Common reasons for rejection and how to fix them
| Reason | How to fix it |
|---|---|
| Wrong enrolment or registration type (employer or self-employed) | Choose the type that matches you. An employer registers to deduct tax from staff, a professional enrols for himself or herself. |
| PAN, address or business details do not match | Use the same name, PAN and address as in your GST or Shops Act registration. |
| Fee not paid or challan not matched | Pay again through the portal and keep the challan number. |
| Documents are unclear or missing | Upload clear scans of the ID, address proof and the business proof the portal lists. |
