(a) when the dealer crosses the threshold limit and; (b) When the dealer makes an application under voluntary scheme of registration Every dealer falling under above categories and having businesses in Maharashtra, have to register their business online under Maharashtra Sales Tax Act. The process of registration commences with the submission of application by taxpayer.
