GST Registration Needed in Andhra Pradesh Despite Exempt Goods Due to Aggregate Turnover Exceeding Rs 40 Lakh (Section 23(1)).

The query concerns whether GST registration is required in Andhra Pradesh. Responses highlight that, under Section 23(1) of the APGST Act, businesses dealing exclusively in exempt goods are not liable for registration. However, aggregate turnover, including exempted supplies, is considered for GST registration.
