GST for common businesses in Periyar
Businesses in Periyar mostly fall into a few groups. Here is when each one needs GST registration.
Cardamom, pepper & spices
Farmers selling their own cardamom or pepper don't need GST. Dealers, auctioneers' buyers, curing and processing units and exporters in Periyar need registration, especially when spices are sent to buyers outside Kerala.
Tea & coffee plantations
Estates selling only unprocessed leaf or cherry from their own land are treated as agriculturists for that sale. Estates with factories, curing works, packers and traders in Periyar usually register, because buyers and auction systems expect a GSTIN.
Homestays, resorts & houseboats
Homestays, resorts, houseboats, tour operators and taxi services in Periyar 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.
