GST Registration

We handle your registration end to end. That means a free eligibility check, collecting and verifying your documents, accurately filing Form REG-01 (Parts A and B), guiding your Aadhaar authentication, routing you through the fastest eligible lane (Rule 14A / Rule 9A), tracking your application daily and responding to any officer queries. Once your 15-digit GSTIN and REG-06 certificate are issued, we hand over your credentials and brief you on your first return dates. You get a clean, invoice-ready registration without the back-and-forth.

GST registration enrolls your business under the Goods and Services Tax law and gives you a unique 15-digit GSTIN. Once registered, your business is legally recognised as a supplier, you can collect GST from customers, claim input tax credit on purchases and issue valid tax invoices that other registered businesses accept. GST came into effect on 1 July 2017, merging older taxes like VAT, service tax and excise into one system run on the GST portal at gst.gov.in, where every registration, return and payment happens online.

It depends on your turnover and what you sell. In Maharashtra, registration is mandatory once your aggregate turnover crosses ₹40 lakh for goods or ₹20 lakh for services. It’s also compulsory from your very first sale if you sell on e-commerce platforms, supply goods to other states, or fall under reverse charge or TCS/TDS rules, regardless of turnover. Below the threshold, it’s voluntary but often worthwhile. Tell us what you sell and we’ll confirm your exact position free of charge.

A GSTIN is your unique 15-digit Goods and Services Tax Identification Number. The first two digits are your state code (27 for Maharashtra), the next ten are your PAN and the rest are entity and check digits. It’s your legal tax identity, you need it to issue valid tax invoices, collect GST, claim input tax credit and appear credible to customers, vendors and banks. It’s printed on your registration certificate (Form REG-06) and stays with your business permanently.

The portal is free to use, but the process trips up most first-timers: a name mismatch with PAN, wrong jurisdiction, blurry document scans or an incorrect route can trigger a clarification notice (REG-03) and weeks of delay. We file it right the first time. Our pre-submission checks catch the exact mistakes that cause rejections, we choose the correct fast-track route and we manage officer queries for you. You get accuracy, speed and peace of mind instead of guesswork.

A GSTIN unlocks growth that unregistered businesses can’t access. You can claim input tax credit (ITC) to recover GST paid on stock, rent and services, sell on Amazon, Flipkart and Meesho, trade freely across India, win B2B and corporate clients who demand GST invoices and bid for tenders. It also strengthens loan applications, improves brand credibility and helps you avoid the penalty for operating without required registration. In short, it’s the foundation every serious business builds on.

Input tax credit is the GST you pay on business purchases: stock, raw materials, rent, software, services, which you set off against the GST you collect on sales. It prevents the old “tax on tax” cascade, so you effectively pay GST only on your value addition, directly lowering your real cost of doing business. To claim it you need valid invoices, the supplier must have reported and paid the tax and you must meet the conditions under Section 16 of the CGST Act. We set your invoicing up to capture it cleanly.

Yes, in fact, a valid GSTIN is mandatory before you can list a single product on Amazon, Flipkart, Meesho or similar marketplaces and this applies from your first sale regardless of turnover. If getting marketplace-ready is your goal, GST registration is step one. We register many local online sellers and can complete Aadhaar authentication the same day to route your application through the fast-track lane, so you don’t miss a listing deadline.

Significantly. Larger buyers insist on GST invoices so they can claim their own input credit, so without a GSTIN, you often simply don’t get the order. A registration also lets you bid for government and large private tenders that require it and makes you look more established than an unregistered competitor. Displaying a GSTIN on your invoices, website and storefront signals you’re a serious, compliant business, which builds trust across your whole customer and vendor base.

It often helps. Banks and NBFCs frequently ask for GST returns as proof of genuine, ongoing turnover when assessing a loan or credit line. A clean registration and a consistent filing record give lenders the documented trading history they look for. So beyond compliance, registration quietly builds the paper trail that supports future funding, tenders and larger supply relationships, one reason many below-threshold businesses register voluntarily.

It’s a documented, step-by-step process. We start with a free eligibility check to confirm you must register and identify your correct jurisdiction. We then collect and verify your documents, file Part A of REG-01 to generate your TRN, complete Part B with your business details and HSN/SAC codes, upload proofs in the correct format and guide your Aadhaar authentication. After signing via EVC or DSC, an ARN is generated and we track it daily until your GSTIN is granted, then hand over your certificate and a first-return briefing.

Registration happens in two stages within Form REG-01. In Part A we enter your legal name (exactly as per PAN), PAN, email and mobile and verify by OTP to generate a Temporary Reference Number (TRN). Using that TRN, Part B captures the detail, business constitution, principal and additional places of business, goods and services with HSN/SAC codes and bank details — followed by document uploads. Splitting it this way is standard; getting Part A’s PAN-name match exact is what prevents an early validation failure.

