What is GST?

Goods and Services Tax or GST is an indirect tax that was rolled out on July 1, 2017. It is levied on the supply of goods and services across the country. It has brought about a uniformity in the indirect tax structure by replacing all the indirect taxes that existed in the pre-GST regime such as VAT, service tax, Excise duty, etc. Simply put, GST has incorporated the concept of "One nation One Tax."

GST Registration Online

Some important facts…


Registration of any business entity under the GST Law implies obtaining a unique number from the concerned tax authorities for the purpose of collecting tax on behalf of the government and to avail Input Tax Credit (ITC) for the taxes on his inward supplies.

Without registration, a person can neither collect tax from his customers nor claim any credit of tax paid by him.

Entities with an annual turnover of 20 lakhs INR (10 lakhs INR in case of north-eastern states) and above would be required to register under GST.

The eligible entities must file GST application within 30 days from the date on which the entity became liable for registration under GST law.
