Committee on CST suggests clearing previous claims for smooth roll-out of GST

27 Feb 2013 Evaluate

To pave way for smooth roll-out of Goods and Service tax (GST), the committee on CST has recommended that all unsettled CST compensation cases of individual states of earlier years to be decided on case to case basis at the earliest. GST is a new indirect tax regime under which various levies would be subsumed into a single tax. The states want the central government to resolve the CST compensation issue before moving ahead with GST.

Earlier, Finance Minister P Chidambaram had constituted two committees to sort out contentious issues that hamper implementation of the GST. Similarly, earlier this month, state finance ministers had decided to prepare model legislation and set up three committees to sort out various issues for smooth roll-out of the GST. The states had agreed to a lower payment of Rs 34,000-crore for phasing out CST, pre-condition for rollout of the GST.

The government would bear 100 percent of the loss accrued to states in 2010-11 fiscal on account of lowering of CST, which includes 100 per cent compensation for 2010-11, 75 per cent for 2011-12 and 50 per cent for 2012-13.

As per Chidambaram, the GST legislation could be brought in by December this year and if the GST implementation takes a longer time then the government will revisit the CST compensation issue again or look at reverting to original CST rate of 4 per cent.
