Anyone here has experience with getting a virtual office for business registration? I need it for doing a GST registration for my freelancing. Virtual offices cost 1000rs/mo and that feels too expensive to me because I won’t using any virtual office facilities.

Where did you find one for 1k/mo. I could only find more expensive ones like 6k/mo when I was looking for it 😮

@refined-vegetable-38843 at myHQ Delhi and also with my CA office in Delhi. 1k/m is the minimum and just comes with mail handling I think.

@rough-autumn-89795 why are you doing GST Reg for freelancing? Is it really needed? I don't think anyone cares unless you cross 20-25L per financial year
12 filling per year is such a pain & absolute time waste

@swift-pilot-25722 because my income crosses that threshold. I think GST is mandatory after a certain threshold.

makes sense, then go for it - not sure why you are concerned with 1K/mo - that's extremely cheap in my opinion actually. An alternate idea is to use a Pvt ltd company post that threshold to keep your money if you have that in your vicinity/family etc

concerned because I already know someone with a gst number they got without renting a virtual office (parent’s house as address proof). So didn’t like the idea of paying 1k/mo for this. But I have asked around and it seems paying 1k/mo or more is inevitable. In that case, I will just use my parent’s house in my hometown for address proof for gst. Will require some hassle at start but it should help me avoid 1k/m recurring charge.

@rough-autumn-89795 My GST registration is on my house which I have registered for my shop act license as well. Has not been an issue. Parents house should be fine. If in the same state, even better.
