GST Registration Online — New GSTIN for Your Business
GST registration gives your business a 15-character GSTIN. With it you can charge GST and claim credit on what you buy. You must apply within 30 days of crossing ₹40 lakh turnover for goods or ₹20 lakh for services in Haryana, or earlier if Section 24 makes it compulsory. We file Form GST REG-01 on the GST portal and stay with the application until the certificate is issued.
What it is
GST registration is the process of enrolling your business with the GST department. Once approved, you get a Goods and Services Tax Identification Number, or GSTIN, and a registration certificate in Form GST REG-06. The first two digits of the GSTIN are the state code (06 for Haryana) and the next ten are your PAN.
The rules are in Sections 22 to 25 of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 and Rules 8 to 10A of the CGST Rules, 2017. Registration is PAN-based and state-wise, so a business operating from two states needs a separate GSTIN in each. The application is filed online on the GST portal and carries no government fee.
Who it applies to
You have crossed the turnover limit
Under Section 22, a supplier of goods in Haryana and other normal-category states must register once aggregate turnover crosses ₹40 lakh in a financial year. For service providers the limit is ₹20 lakh. Aggregate turnover is counted on your PAN across India and includes exempt supplies and exports.
You must register from the first sale
Section 24 overrides the threshold. Anyone making inter-state supplies of goods, a casual taxable person, a person paying tax under reverse charge and most sellers on e-commerce platforms must register before the first such supply, whatever the turnover. Take a Faridabad auto-parts trader with sales well under ₹40 lakh: the first consignment billed to a buyer in Noida makes registration compulsory.
You want to register before you have to
Section 25(3) allows voluntary registration below the threshold. Small suppliers often do this because large buyers want a GSTIN on the invoice so they can claim input tax credit. A new sole trader usually pairs it with Udyam registration as an MSME.
Why it matters
Win business buyers with tax invoices
Only a registered person can charge GST on an invoice. Your business customers claim that tax as input tax credit, so your real cost to them is lower than an unregistered supplier’s.
Recover the GST you pay on purchases
GST paid on raw material, rent, professional fees and capital goods used in the business becomes credit in your electronic credit ledger. Without a GSTIN, that tax is simply a cost.
Sell across states and on marketplaces
Inter-state sales of goods, marketplace listings and GeM tenders all need a GSTIN. Most corporate buyers ask for one before adding you as a vendor.
Documents required

- PAN of the business (or of the proprietor)
- Certificate of incorporation, LLP certificate or partnership deed, as applicable (our partnership firm registration service can prepare the deed if it is not ready)
- Board resolution or authority letter naming the authorised signatory
Place of business
- Latest electricity bill, property tax receipt or municipal khata of the premises
- Rent or lease agreement if rented
- Consent letter or NOC from the owner if the premises belong to a relative or someone else
People and bank
- PAN, Aadhaar and photograph of each proprietor, partner, director and the authorised signatory
- Mobile number and email linked for OTP verification
- Cancelled cheque or bank statement showing the business account
How it works
Confirm liability and choose the route
We look at your turnover, the kind of supplies and the states involved, then confirm whether you need normal registration, the Rule 14A option or a Section 24 compulsory registration.
File Part A and Part B of REG-01
Part A verifies PAN, mobile and email by OTP and gives a Temporary Reference Number. Part B carries business details, places of business, HSN/SAC codes, promoters and uploads.
Authenticate Aadhaar for every promoter
Each promoter and the authorised signatory authenticates Aadhaar through an OTP link. If the portal flags the application, it books a biometric appointment at a GST Suvidha Kendra, which for Faridabad is at the Excise and Taxation office in Sector 12.
Reply to any REG-03 query in time
The officer may raise a query in Form GST REG-03, often about the rent agreement or the owner’s consent. We draft the reply in REG-04 and file it within seven working days.
Download REG-06 and add the bank account
On approval the GSTIN and REG-06 certificate appear on the portal. We add your bank account straight away so the registration is not suspended under Rule 10A, then set up your GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B filing calendar.
Normal route vs Rule 14A route
| Point | Normal registration (Rule 9) | Rule 14A option |
|---|---|---|
| Who can opt | Any applicant | Applicants whose output tax on supplies to registered persons will not exceed ₹2.5 lakh a month |
| Approval time | 7 working days; up to 30 days if physical verification is needed or Aadhaar is not authenticated | 3 working days after Aadhaar authentication |
| In force since | 1 July 2017 | 1 November 2025 (Notification 18/2025–Central Tax) |
| Exit | Not applicable | Withdraw through Form GST REG-32 when B2B tax will cross the limit |
Timelines
Apply within 30 days
Section 25(1) requires the application within 30 days from the date you become liable to register, for example the day turnover crosses the threshold.
