GST State Code 07 — Delhi
GST state code 07 is Delhi. Every GSTIN issued in Delhi begins with 07 — the first two characters of a GST number are always the code of the state or union territory that granted the registration.
Example GSTIN registered in Delhi
07AAACR5055K1Z9
Structurally valid and checksum-correct, but illustrative — it is not an issued registration. The highlighted 07 is the state code; the ten characters after it are the holder’s PAN.

Where 07 sits inside a GST number
A GSTIN is 15 characters in a fixed layout. The state code is the part that tells you where the registration was granted, and it is the only part that identifies a place.
| Position | Example | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| 1–2 | 07 | The GST state code — Delhi on this page. |
| 3–12 | AAACR5055K | The holder’s PAN, embedded unchanged. This is why one PAN search returns every GSTIN issued to a business across all states. |
| 13 | 1 | Counts registrations held against the same PAN within Delhi. A second registered business vertical in the same union territory gets 2, and so on. |
| 14 | Z | A fixed letter on every regular GSTIN. It carries no information. |
| 15 | 9 | A check digit computed from the first 14 characters. It catches typos — it does not prove the number was ever issued. |
Because the checksum algorithm is public, a fabricated number can pass a format check and still be entirely fictitious. Confirming that a 07 GSTIN actually exists means looking it up against the live register. Full breakdown of the format: what a GST number is made of.
CGST + SGST or IGST on a Delhi supply?
Comparing state codes is the first check, and for most supplies it settles the question.
Your GSTIN starts 07, place of supply in Delhi
Intra-territory supply. Charge CGST + SGST, split evenly between the centre and the union territory.
Your GSTIN starts with any other code
Inter-state supply. Charge IGST at the combined rate, which the centre later apportions to the consuming state.
Delhi is a union territory but has its own legislature, so it levies SGST like a state rather than UTGST. Getting this backwards is one of the more common GST filing errors.
One caveat worth keeping: the place of supply is not always the customer’s billing address. For several categories of service the IGST Act points somewhere else entirely, so treat the state code as the starting point rather than the conclusion.
Cities and districts under code 07
GST state codes are assigned per state or union territory, never per city. Every business registered anywhere in Delhi carries 07 — including New Delhi. There is no separate GST code for a city, a district or a commissionerate.

GST state code 07 — common questions
Check a Delhi GST number
A GSTIN starting 07 was issued in Delhi — but the code alone does not tell you whether the registration is still active. Look it up against live government records: registered name, current status, places of business and return filing history.
