In India, GST registration is generally required if your annual turnover exceeds ₹40 lakh for goods (₹20 lakh for services), though for special category states it’s lower (₹20 lakh for goods, ₹10 lakh for services). If you’re below this limit, you don’t need to register, so effectively your entire turnover is “GST-exempt” from compliance. There’s also the Composition Scheme for small businesses (up to ₹1.5 crore turnover, ₹50 lakh for services), where you pay a lower fixed GST rate with simpler filing. The limits do vary slightly based on whether you’re selling goods or services and your state, so it’s worth double-checking based on your exact setup.
