2. How will I file returns if I avail the option of composition in the middle of a quarter?  New entrants to this scheme shall have to file return in Form GSTR-4 only for that portion of the quarter from when the scheme becomes operational and shall file return as a normal taxpayer for the preceding tax period.
3. Am I eligible for composition if I am also providing a service which is exempted under GST?  Yes, persons who are otherwise eligible for availing the composition scheme and are providing any exempt service, shall be eligible for the composition scheme.

5.  My aggregate turnover is less than Rs. 20 lacs but I made some inter-state supply of services. Do I need to register under GST?  No, if your aggregate turnover is less than Rs. 20 lacs, you do not need to register just because you are making inter-state supply of goods.
