Hi,

I had registered my proprietorship firm on my residential address in Delhi in 2017. I was selling sports stuff online from home. Since 2019 I have been working from home providing IT services online. Do I need to get any license from MCD and also any type of local police registration / verification. I don't have any employee and my turnover exceeds 20L. I am a GST holder from starting and following both GST and Income Tax compliances. A cop is hovering around me and indirectly threatening that I am not carrying sufficient documents. He just saw my GST registration board in front of my home and approached me. Thanks

Quick Summary

This discussion addresses whether a proprietorship firm registered at a residential address in Delhi requires an MCD license or local police registration. The user, who has been operating an online IT service business from home since 2019 with GST registration and a turnover exceeding 20L, is concerned after a police officer questioned their documentation. The consensus is that such registrations are typically not required for this type of business, and the inquiry may be related to tax compliance rather than local permits.
