   Facts

   When promoters or partners are added, the portal may ask for Aadhaar authentication of the new person. The link is sent to their registered mobile and email.

2. P

   Provisions and law

   • Rule 19(1), CGST Rules 2017Any change in registration details is filed in REG-14 within 15 days of the change; legal name, places of business and partners or directors need officer approval
   • Rule 8, CGST Rules 2017Application for new registration in REG-01, PAN based and State-wise
3. A

   Analysis

   Core amendments involving a new promoter or partner go through identity checks similar to new registration under Rule 8. If authentication is not completed, the application can be delayed or sent for physical verification. Example: a new partner is added on 10 July; the authentication link goes to her mobile, and she should complete it the same day. Check the live portal for the exact steps, as these change from time to time.

   Conclusion

   1. 1Make sure the new partner's mobile is linked to her Aadhaar.
   2. 2File the core amendment adding her details.
   3. 3Ask her to complete the authentication link quickly.
   4. 4Track the application and reply to any query.

Using a phone number not linked to the person's Aadhaar causes the authentication to fail.
