New Rule 14A outlines eligibility for GST registration, primarily targeting B2B suppliers and small service providers with low turnover. It excludes entities with a history of evasion. Crucially, businesses solely engaged in B2C supplies are not eligible for registration under this rule due to higher perceived risks associated with cash dealings and potential evasion.
