It depends upon your state VAT act

If your client's turnover in the cement business is about ₹25 lakh and they are not registered under TIN (VAT), here’s what you should know about penalties and compliance:
### 1. **Mandatory VAT/TIN Registration Threshold**
* Most states mandate VAT registration if turnover exceeds a certain limit—usually ₹10 lakh or ₹20 lakh, but this varies by state.
* Since your client’s turnover is ₹25 lakh, they are **required** to register under VAT and obtain a TIN.
### 2. **Penalty for Non-Registration**
* Operating without VAT registration when mandatory can attract **penalties** under the respective State VAT Act.
* Penalties typically include:
* A **fixed penalty** (e.g., ₹10,000 or more) for non-registration.
* **Penalty equal to the amount of tax evaded** or **tax not paid**, which can be heavy.
* Interest on the delayed payment of tax.
* In some states, prosecution proceedings may also be initiated.
### 3. **Other Consequences**
* No input VAT credit can be claimed without registration.
* Business transactions with registered dealers can be difficult as they will insist on valid TIN for their compliance.
* Assessment and scrutiny by VAT authorities may be triggered, with retrospective tax demand and penalty.
### 4. **Recommended Action**
* Get registered **immediately** under the State VAT Act and obtain TIN.
* File **voluntary disclosure** or approach VAT authorities with the registration and offer to pay tax along with penalty and interest to reduce liability.
* Maintain proper VAT records and file returns timely to avoid further penalties.
