Kottur (കോട്ടൂർ) is a revenue village in Koyilandy taluk, Kozhikode district, one of 31 villages in the taluk, within the Balusseri block panchayat. Its local body is Kottur, which also covers the revenue village of Avitanallur.
The Kottur village office, under the Koyilandy 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 Kottur, can support your business address in the GST application.
The nearest post office is Kottur (branch post office, PIN 673614), under the Koyilandi head post office. The PIN code in your GST application must match the one on your KSEB bill or building tax receipt, or the officer may raise a query.
The main town of the taluk is Koyilandy (Municipality), where banks, wholesale markets and the taluk office serve businesses from the surrounding villages.
From Kottur you can apply for GST without visiting Kozhikode: documents are shared on WhatsApp, the application is filed online, and Aadhaar authentication is done with an OTP.
Kozhikode is a historic trading city with wholesale markets, timber and furniture, food businesses, hospitals and tourism, and a growing IT cluster around the Cyberpark.
GST for common businesses in Kottur
What GST means for the typical businesses of Kottur and the wider Kozhikode district:
Wholesale & retail trade
Supermarkets, wholesalers, hardware, textile and electronics shops in Kottur register once turnover crosses ₹40 lakh, or earlier to buy from bigger distributors with input tax credit. Traders below ₹1.5 crore can choose the composition scheme and pay a small fixed percentage of turnover instead.
Plywood, timber & furniture
Plywood and veneer units, saw mills, timber depots and furniture makers in Kottur usually need GST registration, because buyers are businesses that claim input tax credit, and timber moving between districts or States needs e-way bills.
Clinics, pharmacies & coaching
Healthcare services by clinics and doctors are largely exempt, but pharmacies, medical equipment dealers, Ayurveda product makers and coaching centres in Kottur are taxable and register once they cross the limit.
Who needs GST registration in Kottur?
- 1Turnover above the limitBusinesses in Kottur 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).

Which address proof works for a shop or office in Kottur?+
The latest building tax receipt from Kottur, a land tax receipt or possession certificate from the Kottur 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 Kottur?+
Use the PIN printed on your address proof. The Kottur post office serving Kottur uses PIN 673614; a mismatch between the PIN in the application and the proof is a common reason for a query.

Do homestays and houseboats in Kozhikode need GST?+
Once turnover from services crosses ₹20 lakh in a year, yes. Many homestays, resorts and tour operators register earlier to work with travel portals, companies and government departments that ask for GST invoices.
Do I need a trade licence along with GST in Kottur?+
GST doesn't need one, but your local body may: grama panchayats, municipalities and corporations issue trade licences, and some trades and small factories need the D&O (dangerous and offensive trades) licence. A trade licence is also useful supporting proof of your business.
How is profession tax paid by businesses in Kottur?+
In Kerala, profession tax is collected every half-year by the local body where you work or run the business: the grama panchayat, municipality or corporation. Employers deduct it from salaries and pay it to the local body. It is separate from GST.
