GST portal now opens its fresh registrations

The GST Common Portal has opened inviting fresh registrations of first-time taxpayers, including those to be registered as TDS/TCS and enrollment of GST practitioners. It is also open for existing taxpayers to complete their enrollment process.

The GSTN has set up a robust portal already equipped to handle as many as 2.6 billion transactions every month. The GST portal has already opened two windows for enrollments – first between November 8 and April 30 and then from 1st to 15th June. This is the third window to allow all taxpayers enough time to migrate to the new regime.

“To help the people register themselves to the new GST portal smoothly, we have released three videos just after the opening of the portal today. The videos are an official guide for registration which will ensure a smooth rollout of the regime. The videos have been crafted to help all taxpayers, including those who are not well versed with technology to complete their enrollments​. These videos are available on the YouTube channel of GST,” said Navin Kumar, Chairman, Goods & Services Tax Network (GSTN).

The Goods & Services Tax has been referred to as the most significant tax reform in India post independence. The new regime will usher in a common national market by doing away with a complex web of local and central taxes and incorporating them into a single levy.

The GST Common Portal will enable taxpayers to meet the GST-compliance requirement like filing returns and making tax payments.
