Quick Summary

A salaried employee planning to undertake consultancy work in the future is seeking guidance on whether they can obtain GST registration in their individual name. The response confirms that GST registration for consultancy is possible if the turnover exceeds 20 lakhs. However, it advises checking if the current employment contract prohibits owning a business and suggests proceeding only if there's no objection from the employer.

19 March 2020 But when you join the company as an employee, you might have signed a declaration that you don't own any business .. If there is no objection from company then you may apply for GST registration
