GST lets you amend your registration details, but the process depends on what you're changing. Some fields need officer approval (core); others update automatically (non-core).

Core amendments (need approval)

  • Principal or additional place of business.
  • Adding/removing promoters or partners.
  • Legal name (non-PAN) changes.

Non-core amendments (auto)

  • Contact details like phone and email.
  • Bank account details.
  • Minor descriptive fields.
