When does a business need GST registration?
GST is a tax on the supply of goods and services. A business that must register collects GST from customers and pays it to the government. It can also claim credit for GST paid on purchases. Whether you must register depends on what you sell, where you sell and how much you sell.
Some businesses must register once their yearly turnover crosses a limit. The limit differs by type of supply and by state, and it can change, so always check the current limit. Other businesses, such as many online marketplace sellers or sellers of goods to other states, may need to register whatever their turnover. Exceptions exist.
A small business that is below the limit may still choose to register. This can help when business customers want GST invoices. It also adds duties, such as regular returns, so think about it with a chartered accountant.
Before you apply, keep your PAN, Aadhaar, address proof and bank details ready. Approval cannot be guaranteed, and the process varies.
