What is GST Registration?
GST Registration is a process by which a business becomes a registered taxpayer under the GST
Act.
It consolidates multiple taxes (like Excise, VAT, and Service Tax) into a single 15-digit GSTIN.
In 2026, the registration process is fully biometric-linked and Aadhaar authenticated to ensure
high security and faster approvals.
