If two seperate product lines then it's OK
you need to have seperate registration.

Separate Name can't be done with same registration..

Every GST registration has Trade Name but the registration can't have two trade names .

You can carry multiple business under single registration within the state but it should be with the same trade name .

So you must have seperate registration if you want seperate trade name

If both are belongs to same PAN then you can have a single GST registration with same trade name but in your case you must have two GST registrations since you need different trade name

For GST Purposes Legal Name & Trade Name both will be there on the GST Certificate.

One Registration Can have one trade name only .

It simple commonsense that how can one carry business with trade name which different from GST Certificate?

Legal name is just to identify ownership but trade is for carrying business with particular name .
