Snapshot About GST, Registration Snapshot About GST, Registration And Filing Returns And Filing Returns The Goods and Services tax (GST) was introduced by the central government as one nation one tax and it came into effect on 1 July 2017. So you may now ask, does India have only one tax policy? The answer to that is NO. GST is an indirect tax charged on production, sale and utilization of goods and services. No changes have been made into direct taxation of the country. GST is being seen as a major breakthrough over the previously implemented and exercised process of having excise duty at Central level along with sales tax at Sales level. Eligibility Criteria Apply for GST Registration: Turnover Limits In case of Sale of Goods- Any company/entity which has a turnover of 40 Lakhs and above has to register for GST. For Special Category states the limit is 20 lakhs. In case of Sale of Services- Businesses providing services need to register if their aggregate turnover exceeds Rs.20 lakh (for normal category states) and Rs.10 lakh (for special category states). List of Special Category States is 1. Puducherry 2. Meghalaya 3. Mizoram 4. Arunachal Pradesh 5. Tripura 6. Sikkim 7. Nagaland 8. Uttarakhand 9. Manipur
Cross State Supply Organization supplying goods and services from one state to another irrespective of the turnover are required to register for GST. Supply through E-commerce Platforms Groups doing businesses through E-commerce platform such Flipkart, Zomato etc. have to register for GST. Types of GST: CGST: Central Goods and Service Tax SGST: State Goods and Service Tax IGST: Integrated Goods and Service Tax UTGST: Union Territory Goods and Service Tax To explain the type GST let’s take an example: -If your business is located in Uttar Pradesh, the GST applicable would be CGST and SGST. The CGST would go the central government and the SGST would go to the UP government. -If your business is located in Delhi, the GST applicable would be CGST and UTGST. The CGST would go the central government and the UTGST would go directly to Delhi government. -If any enterprise produces tiles in Rajasthan and sells the same in Uttar Pradesh, the GST applicable would be IGST. The IGST would go to the central
government who would take its share and give other part of the share to the state government where the product was sold. That is why it is called as destination GST.
