GST Registration in Gurugram
A Gurugram business must register for GST once its turnover crosses ₹40 lakh for goods or ₹20 lakh for services, or earlier if it sells goods across state lines. You apply in Form GST REG-01 on the GST portal, and your GSTIN will start with 06, Haryana’s state code. Our main GST registration page explains the process for every state; this one covers Gurugram.
What it is
GST registration gives your business a GSTIN, the 15-digit number you put on every tax invoice. It lets you charge GST and claim input tax credit on what you buy. Clients also check it before paying you.
The law is the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 with the Haryana GST Act, 2017. Section 22 sets the turnover threshold, Section 24 lists cases where registration is compulsory regardless of turnover, and Section 25 says you must apply within 30 days of becoming liable. The full walkthrough is on our GST registration service page.
Which GST office handles a Gurugram registration
Haryana is a normal-category state, so the ₹40 lakh and ₹20 lakh limits apply. Once approved, your registration is assigned either to the Centre or to the State for administration. On the central side, Gurugram falls under the CGST Gurugram Commissionerate in the Panchkula Zone, split into divisions and ranges by area. On the state side, the Haryana Excise and Taxation Department administers Gurugram taxpayers.
You do not choose the officer. The GST portal fills in the jurisdiction from your address and PIN code, and it shows on your registration certificate (Form GST REG-06). Notices, physical verification and amendment queries later come from that office.

Who it applies to
IT and SaaS companies
Software and consulting firms in Cyber City and Udyog Vihar billing Indian clients past ₹20 lakh, or exporting services and wanting to file an LUT.
Online sellers
Anyone selling goods through an e-commerce marketplace to buyers in other states. Since 1 October 2023, small sellers who ship only within Haryana can enrol on the GST portal instead of registering.
Traders and manufacturers
Auto component, apparel and electronics units around IMT Manesar and Old Gurugram that ship goods to other states.
Why it matters
Corporate clients ask for it
Most Gurugram corporates want a GSTIN before they raise a purchase order, so they can claim credit on your invoice.
Input tax credit
GST paid on rent, laptops and software subscriptions can be set off against the GST you collect.
Exports without tax outflow
Registered exporters can file an LUT and bill foreign clients without paying IGST up front.

How it works
Check whether you must register now
We check your turnover, the kind of supply and where your buyers are, and tell you whether registration is due now.
File REG-01 Part A and Part B
Part A verifies PAN, mobile and email. Part B carries business details, HSN or SAC codes and the uploaded proofs.
Complete Aadhaar authentication
Promoters verify by OTP. If the portal flags the application, it sends a link to book biometric verification at a GST Suvidha Kendra.
Answer queries and download REG-06
We reply to any clarification notice in time and download the certificate once the officer approves.
Timelines
When to apply
Within 30 days of becoming liable to register, under Section 25(1).
Approval
Usually within 7 working days. Up to 30 days where Aadhaar authentication is not done or physical verification is ordered (Rule 9).
First return
GSTR-3B by the 20th of the next month, or by the 24th after the quarter for Haryana businesses in QRMP.
What happens if you skip registration
Tax from your own pocket
The department can demand GST on past sales, with interest under Section 50. You never collected that tax, so it comes out of your margin.
Penalty
A demand under Section 73 carries a penalty of 10% of the tax or ₹10,000, whichever is higher.
Lost credit and clients
No input tax credit for the period, and buyers cannot claim credit on your invoices.
Frequently asked questions
What is the GST registration limit in Gurugram?
The limit is ₹40 lakh of aggregate turnover in a financial year if you supply only goods, and ₹20 lakh if you supply services or a mix. Haryana is a normal-category state, so these standard limits apply in Gurugram. Some businesses must register from the first sale whatever their turnover, such as inter-state suppliers of goods and e-commerce sellers shipping goods to other states. We check which rule applies to you.
Can a coworking space be my principal place of business?
Yes, if the coworking operator gives you an agreement, an NOC and a recent electricity bill for the premises. The officer may order physical verification, so the address must be one where your business can be found. Some “virtual office” packages offer only a letter, which tends to draw queries. We review the operator’s papers before uploading them, so the application does not stall.
How long does GST registration take in Gurugram?
Usually about 7 working days from a complete application, when Aadhaar authentication is done. Under Rule 9 the officer can stretch this to 30 days if physical verification is ordered or authentication is skipped. A clarification notice also pauses the clock until you reply. Clean documents decide the speed more than anything else.
Will I have to visit a GST office for biometrics?
Only if the portal selects your application for it. Based on risk parameters, the GST system sends some applicants an email link to book biometric Aadhaar verification at a GST Suvidha Kendra instead of OTP authentication. You then carry the appointment email, Aadhaar and original documents. Most applicants finish with OTP from home.
Do I need GST if I only export software services from Gurugram?
Usually yes, once turnover crosses ₹20 lakh, because exports count in aggregate turnover. A two-person dev shop in Udyog Vihar billing only US clients reaches that limit sooner than many expect. Exports are zero-rated, so after registering you file an LUT and bill foreign clients without paying IGST. You can then claim refunds of input tax credit. Our GST LUT filing service covers that step each financial year.
Can I register voluntarily below the limit?
Yes. Any business can register voluntarily, and many Gurugram freelancers do because their corporate clients insist on a GSTIN. Once registered you must charge GST and file returns even in a quiet month. If your clients are mostly individuals, the GST added to your bill can cost you work, since they cannot claim it back, so we discuss it before you apply.
I have a warehouse in Manesar and an office in Gurugram. One GSTIN or two?
One GSTIN covers both, since both sit in Haryana. You name one as the principal place of business and add the other as an additional place of business, with its own address proof. A separate GSTIN is needed only for a place of business in another state, such as a Delhi or Noida office. Adding a place later is an amendment on the portal.
Do I have to come to Faridabad to get this done?
No. GST registration is fully online, and almost all our Gurugram clients send documents digitally and authenticate by OTP from their phone. If you would like to meet, visit us at B-363-365, Second Floor, BK Chowk, Faridabad, Haryana 121001. Our phone line, +91 93117 95484, is open 24 hours, so call first and we will be ready.
What it costs
Our fee plus the government fee that applies to your case, quoted before you commit. Tell us the situation and we will price it exactly.
The GST portal charges no government fee for a new registration.
Ready to begin?
Share your PAN, your Gurugram address proof and what you sell, and we will file a REG-01 that the officer can approve without questions.
