Hi Everyone,
I’m Harmandeep Singh Kandhari from India, A Health and Wellness Motivator and Now, I run a small service-based business and my annual turnover is close to the GST threshold limit. I want to understand whether GST registration becomes mandatory immediately after crossing the limit and how tax should be charged on invoices issued during the transition period. Could someone explain the correct procedure?
Regards,
Harmandeep Singh Kandhari
You must apply for GST within 30 days of crossing the ₹20 lakh turnover mark. Once registered, you can issue revised invoices to collect tax for services provided during the application period.
Thankyou Ashok FC Advisory!! For your valueable reply.
Thanks,

For service providers, GST registration is mandatory only when aggregate turnover crosses ₹20 lakh in a financial year (₹10 lakh in special category states like Uttarakhand and the North-East).
However, if you make any inter-state supply of services, even a single invoice to a client in another state, registration is compulsory regardless of turnover. Voluntary registration is worth considering if your clients are GST-registered businesses, as it allows them to claim input tax credit on your invoices
