GSTN Portal Update: Increase in Document Upload Size for Place of Business in New Registration:

GSTN Portal Update: Increase in Document Upload Size for Place of Business in New Registration The Goods and Services Tax Network (GSTN) has issued a new update on the portal for the GST new users. A detailed guideline for the changes implemented on the GSTN Portal concerns the increase in the document upload size in the Principal Place of Business and Additional Place of Business sections for New GST Registration and Amendment. The citizens were complaining about the previous size restrictions as their files were usually compressed, which decreased their quality; furthermore, they regularly received notifications about unreadable files. These changes address complaints from the trade community about this issue.

What has Changed?

In the Principal Place of Business and Additional Places of Business tabs, the taxpayers can upload the following documents with a maximum size of 500 KB.

Document Type	Document Name	Earlier Document Size	New Document Size	Type of Document
Proof of Principal Place of Business and Additional Place of Business	1. Municipal Khata Copy 2. Electricity Bill 3. Consent Letter 4. Property Tax Receipt	100 KB	500 KB	JPEG/PDF

These improvements are for the purpose of making changes in GST registration as well as amendments to larger documents easier.
