The Economic Survey 2017-18 presented today in Parliament by the Union Minister of Finance and Corporate Affairs, Shri&nbsp;Arun&nbsp;Jaitley&nbsp;informs that as on December 2017, there were 9.8 million unique GST registrants slightly more than the total Indirect Tax registrants under the old system (where many taxpayers were registered <\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">=  =  =  =  =  =  =  =<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Plain text (Extract) only<\/strong><BR>For full text:-<a href=\"https:\/\/www.taxtmi.com\/news?id=19464\">Visit the Source <\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">=  =  =  =  =  =  =  =<\/p>\n<p>ion of the GST base among the States is closely linked to the size of their economies, allaying fears of major producing States that the shift to the new system would undermine their tax collections.<br \/>\nDwelling on the subject of International Trade, Inter-State Trade and Economic Prosperity, the Survey points-out for the first time in India&#39;s history&nbsp; that&nbsp;five States-Maharashtra, Gujarat, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and&nbsp;Telangana&nbsp;account for 70% of India&#39;s exports. New data on the international exports of States suggests a strong correlation between export performance and States&#39; standard of living. Last year Survey had estimated that India&#39;s Inter-State trade in goods was between 30 and 50 percent of GDP. But the GST data suggests that India&#39;s internal trade in goods and services (excludes non-GST goods and services) is actually even higher and is about 60 percent of GDP.<br \/>\nThe survey based on new GST data also provides a close look at the firm-level exports and states th<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">=  =  =  =  =  =  =  =<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Plain text (Extract) only<\/strong><BR>For full text:-<a href=\"https:\/\/www.taxtmi.com\/news?id=19464\">Visit the Source <\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">=  =  =  =  =  =  =  =<\/p>\n<p> GST net suggests a formal sector payroll share of 53 percent.<br \/>\nThe Chapter titled &#8221; A New, Exciting Bird&#39;s-Eye View of the Indian Economy Through the GST&#8221; sums up that most of the discussions in the run-up to the GST centered on the size of the tax base, and its implications for the Revenue Neutral Rate (RNR). The RNR Committee had estimated a base of Rs. 68.8&nbsp;lakhcrore&nbsp;and the GST Council had estimated a base of Rs. 65.8&nbsp;lakh&nbsp;crore. Current data suggest that the GST tax base (excluding exports) is Rs. 65-70&nbsp;lakh&nbsp;crore, broadly similar to these two previous estimates. Based on the average collections in the first few months, the implied weighted average collection rate (incidence) is about 15.6 percent. So, as estimated by the RNR committee, the single tax rate that would preserve revenue neutrality is between 15 to 16 percent.<br \/>\n=============<br \/>\nDocument 1<br \/>\npilo<br \/>\nECONOMIC SURVEY<br \/>\n2017-18<br \/>\nInformation on GST yields Exciting Findings<br \/>\n\u2022 50% increase in nu<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">=  =  =  =  =  =  =  =<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Plain text (Extract) only<\/strong><BR>For full text:-<a href=\"https:\/\/www.taxtmi.com\/news?id=19464\">Visit the Source <\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">=  =  =  =  =  =  =  =<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GST data reveals 50% increase in number of Indirect Taxpayers GSTDated:- 29-1-2018GST data reveals 50% increase in number of Indirect Taxpayers Economic Survey says-Maharashtra, Gujarat, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu &#038; Telangana account for 70% of India&#39;s exports India&#39;s internal trade in goods and services is 60 percent of GDP.
