Returns filing: 1.Filing of various returns shall increase the compliance and that too within a period of 10-15 days would be cumbersome to finalise the details. 2.Return towards Inward Supplies (GSTR-2) to be filed within 15 days, whereas Para 3.2.3 provides due date of 17 days- this needs clarification. 3.As per the summary of returns, due date of Return for NRI(GSTR-5)is last day of registration, whereas Para 3.5 provides due date within 7 days of expiry of registration. Needs clarification

As per Para 3.12, it has been provided to revise the returns already filed by debit / credit notes. Question arises as to how manual errors, typographical mistakes, etc be rectified through these documents. Alternatively, some columns may be provided in return for rectification of errors so that the same can be regularized.

As per Para 3.10(11)on input service provider(ISD) methodology on distribution of ISD credit has not been specified. Also whether ISD can be distributed of IGST or CGST/SGST kindly clarify.
As per Para 5 requires a reconciliation between Annual Return and Audited Financial Statement. As most of the entities do not have State-wise Annual Reports it would be difficult to comply with this requirement. Methodology of gross profit computation would be as per accounting standards or as per GST laws.

After an Hardship of 10-20 & more years of practice again STP's should go for bread and butter with Pvt company. Gov't should think and add stp's to add in gst returns. Otherwise its not a favourable move in reforms doing unemployment after such an hardship. Osman Shariff.

Amazon India - Recommendations on business processes for GST on return

up coming GST Act is without sales tax practitioners sudden unemployment will be created directly and indirectly. The GST should not provide only one class of practitioner. They also consider STP's who given their whole life for sales tax practice for their family and their dependents. So my request to consider STP's in this act. and STP's are very much capable. I hope the finance minister will look into matter seriously about our bread and butter. "Hare Krishna"

STP's have been practicing VAT, Income Tax, Service Tax and Central Excise since many years and contributing immensely in revenue collection. They are well versed in all the tax laws. they have given employment opportunity to lakhs of people across India. Please authorize us to certify GSTR-8 annual return under GST Act

Greetings from Karnataka State Tax Practitioners Association.
Respected Sir/ Madam, It is my humble request to kindly consider the provisions of Rule 12A of Income tax Rules,1962 where 5 class of professionals empowered to prepare returns. The Best Example is from Karnataka Sales Tax Rules, where Form 52-C certified by STP`s & the same transited to KVAT Rules in Form VAT 240. These rules should also be continued in GST Regime for a harmonious & encouraging voluntary tax compliances. Thank You.

Ignoring ITP's and STP's in GST System shows that, the ministry of commerce has never thought about their valuable contribution to the Indian economy. The Tax Practitioners are well versed in the direct & Indirect tax, Rules, Act. etc. of Indian Govt. and they are providing good service as well as educating clients/assesses to pay the tax and development of Indian revenue. so please consider on review of GST.
