FAQ

Freelancers, small traders, consultants, and entrepreneurs who want to start a business quickly with minimal compliance should opt for this model.

GST registration is mandatory only if your turnover crosses the threshold limit (₹20/40 lakhs) or if you are engaged in interstate trade/e-commerce.

Typically, you need:

  • PAN card of the proprietor

  • Aadhaar card

  • Address proof (office/residence)

  • Recent passport-size photograph

  • Bank account details

  • Business-related documents (if any)

No, the proprietor’s individual PAN card is used for the firm as well.

 

Usually, the process takes 3–7 working days, depending on documentation and approvals.
