7. Penalty for Non-Registration

Operating without GST registration when mandatory attracts a penalty of 10% of tax due (minimum ₹10,000). For deliberate tax evasion, the penalty rises to 100% of the tax amount. Beyond the financial penalty, Navi Mumbai businesses operating without a GSTIN regularly lose their largest B2B clients — buyers cannot claim ITC on unregistered supplier invoices.

⚠️ Important for Navi Mumbai businesses: GST registration is required before your first taxable supply — not after crossing the turnover threshold. Retrospective registration demands include penalties and interest on all past taxable supplies. Register early — it is free and opens significant business opportunities.
