It is official now. The country may miss the April 1, 2011 deadline for adopting a dual goods and services tax (GST) system. The Finance Minister, Mr Pranab Mukherjee, has now conceded that it may not be possible to introduce GST from April 1 next year. The main bottleneck in achieving this major tax reform is the absence of consensus between the Centre and the States on the required Constitutional Amendment for introduction of GST.
The Supreme Court has held that voltage stabilisers are electronic items which attracted lesser sales tax. Dismissing a batch of appeals from Uttar Pradesh, Commissioner of Trade Tax vs Parikh Gramodyog Sansthan, the court ruled that stabilisers are not electric goods. A voltage stabiliser might have many components some of which use electricity. That cannot be the sole reason for classifying it as an electrical item, the judgment said.
The government is likely to appoint State Bank of India as the clearing bank for the proposed Goods and Services Tax (GST) and National Securities and Depositories Ltd (NSDL) as the clearing corporation for implementing the infrastructure required for inter-state tax administration.
The much awaited new indirect tax regime Goods and Service Tax (GST) is unlikely to be implemented from the scheduled date of April 1, 2011, a top government official said on Tuesday. “In all probability it (the introduction of GST) will miss the deadline,” Revenue Secretary Sunil Mitra said.
Goods and Service tax (GST) is the most talked about topic in the field of indirect taxation today in India. Everybody is keenly waiting for the proposed GST draft which will replace the existing system of VAT in India. The central government wants the GST to be implemented in India by 1st April, 2011. Although there are and will be been many hurdles which are to be crossed before GST is implemented in India.
“Too many cooks spoil the broth” perhaps this would have been in the thoughts of Group on Implementation of GST while analyzing the organizational structure for GST. This group is a committee constituted by the Government that has been framed to analyze all the aspects which will be affected by implementation of GST. On 12.07.2010, the Group has given their report. In this article, we are discussing the administrative changes proposed by the Group under GST regime.
A few months ago, Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi walked up to Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee and said: “Gujarat is awaiting the Goods and Services Tax (GST) eagerly.” On Tuesday, at a meeting of state finance ministers where it was decided that a decision on GST would be deferred by a month, possibly leading to an indefinite postponement in its rollout, BJP-ruled Gujarat was at the forefront in opposing the tax in its present form.
The Finance Minister, Mr Pranab Mukherjee, has told the State Finance Ministers that they are free to fix their own State GST rates, but hopes that they would not exercise this freedom after a consensus is reached in the GST Council. He, thus, has conceded a major demand of the States that the Union Finance Minister should not have the last word on the State GST rates.
The Centre and states were yet again unable to stitch a deal on the constitutional amendments, clouding prospects for rollout of India’s most ambitious indirect taxes reform — goods and services tax — next year. The Union finance minister Pranab Mukherjee, however, promised another draft to address concern raised by the states ruled by leading opposition party BJP and Tamil Nadu where Congress’ key ally DMK is in power.
The Union Finance Minister Shri Pranab Mukherjee had a meeting with the Empowered Committee of State Finance Ministers to finalize the draft Constitutional Amendments on Goods and Services Tax, here today. Addressing the meeting, the Finance Minister emphasized that the primacy of the Legislature in the area of taxation is supreme and inalienable and that the proposed draft on GST did not seek to disturb or alter this in any manner.
