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.

Provisions

Rule 19(1), CGST Rules 2017; Rule 8, CGST Rules 2017

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.

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

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