AADHAAR
CARD AND GST ENROLMENT
The Aadhaar Card / UID will not replace these identification
documents but can be used as the sole identification proof when applying for
other things. It will also serve as the basis for Know Your Customer (KYC) norms
used by banks, financial institutions, telecom firms and other businesses that maintain
customer profiles.
Aadhaar numbers will eventually serve as the basis for a database with which disadvantaged Indian
residents can access services that have been denied to them due to lack of
identification documents.

Electronically
Signing
Legal Documents electronically is one of the most important benefits offered by
the Aadhaar card. If any Aadhaar Card holder has a mobile number registered
with Aadhaar Card, the Aadhaar Card holder can eSign legal documents remotely by entering an OTP which will be sent to the registered mobile
number. Such an eSign will be valid and enforceable anywhere in India.
In India, Goods and Services Tax Model
Law has been passed and enrolment of existing Taxpayers in the newly introduced
GST Portal started and signing of legal documents electronically through
Aadhaar Card also introduced.
Persons having no Digital Signature
Certificate (DSC) must enroll in the GST System Portal with E-sign.
E-Sign stands for Electronic Signature.
E-Sign is an online electronic signature service to facilitate an Aadhaar
holder to digitally sign a document. If the Applicant opts to electronically
sign using the E-Sign service, the following actions are performed:-
Taxpayer need to click on “E sign” button.
System will ask to enter Aadhaar number
of Authorized signatory.
o After validating the
Aadhaar Number, the GST system Portal will send a request to UIDAI system to
send a One Time Password (OTP).
o UIDAI system will
send OTP to email address and mobile number registered against Aadhaar number.
System will prompt user to enter OTP.
The user will enter the OTP and submit
the document.
The e-Signing process is complete.
AADHAAR AND
GST PORTAL
For filing of enrolment
application Aadhaar Card is not mandatory.
However at the time of submission of enrolment application at GST System
Portal, usage of Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) or Aadhaar based E-signing
is necessary.
The Taxpayers who were not
having Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) furnishes the enrolment details in
the GST System Portal with E sign and the system window displays a message
“Success. Thank you for submission. System will verify / validate the
information submitted after which acknowledgement will be sent in next 15
minutes”.
Once the enrolment
application is successfully submitted a unique Application Reference Number
(ARN) is generated and a message will be sent to the email and mobile number
with unique Application Reference Number (ARN).
In few cases GST enrolment
is incomplete and hence ARN not received from the GST Portal.
REASONS FOR
NON RECEIPT OF APPLICATION REFERENCE NUMBER (ARN) ON COMPLETION OF GST
ENROLMENT IN GST SYSTEM PORTAL
1. The GST Registration will be allotted
afresh and the same will be based on Permanent Account Number (PAN). (The GSTIN will consist 15 characters and first two characters
will be State Code and next 10 digits will be as in PAN Card.) Hence the
name of the proprietor or partners or directors or name of the concern should
be entered as available in the PAN Card without any change. If there are any
differences between the PAN Card and the particulars furnished in the enrolment
application a message will be sent to the email address. (It is observed that details of following PAN’s are not
matched with CBDT database. Kindly fill
the details as per PAN details and resubmit the form.) The mismatch details should be rectified and
form to be resubmitted.
2. At the time of submission of enrolment
application in the GST Portal emSigner software to be installed in the
computer. If the emSigner software is
not installed click the link given below and install the emSigner software.
3. The OTP will be sent only to the Mobile
Number registered with Aadhaar by UIDAI.
If the Landline Telephone Number is registered in the Aadhaar no message
will be received. Similarly if the
mobile number registered at the time of enrolment of Aadhaar, and SIM Card
changed subsequently, message will be sent to the old mobile number registered
with Aadhaar and no message will be sent to the present mobile number. In such cases Aadhaar Card details were to be
corrected mentioning the present mobile number through the Aadhaar Card
correction centres or using self service online portal and then only OTP will
be received to the mobile and the same to be entered in GST Portal. Similarly
each and every existing Taxpayer must have mobile phone to receive OTP and
other details from the GST Portal. (The Name, Address, Mobile Phone Number,
Gender and Date of Birth etc., may be changed with proof of documents wherever necessary).
4. The OTP received from the UIDAI System
Portal should be entered in the enrolment application immediately without any
delay. (i.e. within 30 minutes) (If the GST Portal is closed in the system,
fresh OTP to be obtained and entered).
HOW TO ASCERTAIN

mistakes and omissions a message will be visible. “Success.

submitted after which acknowledgement will be sent in next 15 minutes”.
