side the state, having value of more than ₹ 50,000 to be registered with the GST-Network (GSTN) website. As per the draft, GSTN would generate e-way bills that will be valid for 1-15 days, depending on distance to be travelled – one day for 100 km and 15 days for more than 1,000 km transit. The tax officials can inspect the 'e-way bill' anytime during the transit to check tax evasion. Industry however has expressed concerns over this saying that the ₹ 50,000 limit was too low and that the timeline for completion of transport operation was impractical and removed from reality . They also felt that the e-way bill would be applicable to movement of all kinds of goods without making any distinction between goods that were ev

Reduced Liability of Tax on complex, building, flat etc. under GST

Goods and Services Tax – GST – Dated:- 15-6-2017 – The CBEC and States have received several complaints that in view of the works contract service tax rate under GST at 12% in respect of under construction flats, complex etc, the people who have booked flats and made part payment are being asked to make entire payment before 1st July 2017 or to face higher tax incidence for payment made after 1st July 2017. This is against the GST law. The issue is clarified as below:- 1. Construction of flats, complex, buildings will have a lower incidence of GST as compared to a plethora of central and state indirect taxes suffered by them under the existing regime. 2. Central Excise duty is payable on most construction material @12.5%. It is higher in c

cost of the flat. 4. The current headline rate of service tax on construction of flats, residences, offices etc. is 4.5%. Over and above this, VAT @1% under composition scheme is also charged. The buyer only looks at the headline rate of 5.5%. In other cities/states, where VAT is levied under the composition scheme @2% or above, the headline rate visible to the customer is above 6.5%. What the customer does not see is the embedded taxes on account of cascading and sticking of input taxes in the cost of the flat, etc. 5. This will change under GST. Under GST, full input credit would be available for offsetting the headline rate of 12%. As a result, the input taxes embedded in the flat will not (& should not) form a part of the cost of t
