5 Simple Steps to Register for GST
While you might have already registered for GST, here are 5 simple steps for those sellers who are yet to do the same:
Step 1 – Verify preliminary details
Create a login account on the GSTN portal. Submit your PAN, mobile number, and Email ID in form PART 1 of GST REG-01.

- Proof of principle place of business (electricity bill, NOC, rent agreement, etc.)

Step 3 – Verification by GST Officer
A GST officer will be assigned to you who will examine and approve the application.
- If all documents are in order, the GST registration will be granted within 3 working days.
- If not, a communication will be sent to you within 3 working days (in form GST REG-03). You have to respond with details in 7 working days (form GST REG-04).
- If there is no response from the GST officer, the application is automatically approved.
Step 5 – Registration Certificate
