GST Registration Amendment
Update trade name, address, partners or business activity on your GST certificate through the correct amendment route.
Your GST certificate has to match reality. When you move premises, change a partner, add a business activity or correct a trade name, the registration must be amended — and until it is, your invoices and returns carry particulars that no longer hold.
Amendments fall into two categories, and the difference matters. Core field changes need an officer’s approval; non-core changes take effect on their own once you file them.

Core and non-core fields
Core fields are the ones printed on the registration certificate. Changing them requires approval, and the officer may raise a query before granting it.
- Core — legal name of the business, where PAN does not change
- Core — principal place of business, and any additional place of business
- Core — addition or removal of partners, directors, karta or trustees
- Non-core — bank account details
- Non-core — email address and mobile number of the authorised signatory
- Non-core — goods and services listed, within limits
The fifteen-day rule
An application to amend must be filed within fifteen days of the change occurring. It is a short window and it runs from the event, not from when you get round to it.
Where a core field change is approved, it takes effect from the date of the event rather than the date of approval, which is why filing promptly matters for the periods in between.
What cannot be amended
- PAN — a change in PAN means a new registration, not an amendment
- A change in the constitution of the business that results in a different PAN
- The state of registration — moving states requires fresh registration there
- Change from one type of taxpayer to another, in some cases
How we handle it
- 1 Classifying the change We establish whether the amendment touches core or non-core fields, since that decides whether approval is needed.
- 2 Assembling proof The supporting documents for the change are collected and checked against the details being entered.
- 3 Filing The amendment application is filed on the portal within the fifteen-day window.
- 4 Answering queries Where the officer raises a query in Form GST REG-03, we file the reply within the time allowed.
- 5 Amended certificate The approved amendment produces a revised certificate, which we send to you for display.
Frequently asked questions
How long do I have to file an amendment?
Fifteen days from the date the change occurs. The period runs from the event itself, so a change made and forgotten is already late.
Can I change my PAN on an existing registration?
No. A change in PAN means a different legal person, so a fresh registration is required and the old one surrendered.
What if I am moving to another state?
GST is state-specific. You need a new registration in the destination state and should cancel the old one once operations have ceased there.
Do I need approval to change my bank account?
No. Bank details are a non-core field and the change takes effect on filing without an officer’s approval.
What happens if I do not amend?
Your certificate and invoices carry incorrect particulars, which causes mismatches, can invalidate input credit for your customers, and is itself a contravention.
What is not included. Government fees, statutory charges, stamp duty, court and registry fees, digital signature costs and any third-party professional charges are separate and payable at actuals. GST applies on professional fees where indicated. Prices shown are indicative and may change without notice; we confirm the total in writing before any work begins — see our terms on pricing.
