If you're trading equity shares and your turnover is approaching £50 lakhs, you might be wondering about GST. However, shares are not classified as 'goods' under GST regulations. Therefore, you do not need to register for GST or pay GST on your equity share transactions.

I have share trading account with ICICI direct securities and Zerodha. I have been buying and selling shares through my account with them from April this year. My turnover could be well near 50 lakhs during the financial year 20-21. The GST is charged by ICICI direct and Zerodha on all these transactions. But I want to know whether I too have to register with GST or not.
