The taxpayer is fully active. Transactions under this GSTIN are valid, and you can safely claim Input Tax Credit (ITC) on matching purchases.
Temporarily Suspended
This temporary status is usually due to missing return filings or registration discrepancies. Refrain from dealing with suspended GSTINs until resolved.
Registration Revoked
The registration has been cancelled by the taxpayer or officers. Invoices raised are invalid, and any claim on ITC for new purchases will be rejected.

SState Jurisdiction

CCenter Jurisdiction
Controlled by the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC). It handles federal compliance policy, interstate transaction disputes, and integrated tax policy monitoring.