ARN stands for Application Reference Number. It’s generated in Form REG-02 the moment your GST application is successfully submitted and it’s how the application is tracked on the portal. We monitor your ARN daily and keep you updated at each stage, so you always know where your application stands and if the officer raises a query, we see it promptly and respond before the deadline rather than letting it stall.

Yes. The whole registration happens on the official GST portal, so you rarely need to go anywhere. We collect your documents digitally, file Form REG-01, guide your Aadhaar authentication remotely, track the application and hand over your GSTIN online. The only possible exception is biometric authentication if it’s specifically flagged, which is completed at a nearby GST Suvidha Kendra. Everything else is handled from wherever you are.

No, GST registration is paperless. On approval you receive a digital registration certificate, Form REG-06, downloadable from the portal, showing your GSTIN, legal name, principal place of business, jurisdiction and effective date. You can print and display it at your premises. We hand over the certificate along with your login credentials at the end, so you have everything you need to start invoicing and to reference the registration later.

Typically your PAN, Aadhaar, a passport-size photo, proof of business address (electricity bill, property tax receipt or rent agreement with NOC) and bank proof (cancelled cheque, passbook or statement). Entities also need constitution proof, a partnership deed, incorporation certificate or LLP agreement and companies and LLPs need a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC). The exact list depends on your business type, so we send you a tailored checklist and verify every document before upload to avoid rejections.

The address you enter on REG-01 must match documentary proof of the premises, commonly a recent electricity bill, property tax receipt or for rented premises, a rent/lease agreement together with the owner’s NOC. Very old utility bills or an address that doesn’t match its proof are among the top causes of clarification notices. We check that your address entry and proof line up exactly and that a rented premises has both the agreement and NOC, before we file.

Companies and LLPs must sign the application using a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC). Proprietors and partnership firms can use an Electronic Verification Code (EVC) via OTP instead, so they usually don’t need a DSC. We’ll tell you which applies to your structure and help arrange a DSC if your entity requires one, so signing doesn’t become a last-minute holdup at the submission stage.

For the fast 3-working-day route, yes. The primary authorised signatory and at least one promoter or partner complete OTP-based Aadhaar authentication, so your mobile number must be linked to your Aadhaar. If authentication is skipped or fails, your application moves to manual scrutiny and may require physical verification of your premises, which takes longer. If biometric verification is flagged, it’s done at a nearby GST Suvidha Kendra and we’ll point you to the closest one.

Aadhaar authentication uses an OTP sent to the mobile number linked to your Aadhaar, so if it isn’t linked, the OTP fails and authentication can’t complete which blocks the fast 3-day lane and can push you into manual scrutiny. It’s a common, avoidable snag. We flag this at the document stage so you can get your number linked before we file, keeping your application on the quick track rather than losing days to a failed OTP.

The government charges no fee to register on the GST portal, registration itself is free. You only pay a professional fee for accurate filing, document verification and query handling, which we disclose upfront with no hidden charges. GST at 18% applies to the professional fee itself, not to your registration. Our professional fee for GST registration is `[Customize this answer]`. Share your business details and we’ll give you a clear, all-inclusive quote before any work begins.

No. Our pricing is transparent, you’ll know the professional fee before we start and there are no surprise add-ons. Regular GST registration is a one-time cost with no renewal fee, since it stays valid until you cancel it. The only ongoing costs relate to return filing after you’re registered, which is a separate service we can also handle. If your case needs anything beyond standard registration, say a DSC for a company, we’ll tell you clearly in advance.

Often, yes. Even below the threshold, voluntary registration lets you claim input tax credit, bill corporate clients with valid GST invoices, sell on e-commerce platforms and look more credible to customers and lenders, while laying the foundation for growth. The trade-off is that once registered you must file returns (even nil ones) and follow all GST rules. We’ll assess your customer mix and plans honestly and tell you whether voluntary registration genuinely pays off for you.

For low-risk applicants under the simplified Rule 14A or auto-approval Rule 9A, the GSTIN can be granted electronically within 3 working days of Aadhaar authentication. A standard application without physical verification usually takes around 7 working days. If the officer orders premises verification, it can extend to up to 30 working days. Most clean applications in Vasai-Virar are approved within 3 to 7 working days and clean, accurate filing is exactly what we specialise in.

The single biggest cause of delay is a clarification notice triggered by mismatched details, a name that doesn’t match PAN, an address that doesn’t match its proof, blurry scans, or the wrong jurisdiction. Missing rent agreements, NOCs or a mobile not linked to Aadhaar also stall applications. Our pre-submission checks are designed specifically to catch these before filing, so your application moves through the fast lane instead of landing in manual review.
