Is GST registration mandatory in this case

Hello All,

 

  I wanted to know the following pls:

 A person has started working for a US based company which does not have any presence in India. The work is related to software engg. Till date he has earned 21 lakhs. The expected gross earnings is around 27 lakhs this financial year. The RBI inward remittance code in his FIRC is P0803 – database and data processing charges.

 

Is it compulsory for him to register for a GST number? Is there no way he can avoid the GST registration? Asking since he is not sure if he will continue working with the foreign company in the next financial year.

 

Regards,

Arvind Gupta.

Is GST registration mandatory? Yes. Since the aggregate turnover has crossed ₹21 Lakhs (surpassing the ₹20 Lakhs threshold), registration under GST is compulsory despite the supplies being zero-rated exports.
