GST Identification Number: What Is It?

GSTIN is the new system for combining registration numbers for numerous indirect taxes, including excise taxes, service taxes, and VAT. Each GST registered individual is given a GSTIN, which is 15 digits long, based on their PAN. Taxpayers also receive it once the GST registration process is completed. It appears on all invoices sent and received by registered taxpayers and organizations.

Format for GST Numbers

Below is a breakdown of the GSTIN format:

• A state code is represented by the first two numbers. States have their own codes. The state code for Telangana is 36, while the state code for Tamil Nadu is 33.
• The PAN number is required of taxpayers registered for GST.
• The thirteenth digit, or entity code, is determined by how many registrations a state has.
