The latest building tax receipt from Elamkunnapuzha, a land tax receipt or possession certificate from the Puthuvype village office, or a recent KSEB bill for the building. If the premises are rented, add the rent agreement and the owner's consent letter.
Which PIN code should I use for a business in Puthuvype?+
Use the PIN printed on your address proof. The Puthuvype post office serving Puthuvype uses PIN 682508; a mismatch between the PIN in the application and the proof is a common reason for a query.

Yes. A business located in Puthuvype and owned by a Keralite living abroad registers like any other business, with the owner's PAN, passport or Aadhaar, and the Indian business address. A family member in Kerala can be the authorised signatory for day-to-day filings.

Do contractors working for government departments or local bodies in Ernakulam need GST?+
