The GeM registration Procedure for a seller is as follows:
- Step 1: Create a Seller Account on GeM
Account creation is the first stage in the GeM seller registration process. Only an Authorized Person (Director of the Organization or a Key Person/Proprietor) should register on GeM. Sellers can register on GeM using the Aadhaar or PAN card of an organization's key person.
- Step 2: Update Organization Profile
PAN Validation, Company Details, Office Location, and Bank Account are the four essential components of the Company Profile that must be completed. MSE, Startup, and Tax Assessment are three other possible components. Following the profile update, the caution money payment must be given in accordance with the turnover.
- Step 3: Vendor Assessment on GeM
Sellers must apply for Vendor Assessment on GeM after paying the caution money to receive the OEM certificate. Sellers that want to participate in the public procurement of Q1 and Q2 product categories must complete the GeM Vendor Assessment. Regardless of the product category, they intend to sell on the GeM Portal, manufacturers must become OEMs. The Quality Council of India conducts vendor evaluations for GeM. (QCI).
- Step 4: Brand Listing
Vendors can include their brands in the applicable area of products and services after becoming an OEM on GeM. Vendors can mention their brands, whether they have a trademark, are the owner of a trademark, or sell unbranded goods.
- Step 5: Product Listing
Dealers, producers, and service providers must then offer their products and services on the GeM site after their brands have been listed. Product listing on the Government e-Marketplace is the name of the procedure. After the GeM Authority authorizes the listing, the sellers'/vendors' items and services will be available on the GeM website.
- Step 6: Bid Participation and Appointment of Resellers
Sellers can participate in GeM bidding and receive orders after offering their products and services. After receiving clearance, OEMs can appoint or authorize resellers to list their products and services.
