GST Registration: How it can be obtained with the help of AADHAR Card

Our Hon’ble Prime Minister, i.e. Mr. Narendra Modi, started a new taxation era by launching the Goods and Service Tax (GST) model in India. It was an attempt to administer prices all over the country and also to remove both the central and state government taxes imposed on the goods and services. Further, all the indirect taxes imposed were removed by beginning a new epoch of GST registration.

According to the newly started GST regulation, all the businesses whose annual turnover exceeds the threshold of rupees twenty lakhs are needed to get their registration for Goods and Service Tax (GST) done like a normal taxable person. Further, the maximum threshold for mandatory registration is reduced to ten lakhs for both the North-Eastern and hilly states. Lastly, the procedure for apply to GST Registration.

Besides the prescribed bracket for annual turnover, there are certain cases the businesses must apply for GST registration. These businesses are those which are mainly engaged in some supply of some specific goods and services. Further, an individual can apply for GST registration of his business either as a normal taxable person or under the GST Composition Scheme.

The name Goods and Service Tax (GST) itself declares that it will apply to both the goods and services. Further, this model acts as a dual system, as it works for keeping both the state and central government independent of each other. Lastly, the GST council is chaired by the Union Finance Minister, and it also includes State Finance Ministers.
