I have applied a new GST registration of Public Company and status of ARN showing rejected.
The reason for rejection is 'Board resolution was not signed by all the directors'.

In this regard I would like to know that whether board resolution has to be signed by all the director or not. Please reply whether the rejection query is valid or not.

The company having 9 directors and it is not possible in the pandemic to sign the board resolution by all the 9 directors.

Quick Summary

A public company's GST registration application was rejected because the board resolution wasn't signed by all directors. The applicant questions if this is a valid reason, especially with nine directors and pandemic challenges. The advice given is to meet the Jurisdiction Tax Officer, who may understand the situation and issue the GST number, confirming that the resolution should indeed be signed by all directors.
