Overview of GST Registration
Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a unified indirect tax system in India introduced to replace multiple local taxes like VAT, Service Tax, and Excise Duty. Obtaining a GSTIN (15 digit Goods and Services Tax Identification Number) gives your business legal recognition and allows you to collect tax from customers and claim credit on business expenses.
Who Needs GST Registration? (Turnover Limits & Eligibility)
GST registration is mandatory for businesses under the following criteria:
Goods Suppliers: Businesses selling goods with an annual turnover exceeding ₹40 Lakhs (₹20 Lakhs for special category northeastern states).
Service Providers: Businesses providing services with an annual turnover exceeding ₹20 Lakhs (₹10 Lakhs for special category states).
E-Commerce Sellers: Sellers listing products on platforms like Amazon, Flipkart, or custom e-commerce websites regardless of turnover.
Interstate Business Operators: Anyone selling goods or providing services across state borders.
Casual Taxable Persons and Non-Resident Taxpayers.
