Goods and Services Tax
Simplicity and transparency in tax system was the first slogan raised by Finance Ministry many years ago. The integration of states and country in the field of taxation and economy was the need of the hour. The main focus was to introduce a tax system which can develop the economy in an overall manner. Goods and Services Tax is considered the game changer for the Indian economy and taxation system. The main purpose was to provide goods and services to consumers at lower cost by nullifying the cascading effects of indirect taxes such as VAT, Service Tax, State Levies, Octroi and Excise.
The idea of GST was conceived 12 years ago. The bill was kept pending for so many years as there were several steps to introduce it. It was overall not accepted at that time and was sent for more amendments. This proved to be long procedure. Since then many elections concluded, voices were raised but ultimately no result. Finally after coming up of NDA government in the year 2014, the need to introduce the bill became a topic of all. Since several amendments were done.The bill was introduced several times but was opposed .After this many boards were formed to take the ground report, then meetings were held for several times for discussion, introduction and fixing up of rates of GST. Finally after the consensus of all parties on 3rd August 2016 the bill was passed in the Rajya Sabha. Several amendments were done after opposition from several parties. Later the bill was passed by Lok sabha.The bill was adopted by majority of the states, paving the way for the final countdown. The President of India finally gave his assent on 8th September 2016.Several laws were amended. However due to some legal hurdles it could not be introduced on 1st April 2017.
The Goods and Services Tax is going to be introduced in the midnight of June 30 as per the Government sources. It will be a historic moment to record for all of us and the coming generations.
