Biometric Aadhaar authentication for GST registration is extended to Andhra Pradesh through an amended notification. Biometric-based Aadhaar authentication is extended for GST registration under the Andhra Pradesh Goods and Services Tax Rules, 2017 by amending the earlier notification issued in G.O.Ms. No. 62. The amendment substitutes the reference to the States of Gujarat and Puducherry with a reference to the States of Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat and Puducherry, thereby bringing Andhra Pradesh within the notification governing Aadhaar-based biometric verification in the GST registration process.
