Quick Summary
If your new GST registration application has been pending for over 10 days despite submitting clarifications, there's a specific rule to follow. According to CGST Rules 2017, if the tax officer doesn't respond within seven working days of receiving your clarification (FORM GST REG-04), your application is automatically considered approved. You may wish to contact your jurisdictional office, but your registration certificate should be issued based on this 'deemed approval'.
As per clause (b) of sub rule (5) of Rule 9 of the CGST Rules 2017, If the Proper Officer fails to reply within a period of seven working days from the date of the receipt of the clarification, information or documents furnished by the applicant under sub-rule (2) i.e. FORM GST REG-04, the application for grant of registration shall be "deemed to have been approved."
You can contact your Jurisdictional Office once for the delay in processing of your application. Although it is now deemed to have been approved since 7 days have elapsed from the date of submission of FORM GST REG-04.