Approval in 7 or 3 working days
Rule 9 gives the officer 7 working days, stretching to 30 days with physical verification. Under Rule 14A approval comes within 3 working days.
Bank account within 30 days
Rule 10A requires bank details within 30 days of registration or before your first GSTR-1 or IFF, whichever is earlier.
Here is the catch: the 30-day clock under Section 25(1) starts when you become liable, not when you notice. A home-based consultant in Ballabgarh who crosses ₹20 lakh in December and applies in March has already sold for two months without registration.
What happens if you don’t register
Penalty under Section 122
Supplying without registration when liable attracts a penalty of ₹10,000 or the tax evaded, whichever is higher.
Pay the tax yourself, with 18% interest
The department can demand GST on every sale made since you became liable, with interest at 18% a year under Section 50, even though you never collected it from customers.
Lose credit and business buyers
In practice, the bigger loss is commercial. Buyers who cannot claim credit on your bills move to suppliers who can.
Frequently asked questions
What is the GST registration limit in Haryana?
The limit is ₹40 lakh aggregate turnover for suppliers of goods and ₹20 lakh for service providers in a financial year. Haryana is a normal-category state, so these limits have applied since 1 April 2019. Turnover is counted on your PAN across all states and includes exempt sales and exports. Check Section 24 first: if you sell goods inter-state, for example, you need registration whatever the turnover.
How long does GST registration take?
Most applications are approved within 7 working days under Rule 9. If the officer orders physical verification of the premises, or Aadhaar authentication is not done, the period can stretch to 30 days. Under the Rule 14A option, approval comes within 3 working days after Aadhaar authentication. A query in REG-03 pauses the clock until we reply in REG-04. Clean documents at the start are the best way to avoid one.
Is there any government fee for GST registration?
No, the GST portal charges no fee for a new registration in Form GST REG-01. You pay only our professional fee, which we quote before we start. The costs that come later are late fees if returns are delayed after registration. We fix your first return dates on the day the GSTIN is issued, so the first month starts clean.
Can I get GST registration at my home address?
Yes, a residence can be the principal place of business if you actually run the business from there. You need proof of the premises, such as an electricity bill or property tax receipt, and a consent letter if the house belongs to a parent or spouse. The officer may order a physical visit, so the address and name board should match what you filed. A home address is accepted when the papers match the application.
What is the Rule 14A option and should I choose it?
Rule 14A, in force since 1 November 2025, gives approval within 3 working days to applicants whose output tax on supplies to registered buyers will not exceed ₹2.5 lakh a month. It suits small traders and service providers who mostly sell to consumers. If your B2B tax will later cross the limit, you withdraw the option through Form GST REG-32. We check your expected sales before ticking it, so you do not have to unwind it later.
Why was I asked to visit a GST Suvidha Kendra?
The portal flags some applications on risk parameters and asks for biometric Aadhaar authentication at a GST Suvidha Kendra. You receive an email with the appointment link and carry your Aadhaar, the appointment email and original documents. For Faridabad, the centre is at the Excise and Taxation Department office in Sector 12. It is an identity check, and once it is done the application moves on.
Do I need a separate GSTIN for each state?
Yes, GST registration is state-wise, so each state where you have a place of business needs its own GSTIN under the same PAN. Within one state, extra godowns, branches or warehouses are added as additional places of business on the same GSTIN. Sellers using marketplace warehouses in another state must register there too. We map your locations before filing so no state is left out.
What do I have to file after getting registered?
A regular taxpayer files GSTR-1 for sales by the 11th and GSTR-3B with tax payment by the 20th of the next month. Under the QRMP scheme, returns are quarterly and Haryana businesses file GSTR-3B by the 24th after the quarter. An annual return in GSTR-9 follows if your turnover requires it. Nil returns are needed even in months with no sales, and our monthly filing service keeps all of this on track.
What happens if I do not add a bank account after registration?
Your GSTIN is suspended automatically. Rule 10A requires bank details within 30 days of registration or before your first GSTR-1 or IFF, whichever is earlier, and GSTN’s advisory of 5 December 2025 confirms automatic suspension for non-compliance. The fix is simple: add the account through a non-core amendment and the proceedings drop. We add the account as soon as the certificate is issued, so this never happens.
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.
For a new GST registration the government fee is nil.
