WHAT IS GST?????
Question 1.What is GST? How does it work?
GST is one indirect tax for the whole nation,
which will make India one unified common market.
GST is a single tax on the supply of goods
and services, right from the manufacturer to the consumer. Credits of input
taxes paid at each stage will be available in the subsequent stage of value
addition, which makes GST essentially a tax only on value addition at each
stage. The final consumer will thus bear only the GST charged by the last
dealer in the supply chain, with set-off benefits at all the previous stages.
Question 2. What are the benefits of
GST?
:The benefits of GST can be summarized as
under:
·
For business and industry
o Easy compliance: A
robust and comprehensive IT system would be the foundation of the GST regime in
India. Therefore, all tax payer services such as registrations, returns,
payments, etc. would be available to the taxpayers online, which would make
compliance easy and transparent.
o Uniformity of tax rates
and structures: GST will ensure that indirect tax rates and structures are
common across the country, thereby increasing certainty and ease of doing
business. In other words, GST would make doing business in the country tax
neutral, irrespective of the choice of place of doing business.
o Removal of cascading:
A system of seamless tax-credits throughout the value-chain, and across boundaries
of States, would ensure that there is minimal cascading of taxes. This would
reduce hidden costs of doing business.
o Improved
competitiveness: Reduction in transaction costs of doing business
would eventually lead to an improved competitiveness for the trade and
industry.
o Gain to manufacturers
and exporters: The subsuming of major Central and State taxes in GST,
complete and comprehensive set-off of input goods and services and phasing out
of Central Sales Tax (CST) would reduce the cost of locally manufactured goods
and services. This will increase the competitiveness of Indian goods and
services in the international market and give boost to Indian exports. The
uniformity in tax rates and procedures across the country will also go a long
way in reducing the compliance cost.
·
For Central and State Governments
o Simple
and easy to administer: Multiple indirect taxes at the Central and State
levels are being replaced by GST. Backed with a robust end-to-end IT system,
GST would be simpler and easier to administer than all other indirect taxes of
the Centre and State levied so far.
o Better
controls on leakage: GST will result in better tax compliance due to a
robust IT infrastructure. Due to the seamless transfer of input tax credit from
one stage to another in the chain of value addition, there is an in-built
mechanism in the design of GST that would incentivize tax compliance by
traders.
o Higher
revenue efficiency: GST is expected to decrease the cost of collection
of tax revenues of the Government, and will therefore, lead to higher revenue
efficiency.
·
For the consumer
o Single
and transparent tax proportionate to the value of goods and services: Due
to multiple indirect taxes being levied by the Centre and State, with incomplete
or no input tax credits available at progressive stages of value addition, the
cost of most goods and services in the country today are laden with many hidden
taxes. Under GST, there would be only one tax from the manufacturer to the
consumer, leading to transparency of taxes paid to the final consumer.
o Relief
in overall tax burden: Because of efficiency gains and prevention of
leakages, the overall tax burden on most commodities will come down, which will
benefit consumers.
Question 3. Which taxes at the
Centre and State level are being subsumed into GST?
Answer:
At the Central level, the
following taxes are being subsumed:
1.
Central
Excise Duty,
2.
Additional
Excise Duty,
3.
Service
Tax,
4.
Additional
Customs Duty commonly known as Countervailing Duty, and
5.
Special
Additional Duty of Customs.
At the State level, the
following taxes are being subsumed:
1.
Subsuming
of State Value Added Tax/Sales Tax,
2.
Entertainment
Tax (other than the tax levied by the local bodies), Central Sales Tax (levied
by the Centre and collected by the States),
3.
Octroi
and Entry tax,
4.
Purchase
Tax,
5.
Luxury
tax, and
6.
Taxes
on lottery, betting and gambling.
Question 4. What are the major
chronological events that have led to the introduction of GST?
Answer: GST is being introduced in the country
after a 13 year long journey since it was first discussed in the report of the
Kelkar Task Force on indirect taxes. A brief chronology outlining the major
milestones on the proposal for introduction of GST in India is as follows:
1.
