Change / Amendment of GST Registration

Keeping your GST registration details accurate and current as your business evolves — a legal requirement, not just good practice.

Quick answer

Any change to the details furnished at the time of Goods and Services Tax (GST) registration — such as business name, address, partners or directors, or bank account details — must be reported to the department within 15 days of the change, using Form GST REG-14. Changes are classified as 'core field' amendments, which require officer approval, or 'non-core field' amendments, which are updated automatically upon submission. Failing to keep registration details current can create mismatches that complicate return filing, e-way bills, and refund claims.

Why choose us

Why keeping registration details current matters

What sets our approach apart.

Mismatches create downstream problems

An outdated address or bank account on your GST registration can cause issues with e-way bills, refunds, or notices reaching the wrong place.

Core changes need approval, not just filing

Changes like a shift in principal place of business or addition of a partner require the jurisdictional officer's approval, which can take time if documentation is incomplete.

Delayed reporting can attract scrutiny

Reporting changes well past the 15-day window can raise questions during audits or assessments about when the change actually occurred.
