15 December 2016 One of my client is a trading company registered under VAT and it also repairs and maintenance, GTA etc services. ie it is registered under service tax even. So at the time of registration under GST along with VAT details , i am even mentioning details of service tax even. Now when from 1.1.17 to 31.1.17 when enrollment starts for service providers do i need to once again register this company on gst portal. Kindly guide.

15 December 2016 Dear Anonymous, This is typical in many industries like testing of electronics alongwith repairs and maintenance thereof. My recommendation is if both trading and service activity are provided from single premises, then only one registration which you've taken is enough.

16 December 2016 Sir the in GST the data of Sales Tax Department is taken as base. If the person is not registered under Sales tax then he will be allotted GST provisional id under service tax. Since in your case you are registered under Vat Act so the same number will work for sales tax and service tax for one unit

17 December 2016 Dear Vipin, Since you've already registered during the vat provisional id period and have mentioned the services rendered, you do not need to register again. but I'd recommend you visit the website when the service tax provisional registration starts. maybe they may have added an option... only time will tell. But as such, your registration is confirmed. Now no issue of trade or service since in gst tax is supply based.
