GST for Creators: When You Need It and How to Register

Confused about GST? We break down the threshold, registration process, and pricing.

Share:

GST registration is mandatory for businesses with annual turnover above ₹20 lakhs (₹10 lakhs for special states).

When You DON'T Need GST

If your annual revenue is below ₹20 lakhs, GST is optional. You can still sell on Hookit without it.

When You NEED GST

Cross ₹20 lakhs in a financial year? You must register. Selling interstate? Register regardless of turnover.

How to Register

Visit gst.gov.in, fill Form GST REG-01, submit documents (PAN, Aadhaar, bank statement, address proof). Get GSTIN in 3-7 days.
