Gst migration( rent from immovable property) under 15 lakhs per annum

threshold is upto 20lacs as per the GST . it was 10 laks when under service tax law. 10lacs is the threshold exemption nw only incase of north eastern indian states

" does he need to migrate and then apply for cancellation or does he need not use his provisional ids"

Not mandatory to migrate, if aggregate TO below 20 L

can you please tell the source of the point that you mentioned. it would be really helpful

Most of the existing taxpayers will be under GST regime. Even those with interstate transactions, RCM etc. would also be required to get mandatorily registered under GST without turnover limit. This question is only for very few intrastate small traders under 19 lakhs TO (other than NE region). As such no law binding, but for easier transformation to GST, the provisional registration is in progress. Read below a request from  ST Commissioner, Mumbai

Sir/Madam,

All the existing Service Tax assesses have been assigned provisional user ID and password for migration which can be viewed at www.aces.gov.in.after login with your current TIN and Password. While the present Service Tax Exemption threshold is Rs.10 Lakhs, in GST it would be Rs.20 Lakhs aggregate turnover. However, threshold of aggregate turnover shall not be applicable in the following cases and they are required to register themselves.

• Persons making any Inter-State supply;
• Casual taxable persons;
• Persons who are required to pay tax under reverse charge.

You may like to go through model GST laws available in www.cbec.gov.in under the heading GST. Definition of aggregate turnover as contained in Section 2 (6) of Model GST law is reproduced below:-
