GST Registration
Registration under the Goods and Services Tax lets a business collect GST on its sales, issue tax invoices and claim credit for the GST it pays on purchases. Once registered, the business receives a GSTIN and a registration certificate in Form GST REG-06.
Input tax credit
GST paid on business purchases can be set off against the GST you collect on sales.
Credit for your customers
Registered business buyers can claim input tax credit on your invoices, which many require before they buy.
Sell across India
Inter-state supply of goods and selling through e-commerce platforms both need GST registration.
Legal tax invoices
Only a registered person can charge GST and issue a valid tax invoice.
Composition option
Smaller businesses can opt for the composition scheme: turnover up to ₹1.5 crore for goods (₹75 lakh in special category states) or ₹50 lakh for services.
Voluntary registration
A business below the limit can still register voluntarily to gain these benefits.
Keep in mind
- Once registered, GST returns must be filed for every period, including nil returns when there is no business.
- The registration certificate must be displayed at every place of business, and the GSTIN on the name board at the entrance.
- Under the composition scheme you cannot claim input tax credit, charge GST on invoices, or make inter-state supplies.

Udyam (MSME) Registration
Udyam registration is the government’s registration for micro, small and medium enterprises. It is free, paperless and based on self-declaration, and gives the enterprise a permanent Udyam Registration Number (URN) and an e-certificate.
Protection against delayed payment
For micro and small suppliers, buyers must pay within the agreed period, and in any case within 45 days of acceptance; late payment attracts compound interest at three times the RBI bank rate.
MSME Samadhaan
Micro and small enterprises can file delayed-payment cases online on the MSME Samadhaan portal.
Collateral-free credit
Micro and small enterprises are eligible for loans covered by the CGTMSE credit guarantee scheme.
Government tenders
Under the public procurement policy, micro and small enterprises get a share of central purchases and exemption from earnest money deposit in many tenders.
Priority sector lending
Loans to registered MSMEs fall under the RBI’s priority sector lending norms.
Proof of business
The Udyam certificate is accepted by banks as a business proof when a proprietorship opens a current account.
Keep in mind
- Registration is free on the official portal (udyamregistration.gov.in); be wary of look-alike sites that charge for it.
- Several benefits, including the 45-day payment protection, apply to micro and small enterprises, not to medium.
- Udyam registration does not replace GST registration or any trade licence your business needs.

Self-attested copies, scanned clearly. We confirm the final checklist for your case.

GST & Udyam, Answered
Straight answers to what business owners ask before they register.
Not usually. Registration becomes compulsory once aggregate turnover crosses ₹40 lakh for businesses supplying only goods within the state, or ₹20 lakh for services, with lower limits in Manipur, Mizoram, Nagaland and Tripura. Some businesses must register regardless of turnover, such as those making inter-state supplies of goods or selling through e-commerce platforms. You may also register voluntarily, for example when your business customers want to claim input tax credit on your invoices.
No. Neither the GST portal nor the Udyam portal charges a fee for registration. The official Udyam portal also warns that registration is free and that no private agency is authorised to issue Udyam certificates. When you work with us, we prepare and file the application on the official portal with you, and the certificate is issued by the government.
No documents are uploaded. Registration is based on self-declaration with the Aadhaar of the proprietor, managing partner, karta or authorised signatory, and the PAN of the enterprise; investment and turnover figures are taken from income-tax and GST records. Keep your bank details, business activity, employee count and investment in plant, machinery or equipment ready.
No. A Udyam registration does not need renewal. You update your details on the portal when they change, and the enterprise’s classification as micro, small or medium is updated using the turnover and investment data from income-tax and GST records.
