The Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a comprehensive indirect tax system in India. To operate under this, businesses and individuals need to register for GST. The registration process involves submitting an application and receiving an Application Reference Number (ARN).

This unique number allows you to track the progress of your application and determine your GST ARN status. On this page, I will provide you with information on how to check your GST status.
