GST Suvidha

GST Suvidha Provider (GSP) refers to a service provider that assists taxpayers in fulfilling the requirements of the GST law using its web platform. GSP stands for GST Suvidha Provider, and these entities play a crucial role in facilitating GST compliance for taxpayers.

GST Suvidha Provider (GSP) is an acronym for Goods and Service Tax Suvidha Provider. A GSP functions as a service provider, aiding taxpayers in adhering to the GST law through its web platform. This platform serves as a medium through which taxpayers can manage various aspects of GST compliance. The Goods and Service Tax Network (GSTN) is the recipient of the returns filed by companies through the assistance of GST Suvidha Providers.

GSPs are unique entities authorized to develop platforms that facilitate taxpayer compliance with GST regulations. The introduction of GST represents a significant tax reform in the history of India. Various GST system functionalities, including registration, return filing, tax payment, and invoice uploading, are accessible through Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). GSTN has mandated that GST Suvidha Providers undergo system audits in accordance with ISO standards before integrating their platforms with the GST Network. This is particularly important as the country prepares for a substantial overhaul of its indirect tax regime, with numerous businesses expected to upload their purchase-sale invoices on the GST Network daily.

GSPs have been advised to ensure their systems undergo auditing based on prevailing ISO security standards, with certification from one of the auditors listed by CERT-IN, before establishing connections and commencing data transfer into the GST System.
