Dear Sir,

 

Hope you are doing well !!

 

If your two businesses are located in same state you can have one GST number for both of them. As per Sec 25 of CGST Act, it is mandatory to obtain different registration number for business conducting in different states under same PAN.


 

We may assist you in entire procedure.

 

It is advisable to take a phone consultation for detailed discussion.

Dear sir,

 

There can two GSTIN for a single PAN. If two firms are operated under different trade names you would need to apply for separate GST numbers. If both businesses are located on the same premises and owned by the same person, you still cannot have a single GST number if the services/supplies have no relationship with each other.

Two GST registrations are possible under same PAN when

-both offices or head office and branch office are in different states. ( Mandatory two registrations required)

-person have different business verticals in same state may apply for different registration ( Not mandatory)

 

If however your two businesses are located in same state you can have one GST number for both of them.

Hello,

 

After the CGST Amendment Act 2018, as per Proviso to Section 25(2), a person having multiple places of business in a State or Union territory may be granted a separate registration for each such place of business, only if below-mentioned conditions are satisfied,

  • The registered person should have more than one place of business as defined in section 2 (85).
  • The registered person who is willing to obtain separate registration should not be availing the benefit of the composition scheme.
  • In case of inter-unit supply (i.e. supply by one registered unit to another registered unit) of the goods or services or both, the same shall be treated as regular supply. The registered person is required to issue a tax invoice and pay applicable tax on the same.

I hope this answer satisfies your requirements.

Hi

In case of if your business situated within a state you will require only one GST registration.

If your two businesses are located in same state you can have one GST number for both of them. As per Sec 25 of CGST Act, it is mandatory to obtain different registration number for business conducting in different states under same PAN.

You can include multiple goods and services in one GST registration.

 

As far as inclusion of trade names is concerned, there is only one column to mention trade name. You may mention both names together.

There is no option to enter two different trade names in a single GST Registration.

Dear sir,

 

One way is that after you get the GST number for one of your business , you can then login to gst portal and select 'Amendment of Registration Non - Core Fields' from the Registration tab.There you will find an option 'additional place of business'. There you can add relevant details of the product or service you want to add.

Directly GST Portal does not allow to add two trade name at same time.

No you can't get different name on single GST number.

You'll have to take 2 GST registration.
