Frequently asked questions
Is GST registration really free anywhere?
The government fee for GST registration is nil everywhere — you only pay a professional/service fee. BatchWise sets that fee to ₹0 inside its Proprietorship Compliance Package (₹14,999/year), so a proprietor on the plan pays nothing extra for the GSTIN. Standalone, both BatchWise and IndiaFilings are ~₹1,499.
Who files the registration?
Both route it to a vetted professional who files FORM GST REG-01 under their own credentials and handles any clarification. BatchWise coordinates; it does not file with the GST department itself.
