What is GST Registration?

GST (Goods and Services Tax) Registration is a legal process through which a business gets registered under the GST law in India. After registration, the business receives a GSTIN (Goods and Services Tax Identification Number) and becomes authorized to collect GST from customers and claim input tax credit.
