Relevant Tweet is as follows:-
GST Retruns submission and filing is becoming –
” sword of Damocles” -, any situation threatening imminent harm or disaster.” for public at large, professionals even in metros and urban cities- keep aside the rural country side for awareness of unending changes and amendments that too not with retrospective effect from july17 for blunders corrections from date of notification. what was legally wrong on 1st july17 is legally permitted upto subsequent date of notification for corrective action taken by govt – how public to account same.
the gst law online returns filing system are clashing with companies act quarterly closing of accounts and confusions are created to professionals. most of govt departments are not quoting gst regsitrations in their work contract bills certified and even high court lawyers in practice did not even take the gst registrations till date, the gst should be put on back burbner till fully evolved as law and revenue be collected from public on best judgement asessments by respective gst commissionerate offices os only solution to come out of this onlien web based gst nussiance. the focus is more on gst and less on doing business to generate business revenue to meet business expenses including gst. business is suffering sir?
it will be historic achievement of Ms. RUCHE ISHT, Under Secy.- revenue dept- finance ministry to issue unending notification of GST law abrupt implementation.the government is directly experimenting GST law on public by web site domain created by infosys/tcs etc.
the blunders in gst execution to public are:-
01. Entire indirect system abruptly tried to be controlled by web site designed by infosys/tcs?
02. yvapar lakshmi -goddess of business money cannot be controlled by web site and should be permitted free flow of business/money circulation in business cycle by putting govt. systems and controls to avoid revenue filtration if any,
03. The gstr 2 retrun filing from july17 is held up. gstr 3b is stated to be only a declaration type of return and not enforceable for gst computation by errors/omission typed in the gstr 3B return. the businessman will refuse to follow GST if their business are not put to same level as per-gst for tax outflows irrespective online matching or mis matching of gstr 1 & 2 returns etc which is childish experiment of nandan nilekeni & co without any understanding of business needs are operating gst software for their business- sitting on eiffel towers – it is warned that, blood and sweat is contributed in hard work by labour which is taxed @18% in gst , the labour charges was outside tax purview in pre-gst era for vat/service tax?
04. the gst not doing good in revenue collections either to govt and not allowing the businessman and professional to do business with free mind and focus on increasing business revenues, employment, profitability and prosperity.
05. gst council instead of gst commissionerate offices taking the decisions on gst rates, gst administration without knowing ground realities and feed back from the commissionerate offices for gst impact on public as per pre-gst and gst.
06. gst dept is requested to publish the gstin registration numbers of all state and central govt establishments and all practicing advocates of apex courts of law of nation and all states. The gst council will get answers why the advocates have not taken gst registration and why the GTA and advocate fees etc are kept still under reverse charge mechanism though rcm is abolished till mar18 need replies directly from lawyer finance minister himself. gst registration is not full proof?
07. due to online gst web site -gstin registration problems of migration of vat compulsory registrations etc the validity dates of gst registration certificates and business transactions precede the dates of gst validity dates as per gst registrations and clashing with the dates for accounting as per company act accounting system
08. In work contract services the gst system is not capturing the computation for valuation of supply , since the work bill from govt will not be related to that month but since certified based on milestones and govt budgets etc the gstin system of monthly invoice filing gstr-1 retrun for full value of invoice will be irrational and involve sudden and huge output tax since the expenses related to present claim bill expenses would be accounted in work done period of past and not relevant to current month. for this certificate from gst dept. to be suibmitted for recomputation of the gst output tax which is not cparturred in gstin web site.
09. valuation of supply unde rule 30-31 of gst are shown in gst act/rules, but the gstin protal does not permit any other mode of entering the gstin output tax entry other than gst rate*invoice amount which is very childish for techno-commercial bills related to huge and complex construction works. hence requested to just stope the gstin portal filing of returns till full gst system is evolved allow public to do business by filing returns manually and scrap the entire matching and mis matching gst 1 & 2.
“response to gst returns from public will be revolt”
hope better sense sanmati prevails over gst dept. and scrap the gstuin protal-web based business right away till full gst set up and system is evolved.
