GST Registration

GST Registration in India – Everything You Need to Know 

Goods and Services Tax (GST) is India’s unified indirect tax system, introduced on 1 July 2017 to replace a complex mix of VAT, Service Tax, Excise Duty, and other state-level levies. For businesses, GST registration isn’t just a legal formality — it’s your gateway to tax compliance, credibility, and nationwide operations.

If your business exceeds the prescribed turnover limit or falls under specific categories, GST registration is mandatory. Without it, you cannot legally collect GST from customers or claim Input Tax Credit (ITC).

With Advoxpert, the process becomes simple, transparent, and stress-free — from documentation to final GSTIN allotment.

Who Should Register for GST? (Eligibility)

You must register under GST if you fall into any of these categories:

✓ Businesses exceeding turnover threshold: ₹40 lakh (goods) or ₹20 lakh (services) annually

✓ Inter-state suppliers of goods or services

✓ E-commerce sellers or aggregators

✓ Casual taxable persons operating temporarily in another state

✓ Non-resident taxable persons doing business in India

✓ Businesses covered under the Reverse Charge Mechanism

Types of GST Registration

1. Normal Taxpayer – Standard GST registration for regular businesses

2. Composition Scheme – For small businesses with turnover up to ₹1.5 crore; pay lower taxes, but no ITC available

4. Non-Resident Taxable Person – For foreign businesses operating in India
