With India’s biggest tax reform goods and services tax (GST) set to launch on July 1, the Industry body, Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) has said that the rollout of new tax regime will bring about significant gains to Indian economy and advantages for the stakeholders. FICCI also looks forward to working closely with the government to ensure successful implementation of GST.
The Industry body has clarified that GST will bring down the tax burden of taxpayers in understanding and complying with tax laws and help curb black money generation. Adding further, it also said that GST regime will prevent cascading effect of taxation since input tax credit (ITC) will be available across goods and services at each stage of the supply chain. It also noted that the harmonisation of the laws, procedures and rates of taxes enforced by the Centre and the states will bring transparency/uniformity in tax regime.
Moreover, the chamber has said that the establishment of GST Network automates the processing of tax related filings, enabling automation of processes like registration, returns, refunds, tax payments, etc. which is expected to reduce the interface between the taxpayer and the tax administration and will go a long way to reduce unwarranted litigation on indirect tax matters. Emphasizing that the GST will help curb the spread of the country's parallel economy, FICCI said that the framework of the tax structure, whereby input tax credit is available for the subsequent activity of manufacture or trading, serves as an incentive to be more tax compliant.
