A client of mine is a civil contractor. He is a partner in a partnership firm. All contract works, receipts , payments etc are carried out in the firms name and the TDS on contract receipts also deducted from the partnership firm.
The issue is that after the introduction of GST, registration was taken in the name of my client as a proprietor. So as per the GSTN , the registration is for a sole proprietorship, but the income tax is paid by the partnership firm.
Please advice me if this would pose an issue in the future? Should my client apply for another GST registration in the name of the partnership firm?

Proprietary and partnership are two different entity, GST In propriety concern no way connected to Partnership concern, whatever tax paid by firm for proprietary concern is considered in Firm books as partners drawing .income or GST Turner over from proprietary concern is not considered As Firm Income .so you have to register GST In Firm Name .
