Whenever the authority comes across such a situation, they rolled out the quick feedback for the applicant to ensure 100% transparency. Once the application is canceled, the applicant would no longer avail of the GST registration unless they opt for the resubmission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mandatory_documentation_for_the_GST_Registration\"><\/span>Mandatory documentation for the GST Registration <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you a good\nreason to believe that the authority is delaying the registration process due\nto documentation issues, here is the checklist of document for your\ncross-reference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>PAN card issued to your business<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Incorporation certificate of the business, or registration\ncertificate. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Identity of the core members of the company, such as Directors\nor promoters.&nbsp;&nbsp; <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Address proof of the core members of the company, such as\nDirectors or promoters.&nbsp;&nbsp; <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Document acting as a proof for business&#8217; address. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bank account details such as transaction statements or canceled\ncheque.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Aadhaar card if required<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Digital Signature of the concerned company&#8217;s members. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Letter of Authorization. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Key_points_to_remember_for_GST_Registration_Process\"><\/span>Key points to remember for GST Registration Process<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>ARN is a unique encoded 15 digit code. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>This is a system-generated code obtain automatically whenever\nthe applicant applies for GST registration.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ARN subsumes information such as year, date, state code, etc.,\nand it helps the applicant to track the progress of the GST registration\nprocess.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Overlooking the registration status could incur unnecessary delays, and you won&#8217;t be able to proceed accordingly.
