When registering for GST and logging into the portal for the first time, selecting the correct core business activity is crucial. For those creating and selling handmade products on platforms like Amazon, the key decision is between 'manufacturing' and 'trading'. Given that you are actively making the products yourself, 'manufacturing' is the recommended core activity, even if you primarily sell through e-commerce channels.

I need to select my core business activity after first time login on gst portal. I'm making handmade products to sell on amazon
Should I pick core activity as manufacturing or trading? Under nature of business activities I've already updated as retail during registration as I'm mainly going to be selling my products on ecommerce portals.
