What is GST Registration Online India?
Goods and Services Tax (GST) is India's unified indirect tax that replaced VAT, Service Tax, Excise, and other taxes from 1 July 2017. Under the CGST Act, 2017, businesses above certain turnover thresholds must mandatorily register and obtain a GSTIN (GST Identification Number).
A GSTIN is your business's tax identity — you need it to issue valid GST invoices, collect GST from customers, claim Input Tax Credit (ITC) from your purchases, and make inter-state supplies without restrictions.
Who Must Register for GST?
- Turnover Threshold (Goods): Businesses with aggregate turnover above ₹40 lakh per year (₹20L for North-Eastern & special category states).
- Service Providers: Service businesses with turnover above ₹20 lakh (₹10L for NE states).
- E-Commerce Sellers: All sellers on Amazon, Flipkart, Meesho, Nykaa etc. must register regardless of turnover.
- Inter-State Supplies: Any business making inter-state supply of goods — even if turnover is below threshold.
- Importers & Exporters: All import/export businesses must register for GST.
- Casual Taxable Persons: Businesses making occasional taxable supplies.
- Voluntary Registration: Any business can voluntarily register to claim ITC and improve credibility.
