Aadhaar Authentication / e-KYC for Existing Taxpayers on GST Portal

8
  • Functionality for Aadhaar Authentication and e-KYC where Aadhaar is not available has been deployed on GST Common Portal w.e.f. 6th January 2021, for existing taxpayers. 
  • All taxpayers registered as Regular Taxpayers (including Casual Taxable Person, SEZ Units/Developers), ISD and Composition taxpayers can do their Aadhaar Authentication or e-KYC on GST Portal. 
  • This is not applicable for Government Departments, Public Sector Undertakings, Local Authorities and Statutory Bodies.

What is Aadhaar Authentication or e-KYC?
  •  If Aadhaar is available, the Primary Authorized signatory and 1 person who is Proprietor/Partner/Director /Managing Partner/ Karta of the entity registered can go for the Aadhaar Authentication.
  • In absence of Aadhaar, they can upload any of the following documents to undergo e-KYC:
      • Aadhaar Enrolment Number
      • Passport
      • EPIC (Voter ID Card)
      • KYC Form
      • Certificate issued by Competent Authority
      • Others
How to do Aadhar Authentication/ e-KYC on Portal ?
  • When an existing registered taxpayer would log in, a pop-up with Question will be shown “Would you like to authenticate Aadhaar of the Partner/Promotor and Primary Authorized Signatory “ with the two options “Yes, navigate to My Profile” and “Remind me later”.
  • If the taxpayer clicks on the “Remind me later” pop-up will be closed and the user can navigate anywhere on the GST portal.
  • If the taxpayer clicks on “Yes, Navigate to My Profile”, the system will navigate to My Profile. In MY PROFILE, a new tab “Aadhaar Authentication status” has been shown from where the link for Aadhaar Authentication to the Primary Authorized Signatory and one of promoters/partners as selected by him will be sent.
[Note: If the same person is Primary Authorized Signatory and Partner/Promoter, Aadhaar authentication is only required to be done for that person.]

  • On the My profile page, in addition, to SEND AADHAAR AUTHENTICATION LINK, the UPLOAD E-KYC DOCUMENTS option would also be displayed to taxpayers from where they can upload the e-KYC documents on Portal. 
  • In this case, the process of e-KYC authentication would be subject to the approval of uploaded e-KYC documents by the Tax Official.
