Are you an existing taxpayer? Searching for a nice blog/article that lets you know the step-by-step procedure of migrating to the GST tax system? You are in the right place.
Goods and Services Tax (GST), the new taxation system, has replaced all the existing direct and indirect taxes. According to the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT), every taxpayer needs to migrate to the new taxation system to avail the tax returns from the government. To help you migrate, I have briefed the step-by-step procedure of GST Registration for existing Tax Payers.
Step 1:
Login to the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) official website www.gst.gov.in. Search to find the ‘New Registration’ tab under the ‘Services’ dropdown and enter your Provisional username and password (which you received from the tax authority) and click on ‘Login’ button to enter the GST registration page.
Step 2:
You need to enter a valid email address and mobile number on which you will receive a One Time Password (OTP) for the verification purpose. Enter the OTPs you received via email and text message and click on the submit button.
Step 3:
You will be redirected to the next page where you will be prompted to create a new username and password of your choice for your GST portal. After submitting the new credentials, you will receive your new username and password via mail and text message.
Step 4:
Now, login with your new username and password to click provisional enrolment button on the top left corner of the page. Fill all the details related to your Business, proprietor and partner, authorized signatory, principal place and additional place of business, goods and services and bank accounts and upload relevant digital documents. You will receive an acknowledgement email after you digitally signed the application.
The income tax department will issue a provisional registration certificate which can be used to file GST online until you receive your Goods and Services Tax Identification Number (GSTIN). Usually, GST experts team at KENCloud handles all the complex processes involved in filing the tax returns of our company and support me in enhancing my business productivity.
