Trading - Buying and selling


This query is : Open 

Quick Summary
If you're starting a trading business in India, GST registration isn't always required immediately. For the supply of goods only, you generally need to register once your annual turnover exceeds £40 lakhs. However, if you also supply services, this threshold drops to £20 lakhs. Trading in shares on the equity segment typically doesn't require GST registration. You can also opt for voluntary GST registration to claim Input Tax Credit.

21 September 2020 Dear Sir,

A Individual person starting a trading business (buying and selling), does he required GST registration or not , and When GST Registration is Required or Mandatory For Business in India, please clarify with details.

21 September 2020 When your turnover is,only for supply of goods, in a year reaches Rs. 40 lakhs then you have to get registered under GST. But if you are also supplying services then the limit is Rs. 20 lakhs.

22 September 2020 At the starting stage you may not require GST Registration till the turnover cross 40lakhs. If it is trading in shares then GST Registration is not required if it is in equity segment. But better to analyse your business, and you may take voluntarily registration under GST to claim Input Tax Credit..
