With the GST coming into effect from 1st July, 2017, the biggest indirect tax reform of independent India, is going to transform the way indirect tax is administered in this country, impacting not just businesses but also the common man. GST is a tax on consumption of goods and services, which is levied at all stages right from manufacturing up to final consumption, with credit of taxes paid at previous stages available as setoff. It is going to remove the tax-on-tax effect through separate Central and State tax laws. In a nutshell, under GST, only value addition will be taxed , hence, reducing the burden of tax to be borne by the final consumer.

The most fundamental change in GST besides the consolidation of multiple taxes, is the use of a robust shared IT infrastructure in its operations. All the forms related to registrations, filing returns and other related activities can now be done through the GSTN Portal.

GST will help build an economically stronger India, with 'One Nation, One Tax, One Market.'

I am a practising CA from Jalandhar Punjab. I want to share an issue about GST. Govt has exempted books and magazines from GST, but on the other hand has levied tax on job work for printing. Please note that almost all publishers of books are getting books printed through job work in the shape of printing, composing, plate making, binding and such many job works which are all now taxable from 5% to 18%. This will directly impact the cost of books, as books are exempt. Needs immediate attention

I AM VERY HAPPY WITH GST AND DEFINITELY WILL HELP FOR OUT GROWTH. BUT, SOME PRODUCTS ARE TO BE LOOKED UPON AS THEY ARE UNDER HEAVY TAX SLABS WHICH SHOULD NOT BE. FOR EXAMPLE, I AM MANUFACTURER OF PLASTIC WATER STORAGE TANKS. THESE PRODUCT HAS BECOME A NECESSITY FOR STORAGE OF WATER IN DAY TO DAY LIFE. THOUGH IT CONTAINS 18% GST. IT CAN BE 5% TO 12% LIKE SOLAR WATER HEATER. SIMILARLY, BATH FITTINGS AND ACCESSORIES ARE NECESSITY FOR MIDDLE CLASS AND LOWER MIDDLE CLASS. BUT, IT IS UNDER 28% GST

I think it is contardictory. We request you to look in this matter and GST should be reduced in these items. Love & Regards Vikas Kumar Ranchi, Jharkhand
