Answer in brief
Before you pay GST on a bill, you can check if the seller is allowed to charge it. We look up the GSTIN on the GST portal, check whether it is active and regular (not composition), check the rate and the maths, and tell you what to do if something is wrong.
Every paid answer is checked by a CA. Free AI answers are labelled until a CA verifies them.
