Entertainment, cable, DTH to attract lower taxes under GST

Entertainment, cable, DTH to attract lower taxes under GST
GST
Dated:- 23-5-2017

New Delhi, May 23 (PTI) Taxation on entertainment, cable and DTH services shall come down under the Goods and Services Tax regime as the 'entertainment tax' levied by states has been subsumed in the GST, the government said today.
The Finance Ministry in a statement said services by way of admission to entertainment events or cinematography films in cinema theatres will attract 28 per cent GST with effect from July 1.
Currently, states impose entertainment tax of up to 100 per cent in respect of exhibition of cinematography films in theatres/cinema halls.
Under GST, the entertainment tax has been subsumed, and hence only the taxes levie

Further, the GST Council has approved an exemption up to a consideration for admission of ₹ 250 per person.
These services currently attract entertainment tax levied by the states, the statement said.
"Presently, such service providers are not eligible to avail of input credits in respect of VAT paid on domestically procured capital goods and inputs or of Special Additional Duty (SAD) paid on imported capital goods and inputs," the statement added.
Thus, while GST is a value added tax, entertainment tax, presently levied by the states is like a turnover tax, it added.
The government has estimated that the incidence of taxes on smartphones, medical devices and cement will come down post GST rollout from July 1.

Goods and Services Tax (GST) will lead to lower tax burden in several commodities including packaged cement, Medicaments, Smart phones, and medical devices, including surgical instruments
GST
Dated:- 23-5-2017

The roll out of Goods and Services (GST) Tax will bring benefits to the consumers due to reduced tax rates on various commodities such as packaged cement, medicaments, smart phones, and medical devices, etc.
Packaged cement attracts central excise duty of 12.5% + ₹ 125 PMT and standard VAT rate of 14.5%. At these rates, the present total tax incidence works out to more than 29%. If we include tax incidence on account of CST, octroi, entry tax, etc., the present total tax incidence would work out to more than 31%.

Every registered person who causes “movement of goods” of consignment value exceeding fifty thousand rupees – (i) in relation to a supply; or (ii) for reasons other than supply; or (iii) due to inward supply from an unregistered person, shall, before commencement of movement, furnish information relating to the said goods in Part A of FORM GST INS-01, electronically, on the common portal.

y the supplier, the transporter and even the recipient, who have to communicate its acceptance or rejection of the consignment covered by the e-way bill within a very short period. This will cause myriad of inconveniences and cumbersome digital work for small time businessmen.
Further transporters generally belong to a class that is unorganized and is not well versed with digital equipments, thus it will be a challenge to implement this system smoothly.
Also the assessee will be left burdened with generating the E Bills for every single movement of goods. The proposed E-way bills, which will be required for movement of goods will make transport of goods a cumbersome, delayed and pricey affair under the GST regime.

All these things are ok only under super connectivity roadways. In our country major problems are of inefficient infrastructure, such as, no or slow internet connectivity, lack of educative class of people handling materials etc. How such e-way bill would be implemented is the 100m$ question. Instead Govt. may think of certain devise which can be used without internet connection to collect the information from all movements of materials on all check posts and reconcile such data subsequently with returns submitted on GSTN by the suppliers/recipients.

According to me you are entitled to transfer the closing balance of credit declared in your June 2017 ER-1 return or ST-3 service tax return for the quarter ending June 2017 to the GST credit account on the following grounds:-
a) In 2015 Budget, the Finance Minister has stated in his Budget Speech that "the rate of duty for excise is fixed as 12.5% from 12.36% (12% basic + 2% Edu cess on Basic duty + 1% She Cess on Basic duty) since Education and SHE Cess have been subsumed in the basic rate of duty. Similarly for service tax from 12.36% to 14% .
b) Fur

earned by the manufacturer during the period such credit was allowed. The Hon'ble Supreme Court has already held that "once the credit is taken during the period when the same is allowed to be taken, the Department cannot deny such credit subsequently when exemption is given.
e) Because of the Policy of Government that both Cesses have been subsumed with Basic Rate, one could not utilise the same . As such, the credit can be eligible for utilisation against basic duty.
f) Further, Government allows the credit of Edu cess / SHE Cess on goods received on or after 1.3.2015 and also allow the same to utilise against basic duty. This clearly proves the intention of Government that since both Cessess have been subsumed with Basic rate, the said credit of cessess have been allowed to be utilised for payment of basic duty. The same analogy is applicable to closing balance lying in ER-1 as on 1.3.2015.
g) Further, the Department has never insisted the manufacturers to reverse the cr

ot; …the registered person shall not be allowed to take credit unless the said credit was admissible as Cenvat credit under the existing Law and is also admissible as input tax credit under this Act.
Further the Explanation says that "…..unavailed credit means the amount that remains after substracting the amount of credit already availed in respect of capital goods by the taxable person under the existing law from the aggregate amount of cenvat credit to which the said person was entitled in respect of the said capital goods under the existing law.
There is no doubt that "the Education Cess / SHE cess were allowed as eligible credit in terms of the provisions of Rule 3 of Cenvat Credit Rules, 2004 till June 2017. Since the Transitional Provision clearly says that "the credit was allowed under the existing Law", there is no problem in transferring such unavailed credit of Edu Cess and SHE cess along with basic credit.

GST to have minimal impact on CPI Index

GST to have minimal impact on CPI Index
GST
Dated:- 22-5-2017

Mumbai, May 22 (PTI) The Goods and Services Tax (GST) is likely to have minimal direct impact on the consumer price index (CPI) basket, a report said.
This is because most of the tax rates for the items in the CPI basket are likely to be taxed at a lower rate under the GST as compared to the existing levy, it said.
However, assuming that GST does have the intended effect of increasing tax compliance, the tax burden would increase. This could lead companies to pass the costs of higher tax compliance on to the consumer at a later stage, said the report by Morgan Stanley.

"But, if there are extreme fluctuations, it is for the RBI to look at intervening just that much, so that, any extreme fluctuations are taken care of," she added.

The tax department may invoke the anti-profiteering clause after the mechanism is put in place and may look into balance sheet of companies if they have gained from the GST and whether the benefits have been passed on to consumers.
