FAQ :

Madhya Pradesh is introducing biometric authentication to curb fraudulent GST registrations and prevent tax evasion by verifying taxpayers' identities at the initial stage.

Biometric authentication will be implemented at 46 GST service centres across Madhya Pradesh.

The service centres are expected to become operational by the last week of November 2024.

Applicants' photographs will be captured, and original documents will be physically verified in the presence of the applicant, including checking rent agreements and utility bills.

A data-driven system will flag applications linked to suspicious transactions or fraudulent PAN details, redirecting them to the service centres for stringent verification.

These service centres are jointly managed by the state (SGST) and central (CGST) GST departments.
