Why GST applications from Tejam Tehsil get stuck, and how we prevent it
- AddressAddress proof doesn't matchThe door number, ward or PIN on the electricity bill or property papers differs from the application. We match them before filing.
- Land papersProperty in someone else's nameIf the building or land is still in a parent's or grandparent's name, add the owner's consent letter and ID. We check the khatauni or tax receipt before uploading.
- AadhaarAadhaar authentication skippedWithout it, the officer can order a site visit and approval can take up to 30 days. We complete it on day one.
- PhotosUnclear photos of the premisesOfficers often ask for a photo showing the name board and the building. We tell you exactly what to click.
- LimitAssuming the ₹40 lakh limitMany people expect the ₹40 lakh goods limit, but in Uttarakhand the limit is ₹20 lakh for goods too. Late registration means tax, interest and penalty on past sales.
- CodesWrong HSN/SAC or business typeChoosing the wrong codes or constitution leads to queries later. We select them based on what you actually sell.
- QueriesMissing the 7-day reply windowAn unanswered query (REG-03) leads to rejection. We reply within the deadline, with no extra fee.

Which documents are needed for GST registration in Tejam Tehsil?+
PAN and Aadhaar of the proprietor, partners or directors, a photograph, bank proof, and proof of your business address in Tejam Tehsil: a recent UPCL electricity bill, the house tax receipt from the nagar nigam, nagar palika or nagar panchayat, or the khatauni from Devbhoomi Bhulekh for your own land, with the owner's consent if the property is in a family member's name. For rented premises, add the rent agreement.
What is the GST state code for Uttarakhand?+
05. Every GSTIN issued to a business registered in Uttarakhand, including one in Tejam Tehsil, starts with 05, followed by the PAN of the business.
How can I get a GST number in Tejam Tehsil?+
Share your PAN, Aadhaar, photo, address proof and bank details with us on WhatsApp. We file Form GST REG-01 online, you confirm an Aadhaar OTP, and the department issues your 15-digit GSTIN starting with 05 and the registration certificate.
Why is the GST limit for goods ₹20 lakh in Uttarakhand?+
In 2019 the GST Council let States raise the limit for suppliers of goods to ₹40 lakh. Uttarakhand, a special category State, is outside that limit, so a business here selling only goods must register once turnover crosses ₹20 lakh, and the composition limit is ₹75 lakh instead of ₹1.5 crore. The services limit is ₹20 lakh, as in most States.
Can I use the khatauni as address proof for GST in Tejam Tehsil?+
Yes. For your own land or house, the khatauni (record of rights) from the Devbhoomi Bhulekh portal in the owner's name is accepted; in towns, the house tax receipt or the registered sale deed also works. Pair it with a recent electricity bill for the same address.
When are GST returns due for a business in Tejam Tehsil?+
Monthly filers submit GSTR-1 by the 11th and GSTR-3B by the 20th of the next month. Small taxpayers under the QRMP scheme in Uttarakhand file GSTR-3B by the 24th of the month after the quarter. Composition dealers file CMP-08 by the 18th after each quarter.
Can I use a UPCL electricity bill as address proof for GST in Tejam Tehsil?+
Yes. A recent UPCL electricity bill for the premises in Tejam Tehsil is one of the most readily accepted proofs. If the bill is in a family member's name, add their consent letter and ID.
Can a small business in Tejam Tehsil choose the composition scheme?+
Yes. In Uttarakhand, traders and manufacturers with turnover up to ₹75 lakh can opt for composition and pay 1% of turnover (5% for restaurants), and service providers up to ₹50 lakh pay 6%. You can't collect GST from customers or claim input tax credit, and goods can't be sold to other States.
Do I need a separate GST registration for a branch in another district of Uttarakhand?+
No. One GST registration covers the whole State. A shop, godown or office in another district of Uttarakhand is added as an additional place of business. You need a separate registration only for another State.
Do contractors working for government departments in Pithoragarh need GST?+
Yes. Government departments, PWD, SIDCUL, UPCL, nagar nigams, panchayats and PSUs such as THDC, NHPC, BHEL and the railways ask for a GSTIN in tenders and work orders, and deduct TDS under GST on larger contracts. The TDS shows in your GST account and is used to pay your tax.
Do I need a trade licence along with GST in Tejam Tehsil?+
GST doesn't need one, but nagar nigams, nagar palikas and nagar panchayats issue trade licences for shops in their towns, and shops and offices register under the Uttarakhand Shops and Establishment (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Service) Act, 2017. A trade licence is also useful supporting proof of your place of business.
Do I need to visit a GST office in Pithoragarh?+
No. GST registration is fully online. You only confirm an Aadhaar OTP on your phone. If the officer orders a site visit, they come to your premises; we tell you exactly what to keep ready.
