Hi,
I am a trader and have VAT registration. I was planning to get the service tax registration but didn't do it because of GST being rolled out soon.
After I will be migrated to GST, do I have to file any separate document in order to expand my business activity by including services along with existing trading activities or I can just simply start rendering services and charge service tax as applicable under GST law?
