Which GST registrations, filings or advisory services fit my business, and how will you manage them?
It depends on your turnover, where you supply from and what you sell. Most businesses need registration once turnover crosses the threshold (generally ₹40 lakh for goods and ₹20 lakh for services, lower in some states), or earlier if they make inter-state supplies of goods or sell through e-commerce operators. After that come monthly or quarterly returns (GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B), an annual return where it applies, and a monthly reconciliation of input tax credit with GSTR-2B. Exporters add a Letter of Undertaking and refund claims, and a business that receives a notice needs a reply or an appeal. We set up a filing calendar, collect your sales and purchase data each month, reconcile and file after your approval, and track notices on the GST portal.
