1. Identity & promoter proof

What documents are needed for GST registration?
Identity proof (PAN, Aadhaar, photo), address proof (NOC, registered Rent Agreement, matching Utility Bill), and business proof (incorporation/partnership docs, bank details).
Do requirements differ for a virtual office?
No — the same address-proof set applies. A VPOB simply provides a compliant NOC, Rent Agreement and Utility Bill.
