GST Amendment Filing refers to the process of updating or modifying the details submitted during GST registration. Businesses are legally required to update their GST profile when there is a change in business name, address, additional locations, key personnel, or other relevant fields.
Amendments are categorized into two types — Core Fields (requiring officer approval) and Non-Core Fields (updated automatically). Filing amendments on time helps maintain transparency, prevent penalties, and ensure uninterrupted operations.
