Frequently Asked Questions
How much does GST registration cost in Sahibabad?
GST registration fees depend on the structure of your business — a proprietorship, partnership, company, or LLP. We quote a fixed fee after a quick review of your business documents, and there are no hidden charges. You will also need to budget for professional fees for return filing, which are quoted separately. Call our Sahibabad office to confirm your quote before we start.
How long does GST registration take in Ghaziabad?
Once the required documents are ready, a GST registration application is usually submitted within 24-48 hours. The GST portal typically issues the registration certificate within 7 working days of application, provided the officer does not raise a query. If a clarification is asked, the timeline extends by a few days. We track the status for you until the certificate is issued.
What documents do I need for GST registration for a proprietorship?
For a proprietorship you need the proprietor’s PAN and Aadhaar, a bank account statement or cancelled cheque, a passport-size photograph, and proof of the business address — such as an electricity bill, rent agreement, or property tax receipt. If the business is run from home, a self-declaration may also be required. We prepare and submit the full application for you.
Do I need GST registration if my turnover is under 40 lakh?
If your turnover is below ₹40 lakh for goods (or ₹20 lakh for services), GST registration is generally not mandatory in Uttar Pradesh, provided all supplies are intra-state. However, you may still need registration if you make inter-state sales, sell on an e-commerce platform, or are liable under reverse charge. Voluntary registration is also possible if you want input tax credit.
Can you file my GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B every month?
Yes. We handle GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B on a monthly basis for regular taxpayers, and quarterly under the QRMP scheme for eligible businesses. You share your sales and purchase data with us, we reconcile it with GSTR-2B, compute the tax payable, and file the returns before the due dates. We also track due dates and remind you in advance.
What happens if I miss a GST return due date?
If you file GSTR-3B late, you must pay interest at 18% per annum on the unpaid tax, plus a late fee of up to ₹50 per day (₹20 for NIL returns) for both GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B. You can still file the return after the due date using the GST portal. We can help you file belated returns and, where possible, apply for a waiver or reduction of the late fee.
What is Input Tax Credit (ITC) and how do I claim it?
Input tax credit is the GST you pay on purchases that you can set off against the GST you collect on sales. To claim ITC you need a valid tax invoice, the goods or services must be received, and the supplier must have filed GSTR-1. We reconcile your ITC with GSTR-2B to ensure you claim only eligible credit and don’t face issues later.
Can I cancel a GST registration I no longer need?
Yes. If you have stopped business or no longer cross the registration threshold, you can apply for cancellation of GST registration on the GST portal in Form REG-16. Any pending returns must be filed and taxes paid before cancellation is approved. We can check your eligibility, draft the application, and handle the process for you.
