What this filing does

GST Registration

GST registration gives you a 15-digit GSTIN — the number that lets you charge GST on your invoices, claim back the GST you pay on business purchases, and trade legally above the turnover thresholds. Registration is required once your yearly turnover crosses ₹40 lakh for goods or ₹20 lakh for services (₹10 lakh in the north-eastern and hill states), and immediately if you sell across state borders or through e-commerce platforms.

Overview

What this filing does

GST registration gives you a 15-digit GSTIN — the number that lets you charge GST on your invoices, claim back the GST you pay on business purchases, and trade legally above the turnover thresholds. Registration is required once your yearly turnover crosses ₹40 lakh for goods or ₹20 lakh for services (₹10 lakh in the north-eastern and hill states), and immediately if you sell across state borders or through e-commerce platforms.

The GST application (Form REG-01) is filed on the GST portal, the Aadhaar verification step is completed, and any clarifications from the officer are handled until the GSTIN is issued.

When you need this

Common reasons founders engage this

  • Your yearly turnover is approaching the threshold (₹40 lakh for goods, ₹20 lakh for services).
  • You sell across state borders — even one invoice across state lines triggers mandatory registration.
  • You sell through Amazon, Flipkart, Zomato, Swiggy, or any other e-commerce platform.
  • You need to deduct or collect GST under TDS or TCS, or where GST is your customer's job to pay.
  • A corporate buyer is asking for a GST invoice before they will work with you.
From your side

Documents you will need to send

Most of these can be scanned or photographed from your phone. Everything required is listed in the checklist sent the same day, so nothing is collected later as a surprise.

  • PAN of the business (or of the proprietor for a sole proprietorship).
  • Aadhaar of the person who'll sign for the business (used for OTP verification).
  • Recent photo of the person who'll sign for the business.
  • Proof of business address — a utility bill plus rent agreement or No-Objection letter.
  • Bank account details — a cancelled cheque or a bank statement.
  • Description of the business activity (the HSN or SAC codes are picked together).
Step by step

How it works

  1. 01.

    Briefing and engagement

    Day 1

    Your turnover, business activity, and the right HSN or SAC codes are confirmed. The document checklist arrives the same day.

  2. 02.

    Application filed and Aadhaar verified

    Day 2

    The GST application (Form REG-01) is filed on the GST portal. The Aadhaar verification step is completed in-browser through an OTP — it takes a few minutes for the person who'll sign for the business.

  3. 03.

    Officer review

    Day 3–7

    The GST officer reviews the application. Most are approved without query within 5 working days. If clarifications are asked, the response goes back within 24 hours.

  4. 04.

    GSTIN issued

    Day 5–10

    The GSTIN is issued and the registration certificate is downloadable from the portal. It lands in your dashboard along with a short guide on the monthly returns and their due dates.
