The Union Finance Minister (FM) on 22 March 2011, introduced a Constitution Amendment Bill (the Bill) in the Lok Sabha to enable the implementation of ‘Goods and Service Tax’ (GST), an indirect tax regime that would subsume levies like excise, service tax and sales tax. The Bill seeks to amend the Constitution to authorise both the Centre and the States to levy taxes on supply of goods and services. This Bill is a culmination of three Draft Amendment Bills circulated by the Central Government – the First Draft dated 21 July 2010, the Second Draft dated 11 August 2010 and the Third Draft dated 28 January 2011.

What do the words ROTI & MAKAN mean to a common man is very well known. These two basic needs of a common man are today very uncommon, thanks to the very high rate of food inflation and extra super inflation in the prices of need based House. What was left to the common man was perhaps, KAPDA i.e. Fabric. But the eagle eye of the central government has eventually fallen on this last lame duck pray so as to smoothen the beginning of the end of the common man. The reason: An expected VAT on FABRIC @ 5% .

Withdrawn tax exemption cannot be reclaimed- An industry which has been granted tax exemption to set up unit in a backward region cannot claim the benefit even after it was withdrawn by the state, the SC stated in the case, State of Haryana vs Mahabir Vegetable Oils Ltd. In this case, the firm set up a solvent extraction plant and enjoyed the sales tax benefit till 1996. That year, the firm was put in the negative list as it was found to be a polluting industry. The benefit was withdrawn since then. This was challenged by the firm in the Punjab and Haryana high court. It allowed its petition and ruled that once the firm invested funds on the promise of tax benefit, the government could not withdraw the exemption mid-way. Reversing this view, the SC emphasised that there was no vested interest in the firm to get the benefit for all times. The government can change the rules in public interest. In this case, the decision to put the firm in the negative list was on account of the unit’s polluting nature, the SC said, allowing the appeal of the state government.

whether Jaljira which is a product manufactured by the respondent herein is only an appetizer and is not a masala and therefore liable to sales tax at the rate of 10% and not 16% ….. There is no doubt that Jaljira is a drink. The contents of Jaljira is put into water and taken as digestive drink but when we look into the manner and method of preparation of the product Jaljira, we find that it is a mixture of different spices after grinding and mixing. Therefore, it is nothing but a Masala packed into packets of different nature/quantity and sold to the consumers. It would, therefore, for all practical purposes would come within the Entry No. 184 and it cannot be said that it would come under the residuary entry as held by the High Court.
