Govt achieves broad agreement with states on implementation of GST by April 2016

10 Dec 2014 Evaluate

In a major breakthrough, a broad agreement has been achieved with the states on key issues regarding the implementation of the unified tax code, the Goods and Services Tax (GST), which is scheduled to be rolled out from April 2016.

In an attempt to pacify frayed nerves, Minister of State for Finance Jayant Sinha clarified the states would be insulated from the impact of GST on their revenue and eventually the new tax regime will cover petroleum and petroleum products.  The tax under this new regime would be kept normal or zero for time being. So far, states had been demanding that products such as ‘petroleum, alcohol and tobacco’ be kept out of the purview of GST.

Further, he highlighted the government has assured states of compensation for any revenue losses incurred by them from the date of introduction of GST for a period of three years.

So far, GST rollout has missed several deadlines because of lack of consensus among states over certain crucial issues on the proposed new tax regime, which  will subsume indirect taxes like excise duty and service tax at the central level and VAT and local levies on the states front.

The GST Constitutional Amendment Bill, which was introduced in the Lok Sabha in 2011, had lapsed and the NDA government will be required to come up with a fresh bill.
