What is GSTIN?

Before the implementation of GST, all the taxpayers were registered under the state VAT law and they were assigned a unique TIN number. On the other side, the service providers were assigned a service tax registration number by the Central Board of Excise and Custom (CBEC).

Since the GST (Goods and Service Tax) came into existence the taxpayer who falls under GST criteria has to register themselves under GST, those registered taxpayers are provided with a unique registration number which is known as GSTIN (Goods and Services Tax Identification Number).
