The Central Goods and Services Tax (CGST) Delhi East Commissionerate successfully launched its GST Registration Campaign on 21-22 March, 2025, with the aim of encouraging greater registration and compliance under the Goods and Services Tax (GST) regime. This initiative sought to engage unregistered manufacturers and traders in falling under the jurisdiction of CGST Delhi East to help them understand the importance of registering with the GST Department and complying with the provisions of the law, like: • Hallan Chowk, Old Seelampur • Gole Baithak, Old Seelampur • Jacket Market of Jaffrabad and • Subhash Road, Gandhi Nagar • New Seelampur GST Helpdesks were set up at the above locations to address queries and help in the GST registration process. This initiative received a warm and encouraging response from the local trade community, many of whom were previously unregistered, often conducting their transactions primarily in cash, which has a negative impact on the Indian economy. Over the course of the campaign, more than 2,000 queries from traders were addressed by GST officers, who provided valuable assistance with the registration process. The drive proved to be a success, with a significant number of unregistered traders coming forward to voluntarily register their businesses under GST, with more than 100 registration applications being generated on spot after following due process. As part of the outreach efforts, 200 students from reputed Universities were invited to be GST Ambassadors to create awareness for the two-day campaign. These volunteers/GST Ambassdors were closely monitored and guided by a large team of GST officers comprised of 10 Assistant Commissioner/Deputy Commissioners and more than 80 officials.
