GST Registration Procedure using Aadhar Card

The 39th GST Council Meeting, which took place in August 2020, made it possible for Aadhar authentication to be used in the GST registration procedure. A more robust and speedier method of taxpayer verification is introduced with the implementation of GST registration using Aadhar, which significantly improves the ease with which business may be conducted. This service of authenticating using Aadhar is available to all individuals who are citizens of India. The following is a detailed walkthrough of the procedure for registering for GST using Aadhar as the authentication method:

• When a taxpayer submits an online application for GST registration, they are allowed to verify themselves using Aadhar; if they want to do so, they must pick the Yes vote.
• When the user selects “Yes," an authentication link will be sent to the e-mail and cellphone number associated with their GST account.
• After selecting the authentication link, the applicant will be sent to a page where they may input their Aadhar number. Once the number has been entered, the applicant must click the “Validate" button.
• If the information provided in the registration form and the UIDAI are identical, an OTP will be sent to the cellphone number and e-mail address provided during registration.
• Please validate your account by entering the OTP in the space given. A message indicating that the e-KYC authentication was completed successfully will be shown.
