Types of amendments that can be done

Modifications to the Core Field

The legal name of the company, the address of the main location, and any other locations are all changes to the Core Field. A proper office must approve any changes to the Core Fields within 15 days.

Modification in Non-Core Field

Some fields don't need clearance from the appropriate office, and non-core field adjustments can be made online with ease. Non-core fields include all fields other than those that fall within the category of core fields.

Modification In Email Or Mobile Number

After online verification on the common GST site, the change in email or cell phone number requires verification by OTP (One-Time Password).

Eligible applicants to change registration details

The following type of taxpayers may update their registration information:

• New applications and common taxpayers
• Changes to TDS/TCS registration for those who have UIN cards and are affiliated with UN agencies, Embassies, or other persons who have been alerted
• foreign non-resident taxpayer
• GST specialist
• Provider of online application and retrieval services

The fields which cannot be modified

• Since PAN numbers are the only thing used for GST registration, any changes to PAN card information are not permitted.
• Because it requires a new PAN number in the first place, changing the business's constitution is not possible.
• Since GST registration is state-specific, moving a business from one state to another is not possible.

In addition, the primary authorised signature may be altered on the condition that a new primary signatory be added. The principal signatory cannot be changed if the requirement is not met.
