GST registration and e-commerce query

I started an e-commerce business from my home in April and have applied (applied by self on gst.gov.in) for GST registration on April 4th. There was a clarification asked to upload Professional tax enrolment number and accordingly I provided the same. Since then (8th Jul) the status of my application is showing as pending for order. Can you please advise if I should take any action or just wait? ......NO ACTION ..Its been more 15 days the status is not changing........ARN NUMBER IS SUFFICIENT TO RUN BUSINESS AND ISSUE INVOICE......WHEN YOU GET GSTIN...THEN ISSUE REVISE INVOICE

Also, as an e-commerce provider do I need obtain any other license like trade license, shop and establishment act license...............NOTHING REQUIRED...... I am running the business from Kolkata. Kindly advise.

Thank You

Hello Binshnuji,

15 days is a very long time. Contact the GST helpdesk and inquire about your status. They normally process an application in 5-7 working days.

Other licenses are state specific hence I cannot comment on the same.

Trust this clarifies your query.

Feel free to call / get back in case of further clarifications.

Thanking You.

Hi Vishnu,

It's strongly advised to contact GST help desk as ideally it should have been processed.

Regarding other license, you need to get in touch with local lawyer/ CA. It depends upon the state in which you are running your business.

Please feel free to call/ revert in case you need more clarity.

Thanks and regards
