GST for common businesses in Azhikode
These are the kinds of businesses we most often register in and around Azhikode, and what GST means for each.
Gold & jewellery
Because of the value of gold, jewellers and gold manufacturers in Azhikode 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 Azhikode 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 Azhikode are taxable and register once they cross the limit.
Who needs GST registration in Azhikode?
- 1Turnover above the limitBusinesses in Azhikode 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 Azhikode 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.
