Every 15-character GSTIN starts with a 2-digit state code. A GSTIN that begins with 27 is registered in Maharashtra. The next 10 characters are the business's PAN, followed by the entity number, the letter "Z" and a checksum digit.
Example: 27ABCDE1234F1Z5 → registered in Maharashtra, PAN ABCDE1234F.
