Center still aims to roll out GST regime from April 1, 2017: Finance Minister

12 Jan 2017 Evaluate

Finance Minister Arun Jaitley has said that the Centre is still aiming to implement the Goods and Services Tax (GST) regime from April 1, 2017. He added that most of the issues have been sorted out. He also hoped that some critical issues of dual control and cross-empowerment in the GST will get resolved in next few weeks. The all-powerful GST Council, which has been deadlocked in the past few meetings, will meet on January 16 to discuss the issue of jurisdiction over assessees as well as taxation of trade in territorial waters.

Jaitley has said that since the constitutional amendment has been passed, it is mandatory to implement the GST, which include most of central and states taxes like excise, service tax and VAT before September 16, because some of the existing levies would expire after the specified date. But the rollout is struck because of differences between the Centre and states over control and administration of the tax as also on how the states that face revenue shortfall because of the GST rollout would need to be compensated.

Minister further said that once implemented, GST combined with more digitised economy resulting from currency demonetisation and a more efficient tax system will make India look much better and make India’s economy look much cleaner, much bigger. GST, or a national sales tax, will replace a jumble of levies to create one of the world's biggest single market. A single tax will make it easier to do business in the world's seventh-largest economy as also help combat evasion, boost revenue for the government.
