The main feature of CST Act is that it allows concessional sale @2% (as of now) against C form. The main question that arises, whether under GST scenario concessional sale at 2% will continue or not? Let’s examine the above question with respect to existing laws and amendments made in the recent past.
Section 22 of CGST deals with the persons who are required to be registered under GST. It says, Every supplier shall be liable to be registered under this Act in the State or Union territory, other than special category States, from where he makes a taxable supply of goods or services or both, if his aggregate turnover in a financial year exceeds twenty lakh rupees:
Every supplier whose aggregate turnover in a financial year exceeds twenty lakh rupees shall be liable to be registered under the Goods and Service Tax. He will be registered in the State or Union territory, other than special category States, from where he makes a taxable supply of goods or services or both.
A hotel where the room tariff exceeds Rs 1,000 is liable for service tax at 15 percent. An abatement of 40% is allowed on the tariff value bringing the effective rate of service tax down to 9%. The Value Added Tax 5.5% to 14.5% and luxury tax will still apply.
Any Person whose aggregate turnover (Taxable + Exempted) in preceding financial year did not exceed 75 Lac (50 Lac for special category states), then that person can apply for registration under composition scheme.
To be Filed by the 20th of the Next Month by the recipient and supplier of Goods/Services (i.e. every registered taxpayer), this Return is divided into 2 parts A & B and it shall contain the following details.
The meaning of Supply is very wide in GST and it covers all forms of supply of goods or services or both via sale, transfer, barter, exchange, license, rental, lease or disposal made or agreed to be made for a consideration by a person in the course or furtherance of business. Infact there are certain specific transaction without consideration also considered to be supply.
GST i.e Goods and service tax or according to our Rajasthani folks GST means Ghadho saaro Tax. Yes offcourse it is not like this but for general public who are still not aware of what is GST and what changes are to be implying to them after the implementation of GST .
Bringing GST regime into reality, all required steps are being taken up to successfully implement GST from July 1, 2017. Another important step taken up with respect to Registration for GSTP, TDS & e-commerce operators (TCS). Yes, registration for all these are open from June 25, 2017.
Indeed, rolling out of GST from July 1, 2017 is unstoppable. But to provide relief to the taxpayers, GST Council in its latest meeting, extended the time period for filing of return i.e. FORM GSTR-1 & FORM GSTR-2 for the first two months after the roll out of GST.
