GST for common businesses in Pallikkunnu
Businesses in Pallikkunnu mostly fall into a few groups. Here is when each one needs GST registration.
Handloom & textiles
Handloom societies, weaving units and garment makers in Pallikkunnu register once sales cross the limit or when they sell to other States or through showrooms that ask for GST invoices. Makers of notified handicraft goods get some relief for inter-State sales below the limit, subject to conditions.
Plywood, timber & furniture
Plywood and veneer units, saw mills, timber depots and furniture makers in Pallikkunnu usually need GST registration, because buyers are businesses that claim input tax credit, and timber moving between districts or States needs e-way bills.
Homestays, resorts & houseboats
Homestays, resorts, houseboats, tour operators and taxi services in Pallikkunnu 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 Pallikkunnu 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.
Contractors & suppliers
Civil, electrical and plumbing contractors and material suppliers in Pallikkunnu working for government departments, local bodies or companies need a GSTIN. Government offices deduct TDS under GST on larger contracts, credited against your GST.
Online sellers
Sellers in Pallikkunnu supplying goods only within Kerala through marketplaces can use an enrolment number instead of GST below the limit. Selling to buyers in other States through Amazon, Flipkart or Meesho needs GST registration from the first sale.
