GST Registration Limit 40 Lakhs Notification
Business Persons whose annual turnover of more than Rs. 40 lakhs (Rs. 20 lakhs for businesses in some special category states) are required to register for GST. The GST Council raised the minimum threshold for GST registration from 20 lakhs to 40 lakhs (from Rs.10 lakhs to Rs.20 lakhs for special category states) in consideration of MSMEs’ concerns, thereby relieving many small businesses from paying GST.
However, certain businesses, such as those engaged in e-commerce or selling goods across state borders, are required to register for GST regardless of their turnover. It is important to check the GST laws and regulations in a specific region to determine the minimum limit for registration.
