adding partners in gst registration

YES

Hey,

Yes, if you're registering a partnership firm under GST, it's mandatory to add all the partners listed in the partnership deed in your GST application. Here's how it works:

What the rules say:

When you apply for GST registration for a partnership firm, the names and details of all partners mentioned in the Partnership Deed must be provided in the application under the “Authorised Signatories” and “Partner/Promoter Details” section.

Who signs and manages GST filings?

• You’ll still need to nominate one partner as the Primary Authorized Signatory, who will handle all GST-related filings, OTP verifications, and communication with the GST department.

• But that doesn’t mean other partners are ignored — their basic KYC (PAN, Aadhaar, photo, etc.) still has to be uploaded at the time of registration.
  
  

Why it’s important:

The GST portal treats this as a compliance and transparency requirement. Since a partnership firm isn't a separate legal entity like a company, the partners are jointly and severally liable for its actions. So naturally, GST registration requires full disclosure.

What not to do:

• Don't try to skip partners from the deed or provide incorrect info — it can lead to registration rejection or issues later during assessments, audits, or amendments.

TL;DR:

• Yes, you must include all partners mentioned in the partnership deed while registering for GST. 

• One partner will act as the Authorized Signatory, but details of all others are mandatory too.

Hope this clears it up! If still confused, feel free to consult a GST expert such as Setindiabiz or any other similar name to get professional advice and assistance too. Let me know if you need help with the actual process or portal steps.
