GST, or Goods and Services Tax, is an indirect tax in India applied to the sale of goods and services. It covers most indirect taxes and is charged at every stage of production, but only the final consumer ends up paying it. Each business in the supply chain gets credit for the tax paid on their purchases.

An origin-based tax, or production tax, is charged where services or products are made.

Goods and services are grouped into five tax rates: 0%, 5%, 12%, 18%, and 28%.

If you delay filing your GST return, you’ll be fined Rs. 200 per day. There is no late fee for IGST.

If you don’t file your GST return, the penalty is either 10% of the unpaid tax or Rs. 10,000, whichever comes first.

If you commit fraud, the penalty will be either 100% of the unpaid tax or Rs. 10,000, whichever comes first.

The Composition Scheme under GST makes things easier for taxpayers by allowing them to pay GST at a fixed rate based on their turnover, avoiding complex procedures. Taxpayers with revenue under Rs. 1 crore can choose this scheme. Recently, the CBIC increased the limit to Rs. 1.5 crores, and for North Eastern states and Himachal Pradesh, it is now Rs. 75 lakhs. The GST rate for manufacturers and traders under this scheme is just 1% of their annual turnover.

If your business sells goods and your turnover goes over 40 lakhs, or if you're a service provider and your earnings exceed 20 lakhs, or if you’re in a special category state and your revenue is more than 10 lakhs, you need to register for GST.

If you need to register for GST, you must apply within 30 days from the day you become required to register.

For general and casual taxpayers under GST, having a PAN (Permanent Account Number) is required.

If a business operates in different states, it needs to register for GST in each state where it provides goods or services.

Once you get your GST certificate, it stays valid until you cancel or suspend it. However, certificates for non-resident and casual taxable persons have a limited validity period.

A casual taxable person is someone who occasionally does business in a place where they don’t have a permanent location.

If someone lives outside India and only does business in India from time to time without having a permanent office or location there, they are considered a non-resident taxable person.

Under GST, you can only have one registration per PAN. However, if your business operates in more than one state, you need a separate GST number for each state. If your business has different divisions within the same state, each division needs its own registration.

Businesses need GST registration if their turnover exceeds Rs. 20 lakh, except in the northeastern states of India. In Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Meghalaya, Manipur, Mizoram, Nagaland, and Tripura, the limit is Rs. 10 lakh. This limit applies only if the business operates within its own state. If a business trades with other states, it must get GST registration no matter how much it earns.

If you run your business from home, you can use your home address for GST registration. You just need to provide proof of your address, like an electricity bill, a no-objection certificate (NOC), a sale deed, or a rental agreement.

A Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) is needed for private limited companies, LLPs, and similar entities. However, for proprietorships and partnership firms, a DSC is not required.

Yes, you need a personal savings or current account. If you're starting a new business and only have a personal savings account, you can use it for now. After your GST registration is complete, you can then apply for a current account based on your GST certificate.

After getting GST registration, you need to issue GST invoices to your customers every month and charge them the correct GST amount. At the end of each month, you’ll have to pay the taxes online.

If you don't provide the correct documents when you submit your registration, the officer in charge will reject your application. You'll need to apply again with the right documents.

We need either a copy of your electricity bill or a letter from your landlord if you’re renting. We’ll provide the letter format during the registration process.

You can send your documents via email or WhatsApp. Don’t worry—we keep everything confidential and won’t share your documents with anyone.

Starting January 1, 2021, a new scheme called Quarterly Returns with Monthly Payments (QRMP) will be introduced based on GST Council's recommendations.

With this scheme, if your total annual turnover is up to Rs. 5 Crores for the current and previous year, you can choose to file your returns (Form GSTR-1 and Form GSTR-3B) every three months. For the first two months of each quarter, you'll just need to make a simple payment using a challan.
