Hi, I want to start a new business of vegetables and food grain as retailer/distributor (i.e such as big basket etc). Do i need to get my self registered with any authorities? Please help.
You would need to get a bunch of approvals for starting the business. Perhaps the most important of them would be to get the food license under FSSAI regulations and the Trade License. Please check the below link for information about registration under FSSAI
Apart from that, PAN. TAN, VAT, Service Tax Registration would be necessary to begin with. You might want to form a company for which you would need to register a company with ROC.

I dont want to register as a company. So no separate pan is required. Further why TAN and service tax registration is required to begin with?
