When the business changes, the GST registration has to change with it. Core fields such as legal name, principal place of business and the addition of partners or promoters need an amendment application and, often, officer approval. Non-core fields such as email, mobile and bank details are updated from the taxpayer login.
Who this is for
- Businesses shifting office
- Firms adding or retiring a partner
- Companies that changed their name at MCA and must mirror it on GST
Documents usually needed
- GSTIN and authorisation
- Proof supporting the new detail — address proof, revised deed, MCA certificate or bank proof
- Photographs where a new promoter is added
How Digital Filings handles it
- Tell us which field is changing.
- We confirm whether it is a core or non-core amendment.
- The amendment is filed and tracked until it reflects on the registration certificate.
Timeline
Non-core updates are often immediate. Core amendments commonly take about 7 to 15 working days if the officer does not raise a query.
Questions people ask
Will my GSTIN number change?
No. An amendment updates the details behind the same GSTIN.
