Evidence before action

Evidence before action. Check the cause, evidence to keep, exact recovery steps, and escalation. Based on GST Registration After Company Incorporation.

Start here

Keep incorporation documents and PAN, business model and first contracts or invoices, place-of-business proof, current CBIC/GST portal guidance relevant to the activity in one folder for this case. Name files with dates and retain original PDFs where possible.

What applies to this exact problem

Keep incorporation documents and PAN, business model and first contracts or invoices, place-of-business proof, current CBIC/GST portal guidance relevant to the activity in one folder for this case. Name files with dates and retain original PDFs where possible.

Record	Use it to verify	Why keep it
Incorporation documents and PAN	Nature of goods or services and where customers are located	Lets you challenge the exact field, charge, date or obligation.
Business model and first contracts or invoices	Expected and actual turnover under the current GST rules	Protects the decision if a portal, account screen or verbal explanation changes.
Place-of-business proof	Whether a compulsory-registration category applies regardless of the usual threshold	Separates a written fact from a sales statement.
Current CBIC/GST portal guidance relevant to the activity	Nature of goods or services and where customers are located	Creates a dated record another reviewer can verify.

Check these first

State the exact expected result and the exact result you have now.
Find the official record that owns the result and compare it with your evidence.
Change one thing at a time, then verify the final state before moving on.

Fix it in this order

State the exact expected result and the exact result you have now.
Find the official record that owns the result and compare it with your evidence.
Create one source-of-truth sheet for names, PAN/passport, addresses, capital, ownership, objects, and registered office.
Use the current MCA workflow and current forms; do not copy an old screenshot tutorial.
When a form is rejected or resubmission is requested, answer the exact remark and avoid changing unrelated fields.
Verify every generated certificate/registration output after approval.
Keep the complete filing trail, DSC/signing record, acknowledgement, and post-incorporation checklist together.

Build the proof pack

MCA SRN/acknowledgement
Identity and registered-office evidence
Final signed forms/attachments
Resubmission remark and correction note

Avoid making the case harder

Sharing DSC credentials casually
Using inconsistent spellings across forms
Assuming name approval equals trademark clearance

How you know it is really fixed

The official record and your real-world result agree.
You have enough written evidence to prove the issue is finished if it returns later.

If it is still not fixed

MCA helpdesk/ticket route
Professional correction where a filing/legal interpretation is involved
Cybercrime/police route for impersonation or payment scams
