  1. Goods and Services Tax (GST) Registration Guide Goods and Services Tax (GST) Registration Guide Goods and Services Tax is one of the biggest tax reforms India ever witnessed that has improved the ease of doing business tremendously and has also increased the taxpayer base in the country by adding several small businesses. The complexities involved in the earlier tax regime have been reduced due to the elimination and subsuming of various taxes into one simple and single system. The new tax regime makes it mandatory that all the business entities which are involved in the process of buying or selling goods as well as providing services need to register for GST and obtain Goods and Services Taxpayer Identification Number (GSTIN). GST registration is compulsory once the business crosses the minimum threshold or when any individual commences a new business that is likely to cross the prescribed minimum threshold turnover. In the new tax regime, businesses whose sale of goods are more than INR 40 lakhs (INR 20 Lakhs for Special category states) and sale of services are more than INR 20 lakhs (INR 10 Lakhs for special category states) are required to register themselves as a taxable person. This entire process of registration is known as GST registration. Special category states are Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Jammu and Kashmir, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim, Tripura, Himachal Pradesh, and Uttarakhand For specific businesses, GST registration is mandatory irrespective of the threshold. If an organization carries on its business without getting registered under the GST regime or violates the provisions laid down under the governing GST laws, it will be construed as an offense under the GST law and heavy penalties would apply. Who Should compulsorily Register for GST? •Businesses that were registered under Pre-GST law such as VAT,Service Tax, Excise, etc. •Individuals with turnover exceeding the threshold limit of INR 40 Lakhs (INR 10 Lakhs for North East States, Himachal Pradesh, J&K, and Uttarakhand) •Non-Resident taxable person •Casual taxable person
