                            In any tax system registration is the most fundamental
                            requirement for identification of tax payers ensuring tax
                            compliance in the economy. Registration of any business
                            entity under the GST Law implies obtaining a unique number
                            from the concerned tax authorities for the purpose of collecting
                            tax on behalf of the government and to avail Input tax credit
                            for the taxes on his inward supplies. Without registration, a
                            person can neither collect tax from his customers nor claim
                            any input tax credit of tax paid by him.
                        
                     
                 
                
                    
                    
                        
                            GST registration usually takes between 2-6 working days and can also depend upon
                            the number of document given by you. For certain businesses, registration under
                            GST is mandatory. If the organization carries on business without registering
                            under GST, it will be an offence under GST and heavy penalties will apply.
                        
                     
                 
                
                    
                    
                        
                            There are four different types of GST as listed below: 
                            The Central Goods and Services Tax (CGST) 
                            The State Goods and Services Tax (SGST) 
                            The Union Territory Goods and Services Tax (UTGST) 
                            The Integrated Goods and Services Tax (IGST) 
                        
                     
                 
                
                    
                    
                        
                            Application Reference Number (ARN) is an acknowledgement issued by GSTN system
                            portal to the taxpayers who have successfully submitted their application after
                            completing the full process. It has come to notice that some of the taxpayers
                            have made ARN mandatory for buying things from their vendors.

                            GST returns essentially stands for filing of all GST. Every individual who is
                            covered under the GST Act must produce their income to the Tax Department of
                            India. This is known as return and it includes details of every sale and
                            purchase.
                        
                     
                 
                
                    
                    
                        
                            Late filing attracts penalty called late fee. The late fee is Rs. 100 per day
                            per Act. So it is 100 under CGST & 100 under SGST. Total will be Rs. 200/day*.
                            The maximum is Rs. 5,000. There is no late fee on IGST in case of delayed
                            filing.
                            
 Along with late fee, interest has to be paid at 18% per annum. It has to be
                            calculated by the taxpayer on the tax to be paid. The time period will be from
                            the next day of filing to the date of payment.
                        
                     
                 
                
                    
                    
                        
                            You will be required to register under GST, even if your business' annual
                            revenue is less than Rs 20 lakh, which is the threshold for businesses which are
                            required to be registered under GST.

                            dividends, capital gains, or other profits.

                            A trademark that meets all three criteria will prevent your trademark from being

                            brand without registering the mark. A "®" mark constitutes a claim of having
                            stronger trademark rights than a "™" mark, which only claims use of a certain
                            sign, independent of actual registration.
                        
                     
                 
                
                    
                    
                        
                            Ideally, you want to trademark them both as two separate trademarks because each
                            would protect different elements of your brand. One would protect the literal
                            part of it, the name, and the other would protect the graphic representation of
                            that name.

        Food licence or FSSAI Licence is granted to all manufacturers,
            traders, 
restaurants carrying out any food business which may
            involve manufacturing or processing.
        
            
                
                    
                    
                        
                            The major importance of the FSSAI License is that it ensures that your food is verified chemically and hence is safe to consume.
                        
                     
                 
                
                    
                    
                        
                            You must renew your food license before the validity of the FSSAI License expires to continue your operation. If your food license is about to expire, stay alert and remember that you must apply 30 days before the FSSAI license or registration expires.
                        
                     
                 
                
                    
                    
                        
                            The FSSAI license number is a 14-digit number on the food package label that contains information about the manufacturer, registration details, the FSSAI emblem, and the brand owner's license number. In the case of an imported food product, the importer must show the FSSAI logo and license number and the importer's name and address.
