GST for common businesses in Kottangal
What GST means for the typical businesses of Kottangal and the wider Pathanamthitta district:
Rubber trade & processing
Growers selling sheet rubber or latex from their own holdings are agriculturists and generally don't need GST for that sale. Rubber dealers, sheet processing and smoke-house units, and latex-based manufacturers in Kottangal register once over the limit, and buyers in other States insist on a GSTIN.
Homestays, resorts & houseboats
Homestays, resorts, houseboats, tour operators and taxi services in Kottangal 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.
Wholesale & retail trade
Supermarkets, wholesalers, hardware, textile and electronics shops in Kottangal 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.
