If your aggregate turnover from supply of goods and services all over India under same PAN is not more than Rs.20 lacs you are not required to get registered under GST. Pl refer brochure:

The aggregate turnover to register is Rs 20.00 lakhs. It is option to you to Register in GST as your turnover is less than Rs 20.00 lakhs. But the Service receiver has to pay the GST for the service received from you as you are unregistered person.

As your turnover is 18.50 lakhs it will reach easily Rs 20.00 lakhs. You can get registeration voluntry. The unregistered person can not supply the goods or service to inter State.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Now my employer is asking for GST number along with invoice. If I register for GST and the 18% for GST should be paid to the Goverment from my payment ? I am alraedy paying 10% TDS from my salary and its deducted by employer.

Please clarify the below points if I understood the GST clearly or not.

After registering the GST for my perofessional service, Can I invoice 18% GST to employer. Like below

Descripttion of Services	HSN CODE	Amount


Professional Services for Month of July		100000


Total		100000

Less Discount		0

Taxable Value		100000

ADD CGST 9%	9%	9000

ADD SGST 9%	9%	9000














Total		118000.00

So total amount should be paid to me by my employer is Rs.118000 inclusive of GST. So I have to pay that 18% tax to Goverment. Is my understanding is correct?

Please let me know.

Thanks,

Best regards,
Sadguna.

( I am alraedy paying 10% TDS from my salary )
TDS - It's actually direct tax. It's calculated Individual Income vide Taxation.
GST is indirect taxation. It's based on your business / professional transaction...
Also TDS is refundable if your income is under ceiling limit

Hello Sir,

Sorry for asking many questions. I am trying to register GST.But I am not able to register with my existing PAN for individual purpose.

The GST portal asking for Legal Name of the Business (As mentioned in PAN) which I dont have it.

Since I am providing professional service, I didnt registered this. Is it mandatory to register this professional Service and get seperate PAN number for this ?

Which is safer to use for GST ? My own PAN or get new PAN for my business after registering it ?

Please let me know.

Thanks,

Best Regards,
Sadguna.

Hi Sir,

My GST application has changed the status to "Pending for Clarification" and I have received Notice saying Document not correct.

But I am not sure which document is not correct. I registered as Sole proprietor and reason for GST as Voluntary Basis. and Apllication is completed 100%.

I have uploaded my photo, Rent Agreement and cancelled cheque.

And I have selected proprietor as an authorized signatory so the application shows Proof of Authorized Signatory is not required for proprietor who is also an authorized signatory.

I dont have any office for my business since I work from home only, so uploaded my house rent agreement as Adress proof.

Please let me know what is missing and which document is not correct.

Thank you,

Best regards,

Sadguna

I think your rental agreement...

Bcoz,

1. You create the RA is residential purpose. If you are create as residential then it can't be used Commercial purpose.

2. (My Assume) PRPL address and the person add is same then it cannot be accepted...
