Panel of State FMs likely to discuss GST on March 3

03 Mar 2012 Evaluate

The Empowered Committee of State Finance Ministers on Goods and Services Tax (GST) will meet on March 03, to discuss various issues related with the implementation of the ambitious indirect tax regime. The key objective of the meeting is to deliberate on measures to increase the reach of the tax and sought out issues regarding the definition of ‘services’ so that more economic activities can be brought under the tax net and any tax-related disputes can be avoided.

The Committee is also likely to discuss development of Information Technology network for GST and the issue of Central Sales Tax (CST) compensation.

The government is trying to introduce the new GST regime, which will include various levies like excise, service tax and states tax, like value-added tax, entry tax and purchase tax. It is expected that in the Union Budget on March 16, the government will keep 22 services in the negative list and impose 10% tax on all other services.

Also compensation to be provided by the center to the states for phasing out the CST will come up for discussion. At present, CST is payable on inter-state sales at 2%. Although CST is levied by the Centre, the revenue goes to the state government. State from which movement of goods commences gets revenue. The Centre has agreed to release around Rs 6,394 crore for 2010-11 as compensation to states for the gradual lowering of CST to 2% from 4%. However, the Centre has refused compensation to the states in the current fiscal.
