Why GST applications from Saltora get stuck, and how we prevent it
- AddressAddress proof doesn't matchThe house or plot number, ward or PIN on the WBSEDCL electricity bill or property papers differs from the application. We match them before filing.
- KhatianLand record mismatchIf you use a Khatian or mutation certificate, the Dag/Khatian number must match your address. We verify banglarbhumi.gov.in records 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.
- Family propertyBuilding in another family member's nameCommon in West Bengal. A consent letter from the owner with their ID and the latest WBSEDCL electricity bill solves it.
- 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.
