In Alappuzha district, Kunnumma (കുന്നുമ്മ) is a revenue village of Kuttanad taluk, which has 14 villages, within the Veliyanad block panchayat. Its local body is Kavalam, which also covers the revenue village of Kavalam.
The Kunnumma village office, under the Kuttanad taluk office, keeps the land records for the village and issues land tax receipts and possession certificates. Either of these, or the building tax receipt from Kavalam, can support your business address in the GST application.
PIN codes used across Kuttanad taluk include 688506, 688562, 689572 and 689573. Use the PIN printed on your KSEB bill or building tax receipt, so that the address in your GST application matches your proof.
From Kunnumma you can apply for GST without visiting Alappuzha: documents are shared on WhatsApp, the application is filed online, and Aadhaar authentication is done with an OTP.
Alappuzha is known for coir, the paddy fields of Kuttanad, backwater and houseboat tourism, and fisheries along the coast.
GST for common businesses in Kunnumma
Businesses in Kunnumma mostly fall into a few groups. Here is when each one needs GST registration.
Coir & coir products
Coir yarn, rope, mat and mattress units in Kunnumma register once sales cross the limit or when they supply buyers outside Kerala. Societies and private units exporting through Kochi usually register early and file an LUT so exports go out without tax.
Homestays, resorts & houseboats
Homestays, resorts, houseboats, tour operators and taxi services in Kunnumma need GST registration once turnover from services crosses ₹20 lakh. Tour operators and travel agents booking for business clients often register earlier so clients can claim credit.
Fisheries & seafood
Fresh fish is exempt, so a seller dealing only in fresh fish is not required to register. Dry fish, frozen and processed seafood, ice plants, boats and nets are handled differently, so processors, peeling sheds and exporters in Kunnumma generally register once over the limit and exporters file an LUT.
Who needs GST registration in Kunnumma?
- 1Turnover above the limitBusinesses in Kunnumma with aggregate turnover above ₹40 lakh (only goods) or ₹20 lakh (services or both) in a financial year. Kerala uses the normal limits (₹10 lakh applies only in a few special category States).
- 2Selling goods to other StatesAnyone supplying goods from Kunnumma to buyers outside Kerala, for example spices, cashew, coir or rubber products sent to Chennai, Bengaluru or Mumbai, whatever the turnover.
- 3Online sellersSellers of goods on Amazon, Flipkart, Meesho and similar platforms selling across States. Small sellers supplying only within Kerala can use an enrolment number instead.
