If your Aggregate turnover is below limit but you are providing inter state supply then registration is compulsory.

thanks for your reply on forum
I am resident of delhi.
DO I still need to apply for gst if I get clients from freelancing websites such as upwork, freelancer ,fiverr.

even if i only provide my services to delhi base clients

the payment will be from upwork

as upwork handles the payment

thanks