In
2003, the Kelkar Task Force on indirect tax had suggested a comprehensive Goods
and Services Tax (GST) based on VAT principle.
2.
A
proposal to introduce a National level Goods and Services Tax (GST) by April 1,
2010 was first mooted in the Budget Speech for the financial year 2006-07.
3.
Since
the proposal involved reform/ restructuring of not only indirect taxes levied
by the Centre but also the States, the responsibility of preparing a Design and
Road Map for the implementation of GST was assigned to the Empowered Committee
of State Finance Ministers (EC).
4.
Based
on inputs from Govt of India and States, the EC released its First Discussion
Paper on Goods and Services Tax in India in November, 2009.
5.
In
order to take the GST related work further, a Joint Working Group consisting of
officers from Central as well as State Government was constituted in September,
2009.
6.
In
order to amend the Constitution to enable introduction of GST, the Constitution
(115th Amendment) Bill was introduced in the Lok Sabha in March 2011. As per
the prescribed procedure, the Bill was referred to the Standing Committee on
Finance of the Parliament for examination and report.
7.
Meanwhile,
in pursuance of the decision taken in a meeting between the Union Finance
Minister and the Empowered Committee of State Finance Ministers on 8th
November, 2012, a ‘Committee on GST Design’, consisting of the officials of the
Government of India, State Governments and the Empowered Committee was
constituted.
8.
This
Committee did a detailed discussion on GST design including the Constitution
(115th) Amendment Bill and submitted its report in January, 2013. Based on this
Report, the EC recommended certain changes in the Constitution Amendment Bill
in their meeting at Bhubaneswar in January 2013.
9.
The
Empowered Committee in the Bhubaneswar meeting also decided to constitute three
committees of officers to discuss and report on various aspects of GST as
follows:-
(a) Committee
on Place of Supply Rules and Revenue Neutral Rates;
(b) Committee
on dual control, threshold and exemptions;
(c) Committee
on IGST and GST on imports.
1.
The
Parliamentary Standing Committee submitted its Report in August, 2013 to the
Lok Sabha. The recommendations of the Empowered Committee and the
recommendations of the Parliamentary Standing Committee were examined in the
Ministry in consultation with the Legislative Department. Most of the
recommendations made by the Empowered Committee and the Parliamentary Standing
Committee were accepted and the draft Amendment Bill was suitably revised.
2.
The
final draft Constitutional Amendment Bill incorporating the above stated
changes were sent to the Empowered Committee for consideration in September
2013.
3.
The
EC once again made certain recommendations on the Bill after its meeting in
Shillong in November 2013. Certain recommendations of the Empowered Committee
were incorporated in the draft Constitution (115th Amendment) Bill. The revised
draft was sent for consideration of the Empowered Committee in March, 2014.
4.
The
115th Constitutional (Amendment) Bill, 2011, for the introduction of GST
introduced in the Lok Sabha in March 2011 lapsed with the dissolution of the
15th Lok Sabha.
5.
In
June 2014, the draft Constitution Amendment Bill was sent to the Empowered
Committee after approval of the new Government.
6.
Based
on a broad consensus reached with the Empowered Committee on the contours of
the Bill, the Cabinet on 17.12.2014 approved the proposal for introduction of a
Bill in the Parliament for amending the Constitution of India to facilitate the
introduction of Goods and Services Tax (GST) in the country. The Bill was
introduced in the Lok Sabha on 19.12.2014, and was passed by the Lok Sabha on
06.05.2015. It was then referred to the Select Committee of Rajya Sabha, which
submitted its report on 22.07.2015.
Question 5.How would GST be
administered in India?
Answer:Keeping in mind the federal
structure of India, there will be two components of GST – Central GST (CGST)
and State GST (SGST). Both Centre and States will simultaneously levy GST
across the value chain. Tax will be levied on every supply of goods and
services. Centre would levy and collect Central Goods and Services Tax (CGST),
and States would levy and collect the State Goods and Services Tax (SGST) on
all transactions within a State. The input tax credit of CGST would be
available for discharging the CGST liability on the output at each stage.
