Time & cost involved in tax compliance to reduce dramatically: CBIC Chairman

July 27, 2018 1119 Views 0 comment Print

The 28th meeting of the GST Council was held on 21st July, 2018. Several important and consumer friendly decisions have been taken in the meeting. The time and cost involved in tax compliance has also been dramatically reduced by enabling businesses with an annual turnover of up to Rs. 5 Crore to file quarterly returns, in lieu of monthly returns, along with the simplification of the return format itself. I urge you all to become familiarized with the changes in law and procedures so as to act as facilitators in furthering the Government’s resolve to enhance Ease of doing Business.
