New GST Registration in India

New GST Registration is the process by which a business or individual obtains a GSTIN (Goods and Services Tax Identification Number) from the Government of India. This 15-digit unique identification number is mandatory for businesses that cross the prescribed turnover threshold, sell online, or deal in interstate supply of goods and services.

You can complete GST registration online entirely through the official GST portal at www.gst.gov.in — free of cost, without visiting any tax office.

GST Registration is mandatory for:

  • Businesses with annual turnover above ₹40 lakh (goods) or ₹20 lakh (services) — ₹10 lakh for special category states

  • Interstate suppliers of goods or services
  • Businesses that were registered under VAT, Service Tax, or Excise and have not migrated
  • Casual taxable persons and non-resident taxable persons

Is GST registration online free?

Yes, GST registration through the official portal (gst.gov.in) is completely free. There are no government charges for new GST registration.

How many days does it take to get a GSTIN?

 If Aadhaar authentication is completed, GSTIN is typically allotted within 3 working days. Without Aadhaar authentication, it may take up to 7 working days.

Can I apply for GST registration without a CA?

Yes, you can apply for new GST registration online yourself through the GST portal. The process is self-guided and does not require a CA or consultant.

What is the penalty for not registering under GST?

Non-registration despite being liable attracts a penalty of ₹10,000 or 10% of the tax due (whichever is higher). In cases of deliberate tax evasion, the penalty can be 100% of the tax amount.

Can I have multiple GSTINs?

Yes. A business operating in multiple states must obtain a separate GSTIN for each state. Additionally, a business can voluntarily register for a separate GSTIN for different business verticals within the same state.

 

Is Aadhaar authentication mandatory for GST registration?

Aadhaar authentication is not mandatory but strongly recommended. Without it, your application goes through physical verification, which delays approval by 4–7 additional days

Can I cancel my GST registration in Tamil Nadu?

Yes. If your turnover falls below the threshold or you shut down your business, you can apply for GST cancellation on the portal.
