Pro Tips & Warnings

GST registration is mandatory once annual turnover crosses Rs 40 lakh for goods (Rs 20 lakh for services) in most states, but voluntary registration is allowed below that too.
Choose the Composition Scheme if your turnover is under Rs 1.5 crore for simpler quarterly returns and lower tax rates, but you lose input tax credit.
Keep your GSTIN certificate displayed at your principal place of business, as required by law, and file returns even if there's no business activity in a period.
