GST registration - Interstate billing.

This discussion clarifies GST registration requirements for commission agents operating interstate. A Kerala-based agent billing a Mumbai company with an annual turnover under 7 lakhs questioned the necessity of GST billing. While agents typically require mandatory GST registration regardless of turnover, the consensus here is that if the agent is not making a 'supply' on behalf of the principal and is solely receiving commission, they may not fall under the mandatory registration criteria. The agent might be able to surrender their GST registration if their total turnover remains below the 20 lakh threshold.
