/Directors with Photographs: Documents like Aadhar card, passport, driving license, or voter ID.

4. Address Proof of Business: Documents such as electricity bill, rent agreement, or property tax receipt.

5. Bank Account Proof: A canceled cheque, bank statement, or passbook’s first page.

6. Digital Signature Certificate (DSC): Necessary for companies and LLPs to sign the application digitally.

7. Letter of Authorization/Board Resolution: Applicable if an authorized signatory files the application on behalf of the company.

The GST registration process involves submitting these documents online, verifying details, and receiving the GSTIN once approved. It ensures legal compliance, enhances business credibility, and allows for smooth tax operations.
