In a nutshell, only value addition will be taxed and burden of tax is to be borne by the final consumer.

The tax came into effect from July 1, 2017 through the implementation of One Hundred and First Amendment of the Constitution of India by the Indian Government. The tax replaced existing multiple Central and State Government taxes.

The tax rates, rules and regulations are governed by the GST Council which consists of the finance minister of central and all the states. GST is meant to replace a slew of indirect taxes with a unified tax and is therefore expected to reshape the country's 2.4 trillion-dollar economy. GST tax rates vary from 0% - 28% depending on the type of service or Nature of Goods Your business is selling.

ELIGIBILITY FOR GST RETURN FILING

• In the GST norms, any regular business has to file three monthly returns and one annual return.

• GST should also be filed by entities that make no sales or purchases during a given period (year) in the form of nil-returns (meaning no returns).

The best part in this system one has to manually enter details of one monthly return – GSTR-1. The other two returns – GSTR 2 & 3 will get auto-populated by deriving information from GSTR-1 filed by you and your vendors. Compounding taxpayers have to file returns quarterly which is for every three months and regular taxpayers such as, foreign non-residents, casual taxpayers and Input Service Providers (ISD) have to file returns monthly.
