GST for common businesses in Kurattissery
Businesses in Kurattissery mostly fall into a few groups. Here is when each one needs GST registration.
Coir & coir products
Coir yarn, rope, mat and mattress units in Kurattissery register once sales cross the limit or when they supply buyers outside Kerala. Societies and private units exporting through Kochi usually register early and file an LUT so exports go out without tax.
Homestays, resorts & houseboats
Homestays, resorts, houseboats, tour operators and taxi services in Kurattissery 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.
Fisheries & seafood
Fresh fish is exempt, so a seller dealing only in fresh fish is not required to register. Dry fish, frozen and processed seafood, ice plants, boats and nets are handled differently, so processors, peeling sheds and exporters in Kurattissery generally register once over the limit and exporters file an LUT.
