Local businesses, served online
Taxhive works online. Shops, traders, home businesses and service providers across Mumbai and Thane, from Andheri, Malad, Kandivali, Borivali and Dahisar to Mira Road, Bhayandar and Thane, send us their bills on WhatsApp, by email or as photos, and we do the rest.
The same service is available to businesses anywhere in India, but we know the questions that come up for new shops and traders in Mumbai and Thane: landlords and suppliers asking for a GSTIN, festive-season rushes before due dates, and monthly filing alongside a busy shop.
Opening a new shop?
Landlords, suppliers and banks may ask for a GST number. For businesses that supply only goods, registration is required once your aggregate turnover crosses ₹40 lakh a year (lower in some states, e.g. ₹20 lakh or ₹10 lakh). That higher limit is not available for some items like ice cream, pan masala and tobacco. For services, the limit is an aggregate turnover of ₹20 lakh a year (₹10 lakh in special category states). Sending goods to other states usually needs registration whatever your turnover. Selling goods on marketplaces usually does too, with a limited exemption for small sellers who sell only within their own state.
Our GST registration service is ₹999 + GST, one-time, and free if you take a yearly Hive 50 or Hive 100 plan. Some applicants in Maharashtra are asked by the GST portal to visit a GST Suvidha Kendra once for biometric Aadhaar verification and to show original documents. If that happens to you, we help you book the slot and tell you what to carry.
Monthly GST filing and bookkeeping
- Hive 50: ₹999/month + GST for up to 50 invoices a month (sales and purchases together), with GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, bookkeeping and reconciliation.
- Hive 100: ₹1,299/month + GST for up to 100 invoices, with a monthly summary of sales & purchases.
- Hive Composition: ₹1,799/quarter + GST for composition dealers, up to 150 invoices a quarter with bookkeeping. See composition filing.
If you pay a consultant ₹2,000–2,500 a month, that’s ₹24,000–30,000 a year. Compare it with Hive 50 at ₹9,990/year + GST on our switch and save page.
Due dates to keep in mind
Monthly filers: GSTR-1 by the 11th and GSTR-3B by the 20th of the next month. Quarterly (QRMP) filers: optional IFF by the 13th and PMT-06 tax payment by the 25th in the first two months of a quarter, then GSTR-1 by the 13th and GSTR-3B by the 22nd (Maharashtra) after the quarter. We send reminders before each due date, so you can send your data in time.
How it works
- WhatsApp or call us and tell us about your business.
- Send your bills each month, as photos, PDFs, Excel or paper scans.
