Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

Common questions

Is Gstinapi MCP safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: GSTINAPI_API_KEY

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.2) reached the registry 2 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

Copied from the maker’s repo as written. PopNx MCP has not reviewed or endorsed it. HTML, images and scripts are removed. Links lead off this site.

gstinapi-mcp

An MCP server for gstinapi.in — GSTIN verification, GST return/compliance history and HSN/SAC code lookup, callable directly from Claude and other MCP clients.

This is a thin wrapper around the REST API at gstinapi.in/docs. It holds no logic of its own — every tool call is one authenticated HTTP request, and the response is returned as-is.

Setup

Get a free API key — up to 100 free lookups (25 on signup, 25 for each of three setup steps), no card required: https://www.gstinapi.in/register
Add this server to your MCP client config, e.g. for Claude Desktop / Claude Code (claude_desktop_config.json or .mcp.json):

"mcpServers": { "gstinapi": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "gstinapi-mcp"], "env": { "GSTINAPI_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here" } } } }

No install step — npx fetches it on first use.

Tools

Tool	What it does
`verify_gstin`	Live registration lookup: legal name, status, taxpayer type, address
`get_gstin_returns`	GSTR-1/3B filing history for a financial year
`get_gstin_compliance`	Filing history summarised — counts, lag, last period
`get_gstin_filing_preference`	Monthly vs quarterly (QRMP), quarter by quarter
`lookup_hsn_code`	Official description for an HSN/SAC code
`search_hsn_codes`	Find HSN/SAC codes from a description
`get_usage_stats`	Today's call count for the key (free)

Full field-level reference: https://www.gstinapi.in/docs

Accuracy notes

Every GSTIN lookup queries the GST network live — nothing is cached.
No GST rate is returned from the HSN endpoints — a rate depends on more than the code alone, and the government's own master publishes no rate column.

Billing

Pay-per-use credits on your gstinapi.in account, no separate charge for this MCP server. Pricing: https://www.gstinapi.in/pricing
