Do you know, several countries implemented this tax mechanism followed by France which was the first country introduced GST. To simplify the understanding about the Goods and Service Tax (Papularly known as GST and hereinafter called as &#8220;GST&#8221;) it may be called a new version of VAT which gives a comprehensive setoff for input tax credit and subsuming many indirect taxes from state and national level. The GST Implementation deadline is not yet cleared by government (i.e. 01\/04\/2011) <\/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\/forum\/issue?id=2413\">Visit the Source <\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">=  =  =  =  =  =  =  =<\/p>\n<p>ewise there are many situations in the nature of cascading effect for instance, State VAT on CST, Entry tax on VAT etc. So the Govt must have decided to abolish tax on tax effect by implementing GST.<br \/>\nii. Shortfall of Existing VAT<br \/>\nIndirect taxes like luxury tax, entertainment tax, (which are charged as extras to VAT) are yet to be included in the VAT. These taxes are still existing and payable.<br \/>\niii. Shortfall of Existing CENVAT<br \/>\nSeveral taxes like additional customs duty, surcharges not included under CENVAT. Input tax and service tax set off (to a certain extent) is out of reach to the manufacturer and dealers.<br \/>\nBenefits of GST<br \/>\n<![if !supportLists]>1. <![endif]>GST provide comprehensive and wider coverage of input credit setoff, you will be able to use service tax credit for the payment of tax on sale of goods etc.<br \/>\n<![if !supportLists]>2. <![endif]>CST will be removed and need not to collect and pay.
