The main town of the taluk is Varkala (Municipality), where banks, wholesale markets and the taluk office serve businesses from the surrounding villages.
Whether you run a supermarket, a hardware shop, a tuition centre, a homestay or a works contract from Kudavoor, the whole GST registration is done online, and the GSTIN is valid across Kerala.
