As per rule 11(2) of the CGST rules 2007 , if such person has more than one place of business , as defined section 2(85) of the CGST act 2017 .

Both options are available. You can carry on the new business under the same GSTIN or you can take a new GSTIN

Dear Asif
Yes you can carry on both the Business under single PAN , but it is advisable to keep correct Book keeping , you must take separate registration for new business

Seperate business seperate gstn but under one pan . Imagine a practical situation where a person carries on 2/3 business.

@ pankaj
But rule 11(2) (a) of CGST rules says , if such person has a more than one place of business ( two different address ) then only he can take two separate registration ,in above case he has only one address with two different business , so rule 11(2)(a) not permits . so I think he has to add his new business in existing registration .

ANOTHER GST NUMBER CAN OBTAIN AT SAME ADDRESS BUT THERE MUST BE SOME PARTITION SHOWING THAT ITS ANOTHER BUSINESS PLACE IN SAME PREMISES, NEED TO PUT THE SIGN BOARD ALSO.
