thanks sir...cirtainly it is great help

GST registration show cause notices for "relationship not proved" come up when the principal place of business is in someone else's name.

What the GST officer needs to see in your reply:

1. NOC or Consent Letter from the property owner stating they permit use of the premises for business. Include date, property address, and owner signature.
2. Proof of relationship between the owner and the proprietor. For family property: Aadhaar of both, or a ration card showing the family connection. For an unrelated landlord: the consent letter plus the owner's ID proof is sufficient.
3. Proof of ownership: a recent electricity bill or property tax receipt in the owner's name.

If you have a registered rent agreement, submit that alone. A registered rent agreement already establishes the relationship and no separate NOC is needed.

Reply timeline: You get 7 working days from the SCN date to respond on the GST portal. Go to Services, then Registration, then Application for Rectification and upload the documents. Do not let the deadline pass as the application gets rejected automatically.
