Is GST registration required to get Udyog Aadhar or Udyam Registration? Can I apply for GST registration using Udyam Registration?
When it comes to starting and operating a Micro, Small or Medium Enterprise the government of India through its Ministry of MSME has laid down certain processes to facilitate ease of doing business in India. A major registration process being implemented by all MSMEs in India today is the Udyam Registration or Udyog Aadhar (as it was called previously). We all know that the Ministry of MSME through its notification no. S.O.2119 (E) dated 26 th June 2020 published in the Official Gazette of India introduced the new and improved system of Udyam Registration and has since replaced it with the existing system of Udyog Aadhar Registration. While doing so it laid down some new pre-requisites which are now required by enterprises to obtain their Udyam Registration. These pre-requisites or the required documents to apply for Udyam Registration are: 1 A valid Aadhaar Number of the proprietor / partner / director / trustee or any other representative representing the firm or organization.
