What it means in practice
GST Registration is a central regulation that applies uniformly across India, including Jammu & Kashmir. In Jammu & Kashmir, the day-to-day administering authority and the office where filings are submitted will be the Jammu & Kashmir State GST Department alongside the central jurisdictional CGST officer.
Yarn (HSN 5205–5207) and woven fabric (HSN 5208–5212) attract 5% GST; ITC accumulation is common for weavers — registration early avoids working capital lock-in.
