This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether a proprietorship or partnership can operate as a division of a private limited company. The consensus is that if M/s. XYZ Facility Management Services is indeed a division and not a separate entity, then it's permissible. This means a private limited company can invoice through such a division, even if the GSTIN belongs to the parent private limited company, provided they are the same entity.
