Introduction
The process for New Registration under GST in the GST portal comprises of Part A and Part B.
We have familiarized you with Part A of the process. In our previous blog, we took you through the first 3 pages of Part B of the New GST Registration online form – Business Details, Promoters / Partners & Authorized Signatory. If you recollect, completing these 3 pages (out of the 9) itself accounts for 99% of the form completion process for new registration under GST.
 

Introduction

GSTIN (Goods and Services Tax Identification Number) is the identification number given to every person registered under GST. In your business dealings, especially with new suppliers, you may want to verify GSTIN quoted by your supplier. Under GST, as your input credit depends upon your supplier’s compliance, it is important to ensure that the GSTIN quoted by your supplier is genuine. End consumers may also face situations where they doubt the correctness of the GSTIN quoted in a supplier’s invoice and would like to verify the details.

Introduction
In our previous blog, we guided you through the remaining 6 pages of Part B of the New Registration form, GS REG-01. You now need to complete the verification process and submit the form. Once the form is submitted, you must keep track of your application status. If all the documents submitted by you are correct, you will successfully complete your new GST registration process and get your business registered quickly!

This means that even if their turnover crosses Rs. 10 Lakhs/20 Lakhs, as applicable, these persons do not have to register under GST.
