This additional verification helps ensure that GST registrations are issued only to genuine businesses.

Rule 14A empowers GST authorities to verify the identity of selected applicants through:
Aadhaar Authentication
Biometric Authentication (Fingerprint/Iris Scan)
Photograph Capture
Original Document Verification
The verification is conducted at a designated GST Suvidha Kendra (GSK).
Who is Covered Under Rule 14A?
Rule 14A may apply to applicants registering as:
Proprietorship

Multi-State GST Registration
If your business operates from more than one state in India, you may need to obtain separate GST registrations for each state from where taxable supplies are made.

You need separate GST registration if:
Your business has branches in multiple states.
You operate offices or warehouses in different states.
You supply goods or services from multiple states.
You have separate business establishments across India.
Each state registration will have its own GSTIN and compliance requirements.
Benefits of Multi-State GST Registration

Better accounting and compliance.
