REACTION (sporadic) :
This is worthy of special marking, as one more in the long series of instances, in the current decade, strikingly staring in the face, – or sticking out as a sore thumb- bearing on its sleeves- rather crying loud and clear enough but left to be unheard- why a half baked legislation, to its core, of the kind, riddled with basic deficiencies aplenty- is bound to have the inescapable enduring uncertainty, for too long, to be remedied, in one go; or may be, remain irremediable for any length of time, with skyline yonder as the limit in vision.
For a similar instance of a recent origin, of no less gaping uncertainty, coming in the way of implementing and enforcing- not to speak of faithful compliance, – proving a roller coaster experience, is the GST levy on REALTOR; expected to have come into effect from April 1, 2019 , which by a strange coincidence , is officially declared, unashamedly so, annually as ‘AF’ Day .
For a unbiased critique on the referred bizarre developments in the GST Regime, if so care, and mind, look through the thoughts and view points, passionately shared , for profoundly the COMMON GOID, available for FREE in public domain, on a diligent Search !
