GST for common businesses in Pookode
Businesses in Pookode mostly fall into a few groups. Here is when each one needs GST registration.
Gold & jewellery
Because of the value of gold, jewellers and gold manufacturers in Pookode usually cross the registration limit quickly. Goldsmiths doing job work for jewellers need a GSTIN too once their making charges cross ₹20 lakh a year, and correct invoicing of job work avoids notices later.
Wholesale & retail trade
Supermarkets, wholesalers, hardware, textile and electronics shops in Pookode 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.
Clinics, pharmacies & coaching
Healthcare services by clinics and doctors are largely exempt, but pharmacies, medical equipment dealers, Ayurveda product makers and coaching centres in Pookode are taxable and register once they cross the limit.
Who needs GST registration in Pookode?
- 1Turnover above the limitBusinesses in Pookode 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).
- 2Selling goods to other StatesAnyone supplying goods from Pookode to buyers outside Kerala, for example spices, cashew, coir or rubber products sent to Chennai, Bengaluru or Mumbai, whatever the turnover.
- 3Online sellersSellers of goods on Amazon, Flipkart, Meesho and similar platforms selling across States. Small sellers supplying only within Kerala can use an enrolment number instead.
