Such facilities can be provided at banks, post offices and GST Seva Kendras (GSKs). The GSKs can work on the pattern of Passport Seva Kendras to provide new registration facilities with required checks on fake registration, a source said.

Those registrants who do not opt for Aadhaar authentication at the time of registration may have to submit recommendation letter by two taxpayers of adequate reliability, the source added.

Further, also, if on the basis of document supported credentials, a registrant/dealer falls in ‘trustworthy’ category then s/he can be given registration within seven working days.
