GST registration query or rejection in Delhi?

What this means

After REG-01 is filed, an officer can ask for clarification or documents in REG-03. You reply in REG-04 within 7 working days. If the reply is not satisfactory, the application is rejected in REG-05. Applicants flagged by the system can be asked to book an appointment at a GST Suvidha Kendra (GSK) for biometric Aadhaar authentication and document verification.

Common reasons businesses in Delhi get this

• Address proof that does not match the business name or address
• Rent agreement or NOC unsigned, unstamped or incomplete
• Photo of the premises without signage
• Wrong business activity or HSN codes
• Reply to REG-03 not filed within 7 working days

Deadlines

• REG-04 reply to a REG-03 query: within 7 working days
• Biometric appointment at the GSK: as per the slot booked from the link sent after REG-01
• After REG-05 rejection: fix the documents and re-apply, or appeal

How we resolve it — without you visiting the department

• We read the exact query and fix each document
• We file the REG-04 reply online within the window
• If biometric verification is required, we book the GSK slot and prepare your file so one visit is enough
• After a rejection, we correct the cause and file a clean fresh application
• We track the application until the GSTIN is issued

You never have to

• Stand in a queue at the ward or circle office
• Meet the officer yourself or attend the hearing
• Draft legal replies or work through portal forms
• Chase the department for an update — we follow up in writing and keep you posted

Note: biometric Aadhaar verification at a GST Suvidha Kendra is the one step the law requires the applicant to complete in person. Everything else, we handle online.

Delhi: the Department of Trade and Taxes holds personal hearings in virtual mode, so hearings can be attended online by your authorised representative.

What to send us (on WhatsApp or email)

• REG-03 or REG-05 copy
• PAN, Aadhaar and photo of the authorised signatory
• Address proof, rent agreement and NOC
• Premises photos with signage

What happens if you ignore it

An unanswered REG-03 leads to rejection, and repeated rejections make later applications harder.

Everything we do is through lawful, documented channels — replies on the portal, hearings and written submissions on record. A strong, documented reply is what closes matters quickly.
