Enrolment Basics

Do I need to enrol for GST?
All existing taxpayers registered under any of the Acts as specified in Question 1 will be transitioned to GST. The enrolment for GST will ensure smooth transition to the GST regime.

The data available with various tax authorities is incomplete and thus fresh enrolment has been planned.

Also, this will ensure latest data of taxpayers is available in the GST database without any recourse to amendment process, which is the norm to update the data under tax statutes today.

Why do I need to enrol myself as a taxpayer on the GST Common Portal?
The GST Common Portal has been made available to enable taxpayers enrol with GST. Paper based enrolment option is NOT available.

The GST Common Portal will enable taxpayers to meet the GST compliance requirement like filing return and making tax payment. Using the Portal requires existing taxpayers to enrol.

Why can’t data from tax department be migrated to GST? Why are being asked to provide this data?
The data available with various tax authorities is not complete with respect to registration form under GST and thus fresh enrolment has been initiated.

Also, this will ensure your latest data will be available in GST Database without any recourse to amendment process, which is the norm to update the data under tax laws today.

You do not need to provide any information on paper. Everything has to be done online.

What are the prescribed limits for registration under GST?
Refer the GST Act available on the GST Common Portal to understand the law.

Is there a concept of deemed enrolment under GST?
No. There is no deemed enrolment under GST. All the taxpayers registered under any of the Acts as specified in Question 1, are expected to visit the GST Common Portal and enrol themselves at the GST Common Portal.
