what is gst

We have branches in five different states with same Service tax registration number as centralized billing, and were filing returns with the main office. The Aces website has generated different user ID's and Passwords for Different states. We are not able to register the branches in additional places of business on GST portal as the State is NON EDITABLE. Do we have to register separately for all the branches in GST portal? will there be different GSTIN for different states? Should we raise different invoices at different branches?

Dear Experts, Our office is shifting within Bangalore. The lease date on the agreement is 25-7-2017 but operations at the new office will start somewhere between 10 to 15 Aug,2017 until then we would continue to operate at our old office. The Karnataka Shops and Establishment Act 1962 section 5 reads that "any change in the information contained in the registration certificate must be communicated to the inspector within 15 days from the date the change has taken place." Having said that my doubt is, when should we intimate them on the change of address? and what is the complete procedure to obtain the S&E certificate for our new office? and would be they be considering the lease date or the effective date of operations to count 15 days from the date the change has taken place? and whether we should apply for a new S&E certificate or amend the old one? Kindly help thanks in advance

A Good article. We are small merchant exporters and do not pay excise duty to the manufacturer by submitting CT1 and ARE1. Along with other documents, we submit custom officer signed 1st and 2nd copy of ARE 1 to excise department and get the amount credited to our running bond account and obtain proof of export. We do not pay VAT on export and get form H from the department and give it to the factory. From your article, we get a feel that we shall be paying 18 % GST to the manufacturer at the time of taking out goods from the factory and claim refund afterwards. As a merchant exporter, we may have small credits on account of service provider. Our Question: What documents will need to be submitted to prove that consignment has been exported? How to claim refund against export and how much time this is going to take?
