Overview

## What the GST OCR API does

GST OCR reads a GST registration certificate and returns the GSTIN, the legal and trade names, the principal place of business and the registration details printed on it.

In merchant onboarding this is the fastest way to capture a GSTIN accurately. The fifteen-character identifier is easy to mistype, and reading it from the certificate feeds a clean value into GST verification.
