GeM Registration
The Government e-Marketplace (GeM) is a revolutionary online procurement platform launched by the Government of India to facilitate transparent, efficient, and cost-effective purchases of goods and services by government departments, ministries, and PSUs.
For businesses, vendors, and service providers, GeM registration is an incredible opportunity to supply directly to the government — one of the largest buyers in India. However, registering on the GeM portal, uploading products/services, and complying with tender requirements can be complex without professional guidance.
At Sinha & Associates, we provide end-to-end GeM Registration Services in Kolkata and across India, helping MSMEs, startups, and established businesses register, list, and succeed on the GeM platform. With over 25 years of expertise in legal, financial, and compliance services, we ensure that your GeM registration is smooth, error-free, and approved on time.
