11 July 2025 Dear Sir/Madam,

I have received a notice under ASMT-14 regarding obtaining GST registration. I would like to clarify my situation and seek your guidance:

I am engaged in selling vegetables in the local market without owning or operating a shop. My total turnover has crossed ₹40 lakhs, but since the sales are entirely B2C (Business-to-Consumer) and pertain to exempt goods (fruits and vegetables), I was under the impression that GST registration may not be mandatory in my case.

Additionally, I have not filed Income Tax Returns (ITRs), do not issue tax invoices, and do not have a rental or lease agreement for any premises.

Kindly advise:

Whether GST registration is mandatory in this case.

What steps I should take in response to the ASMT-14 notice.

Any possible compliance or regularization process I need to follow.
