Please note, you have not indicated location of the additional place of business (i.e. in same state or different state) nor the ownership structure of entity..i.e. Proprietorship/Firm/LLP/HUF/Company/Trust etc, so reply below is generic.
Depending on the totality of facts and circumstances penalties and the degree & severity of breach of law provisions the penalty may be proposed. Please refer Section 126 of CGST act that specifies general disciplines to be followed by the Officer while imposing penalties.
