GST registration gives your business a GSTIN — the identity you need to collect tax, claim input credit and sell legally across India. For startups and online sellers it's usually the very first compliance step, and getting it right avoids problems at funding, audit and marketplace onboarding later.
Who needs GST registration
- Businesses past the turnover threshold — ₹40 lakh for goods, ₹20 lakh for services in most states (₹10–20 lakh in special-category states).
- Anyone selling through e-commerce marketplaces such as Amazon, Flipkart or Meesho — mandatory regardless of turnover.
- Businesses making inter-state taxable supplies.
- Freelancers and consultants billing clients in other states or abroad.
- Anyone registering voluntarily to issue compliant invoices and claim input tax credit.
Documents required
- PAN of the business and of the proprietor / partners / directors
- Aadhaar of the authorised signatory
- Proof of business address — electricity bill, rent agreement or NOC
- Bank account proof — cancelled cheque or bank statement
- Passport-size photograph of the signatory
- Incorporation certificate / partnership deed, where applicable
How the process works
We keep it to four steps and handle the portal work end to end.
| Step | What happens |
|---|---|
| 1. Document check | We collect your documents and flag anything missing before filing — the most common cause of rejection. |
| 2. Application | We file your application on the GST portal and complete Aadhaar authentication. |
| 3. Clarifications | If the officer raises a query, we draft and submit the response on your behalf. |
| 4. GSTIN issued | You receive your GST certificate and GSTIN, ready to use. |
Timeline & cost
With complete documents, registration is typically granted within 7 working days. Government fee is nil — our professional fee is quoted upfront on a quick call, scoped to your business type. Monthly return filing is available on a fixed retainer — ask us for a quote.
What happens after registration
A GSTIN is the start, not the finish. You'll have monthly or quarterly returns (GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B), annual returns where applicable, and reconciliation of input credit. We handle all of it, with a tracker so you always know what's filed and what's coming up.
