Is vishay ka poora practical dhaancha:
GST Lena Kab Zaroori Hai Aur Kab Faydemand
Do alag sawaal hain jo log mila dete hain. Pehla, kab GST lena zaroori hai. Wo turnover ki seema aur kuch khaas sthitiyon par depend karta hai, jaise agar aap doosre rajya mein bech rahe hain ya online platform par bech rahe hain. Doosra sawaal alag hai: kab GST lena faydemand hai, chahe zaroori na ho. Ye tab faydemand hota hai jab aapke customers khud GST-registered business hon, kyunki wo aapse bill maangte hain. Meri seedhi salah: pehle ye dekhiye ki aapke customer kaun hain. Agar wo aam log hain to jaldi karne ki zaroorat nahi. Agar business hain, to wo aapse bill maangenge aur bina uske order rukega.
Registration Ke Baad Ki Zimmedari
GST lene ke baad ek zimmedari jud jaati hai jo bahut log pehle nahi sochte: return file karna, chahe bikri ho ya na ho. Nil return bhi bharna padta hai, aur na bharne par late fee lagti rehti hai. Doosri baat, aapko apna purchase aur sales ka hisaab theek rakhna padta hai. Aap khud sochiye, agar registration le liya aur return bhoolte rahe, to fayda hua ya nuksaan? Isi liye lene se pehle ye tay kijiye ki iska hisaab kaun rakhega. ProWiderKart ek facilitator hai, hum tax ki sewa ya salah nahi dete, sirf free jaankari dete hain.
