Abstract A Grigorchuk–Gupta–Sidki (GGS)-group is a subgroup of the automorphism group p -regular rooted tree for an odd prime , generated by one and directed automorphism. Pervova proved that all torsion GGS-groups do not have maximal subgroups infinite index. Here, we extend result to nontorsion GGS-groups, which include weakly regular branch, but GGS-group.
