Let us discuss in this paper how GST enables better tax compliance, willingness of taxpayers to comply with a tax system and make the country move towards tax compliant society.
GSP means GSTN (Goods and Service Tax Network) Suvidha Provider which is considered to play a pivotal role in the roll out GST. It is also considered as the activator to the businesses for a paperless tax compliance regime and brings more ease in doing business.
During the transition of Local Government General sales tax to State VAT and the subsequent initiatives of E Governance, similar to GST, many state Governments made various attempts. But they did not bring the desired result.
GST law provides for Goods and Services Tax Compliance Rating which is a new concept in India. Presently, there is no system of compliance rating under any tax laws in India. GST compliance rating is a concept which will be experimented as a legal provision for the first time in our country. Accordingly, every taxable person shall be assigned a GST compliance rating score based on his record of compliance with the provisions of the GST Act. Every taxable person irrespective of its nature or size or turnover shall be assigned a GST compliance rating.
In the GST regime, for any intra-state supply, taxes to be paid are the Central GST (CGST, going into the account of the Central Government) and the State GST (SGST, going into the account of the concerned State Government). For any inter-state supply, tax to be paid is Integrated GST (IGST) which will have components of both CGST and SGST. In addition, certain categories of registered persons will be required to pay to the government account Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) and Tax Collected at Source (TCS).
Under Section 143 of GST Law, the CENVAT or Input Tax Credit carried forward in the last return prior to GST under earlier law be available as ITC under GST. The registered taxable person shall be entitled to such credit and it will get credited to his electronic credit ledger.
Collection of Tax at Source: Every electronic commerce operator shall, collect the tax at the time of credit of any amount to the account of the supplier of goods and / or services or at the time of payment of any amount towards the supply of goods and / or services made through it.
