What is GST Registration?
GST (Goods and Services Tax) is a single indirect tax that replaced multiple taxes like VAT, Service Tax, and Excise Duty. If your business crosses a certain turnover limit or deals in interstate sales, registering under GST is mandatory.
After registration, you get a unique GSTIN (Goods and Services Tax Identification Number) which you must mention on your invoices, receipts, and returns.
