E-commerce Operator means any person who operates e-commerce it can be either individual or company or firm. (for detailed discussion refer Sec 2(45) & (84) of CGST Act, 2017). Thus, As per GST law, any person can start e-commerce.
In case of e-commerce operator he has to take 2 types of Registrations under GST first as normal taxpayer and second as Tax Collector.
Because in case of some types of services provided through e-commerce he is liable to pay tax under RCM i.e. room booking, radio taxi (for detailed discussion refer Notification No. 17/2017-C.T. (Rate) dated 28.06.2017
In case of supply where tax is not payable under RCM, e-commerce is required to collect TCS.
So, two registration has to be obtained first as Taxpayer and second as Tax Collector (E-Commerce)

Hi!
I want to know whether GST registration is required to start a retail online grocery store to sell fruits, vegetables, household needs, body care needs etc to serve the requirements of a small area, say a town. It will operate within 30 km range, within a district, within a state. In NE India, where the threshold limit is 20 Lakh. Can you please explain how it will work, which law is applicable. What is TCS ? Whether it is applicable to it ? Very confused ? Please help me out.
Thanks.

GST registration is must for an e-commerce operator. This will be a TCS registration. This will be for the service which the E-commerce operator provides to the seller of the goods. Also since he is selling goods by adding up a margin, he is required to take normal registration too
