Why this is a screening tool
GST registration depends on aggregate turnover, State/category, nature and location of supply, exemptions and compulsory-registration provisions.
The ₹40 lakh goods threshold is not universal. Services/mixed supplies commonly use ₹20 lakh, while specified categories may have lower limits. Interstate and e-commerce exceptions require fact-specific review.