Similarly, the credit of SGST paid on inputs would be allowed for paying the
SGST on output. No cross utilization of credit would be permitted.
Question 6.How would a particular
transaction of goods and services be taxed simultaneously under Central GST
(CGST) and State GST (SGST)?
Answer :The Central GST and
the State GST would be levied simultaneously on every transaction of supply of
goods and services except on exempted goods and services, goods which are
outside the purview of GST and the transactions which are below the prescribed
threshold limits. Further, both would be levied on the same price or value
unlike State VAT which is levied on the value of the goods inclusive of Central
Excise.
Question 7.Will cross utilization of credits
between goods and services be allowed under GST regime?
Answer :Cross utilization of
credit of CGST between goods and services would be allowed. Similarly, the
facility of cross utilization of credit will be available in case of SGST.
However, the cross utilization of CGST and SGST would not be allowed except in
the case of inter-State supply of goods and services under the IGST model which
is explained in answer to the next question.
Question 8.How will be Inter-State
Transactions of Goods and Services be taxed under GST in terms of IGST method?
Answer:In case of inter-State transactions, the
Centre would levy and collect the Integrated Goods and Services Tax (IGST) on
all inter-State supplies of goods and services under Article 269A (1) of the
Constitution. The IGST would roughly be equal to CGST plus SGST. The IGST mechanism
has been designed to ensure seamless flow of input tax credit from one State to
another. The inter-State seller would pay IGST on the sale of his goods to the
Central Government after adjusting credit of IGST, CGST and SGST on his
purchases (in that order). The exporting State will transfer to the Centre the
credit of SGST used in payment of IGST. The importing dealer will claim credit
of IGST while discharging his output tax liability (both CGST and SGST) in his
own State. The Centre will transfer to the importing State the credit of IGST
used in payment of SGST.Since GST is a destination-based tax, all SGST on the
final product will ordinarily accrue to the consuming State.
Question 9.How will IT be used for the
implementation of GST?
Answer:For the implementation of
GST in the country, the Central and State Governments have jointly registered
Goods and Services Tax Network (GSTN) as a not-for-profit, non-Government
Company to provide shared IT infrastructure and services to Central and State
Governments, tax payers and other stakeholders. The key objectives of GSTN are
to provide a standard and uniform interface to the taxpayers, and shared
infrastructure and services to Central and State/UT governments.
GSTN is working on developing a
state-of-the-art comprehensive IT infrastructure including the common GST
portal providing frontend services of registration, returns and payments to all
taxpayers, as well as the backend IT modules for certain States that include
processing of returns, registrations, audits, assessments, appeals, etc. All
States, accounting authorities, RBI and banks, are also preparing their IT
infrastructure for the administration of GST.
There would no manual filing of returns. All
taxes can also be paid online. All mis-matched returns would be auto-generated,
and there would be no need for manual interventions. Most returns would be
self-assessed.
Question 10.How will imports be taxed
under GST?
Answer :The Additional Duty of Excise or CVD
and the Special Additional Duty or SAD presently being levied on imports will
be subsumed under GST. As per explanation to clause (1) of article 269A of the
Constitution, IGST will be levied on all imports into the territory of India.
Unlike in the present regime, the States where imported goods are consumed will
now gain their share from this IGST paid on imported goods.
Question 11.What are the major features of
the Constitution (122nd Amendment) Bill, 2014?
Answer :The salient features
of the Bill are as follows:
1.
Conferring
simultaneous power upon Parliament and the State Legislatures to make laws
governing goods and services tax;
2.
Subsuming
of various Central indirect taxes and levies such as Central Excise Duty, Additional
Excise Duties, Service Tax, Additional Customs Duty commonly known as
Countervailing Duty, and Special Additional Duty of Customs;
3.
Subsuming
of State Value Added Tax/Sales Tax, Entertainment Tax (other than the tax
levied by the local bodies), Central Sales Tax (levied by the Centre and
collected by the States), Octroi and Entry tax, Purchase Tax, Luxury tax, and
Taxes on lottery, betting and gambling;
4.
Dispensing
with the concept of ‘declared goods of special importance’ under the
Constitution;
