The CBIC issued comprehensive instructions for processing GST registration applications, establishing clear guidelines for tax officers to streamline and standardize the verification process. Key directives include: (a) accepting one documentary proof for principal place of business ownership, (b) restricting additional document requests, (c) mandating registration approval within 7-30 days depending on risk assessment, and (d) prohibiting presumptive queries unrelated to submitted documents.
