7. CONTRIBUTION TO THE HOST ORGANIZATION
GST is a single tax on manufacture, sale, and consumption of goods and services
throughout India. The purpose behind this move is to have one indirect tax for India
which will make the country unified common market. GST is collected at every stage of
sale or purchase of goods or services, based on input tax credit method. This
simplification of the taxation system would make the inter-state transportation of goods
more efficient. As higher than optimal time is consumed per transportation, logistics costs
incurred in India 2 to3 times compared to the global benchmarks, according to the World
Bank. In simple terms, the logistics cost in India is about 13 per cent of GDP as
compared to about eight per cent in western countries and about 18 per cent in China. But
with the introduction of GST, India will become a seamless market without any
difference between inter-state or intra-state sales. Warehouses are scientific storage
structures especially constructed for the protection of the quantity and quality of stored
products. Warehousing may be defined as the assumption of responsibility for the storage
of goods. The Goods and Service Tax (GST) is boost to the growth of the warehousing
industry. The 1.2 billion sq. ft. domestic warehousing industry now consolidates with the
roll-out of the goods and service tax. Implantation of GST is presenting companies the
life time opportunity to restructure their logistics and warehousing in terms of locations,
size, operations and services. The old structure gave rise to the practice of companies
manufacturing warehouse in each state in order to avoid central taxes. GST will facilitate
centralization and consolidation without adding rather reducing the cost. One of the
World Bank report “India Development Update” has estimated that GST will help in
taking decisions on warehousing and distribution without making any tax considerations.
This would ultimately result in consolidation of warehouses and further closure of
smaller warehouses.
1.1 Impact of GST on Warehousing In India
In India, there has been no uniform and easy to implement taxation policy in place across
various supply chains. Consequently, the distribution as well as warehousing strategies is
tax oriented which restricts effective utilization of available resources. As we have seen,
companies build warehouses in each state to evade taxes which actually is not a good
practice as far as logistics efficiency is concerned. And even the existing warehousing
infrastructure is still unorganized. But with GST coming to the fore and because of its
simplified and uniform approach, there is surely going to be a more positive impact of
GST on warehousing in India. As warehouses are an integral part of each supply chain,
read on how GST will impact warehousing in India –
Presently, companies feel the need to build at least one big warehouse in different states
because of different taxes being imposed in the states. This increases the storage cost and
affects the warehousing structure in India. With GST in place, there would be uniformity
in imposed taxes and companies would not require paying for taxes in different regions.
Companies would have one big warehouse at a central location which might serve
multiple states leading to decrease in the no. of warehouses. Alternatively, companies
may opt for warehouses at specific locations on the basis of hub and spoke model. We
can safely assume GST will have a direct impact on the total count of warehouses in a
supply chain.
Current tax structure in India leads to complicated warehousing decisions like setting up
of huge inventory and at times, running out of inventory when demand rises suddenly.
GST would have a huge impact on inventory efficiency as there would be lesser stocking
points and case of stock outs would also be fewer. This will all be due to companies
taking advantage of economies of scale and making better forecast for the upcoming
demand, thereby ensuring that supply chain process is up and running. Surely, this will
lead to a positive impact of GST on warehousing in India.
We see there is so much scope for organizing the current unorganized setup of
warehouses in India. In the present scenario, research says that there are around 20-30
warehouses for each company, almost 1 in every state. This gets further complicated
when those warehouses are sustained by 20-30 C&F agents leading to complexity in
supply chain and causing inefficiency. Warehousing industry will feel the impact of GST
as the need to build warehouse in each state would be almost over and this will lead to
better organized warehouses and ultimately, enhancing the overall efficiency.
5. Cost Benefits
GST will diverge the attention of conscious tax savings on supply chains to efficiency
oriented approach as warehousing sector will be optimized to a greater deal. This will not
only save logistics costs for LSPs but these benefits would be passed on to the customers
too.
There is no running away from the fact that GST is going to be implemented pretty soon.
But we can assume very safely that impact of GST on warehousing in India is going to
lead us in the positive direction. Warehousing sector is bound to get more organized and
overall profits are there to be reaped. There is an estimated growth of around 18 % in
warehousing until 2017, which will be above 20% in the coming years with GST’s
implementation. Are you ready for this leap and in case you want to make sure that you
change with the flow? At Holisol, we have the expertise in warehouse designing for
supply chains of different industries for the past 7 years. Just get in touch to make your
infrastructure compliant and ready for GST’s impact on warehousing in India
The present study is mainly based on secondary data. Secondary data is collected through
journal, research paper and website the whole study is based on experts analysis and data
presented by government and institutions for analyzing impact on warehousing industry
after implementation of GST.
People have taken note of the GST or the Goods Services Tax law. A new law has been
proposed which is set to reform how people do business and the way goods and services
are taxed in India. Whether it makes goods cheaper for the common man like you and
me, nobody can tell. But this is going to impact our lives in our jobs, our businesses and
the overall economic environment. Reason enough for us to learn something about it!
GST is expected to replace a myriad of indirect taxes such as VAT, customs duty, Excise,
CST, Service Tax, Entertainment Tax with a single tax called the Goods and Services
Tax.
Many of us are aware that service tax and VAT have cascading benefits, which means
you can avail credit of tax paid by you on inputs. For example in case of service tax – you
levy service tax on services you sell and while depositing this tax you can take credit of
service tax paid by you on services used as inputs.
IGST payments can be set off against – IGST, CGST, SGST on inputs
CGST payments can be set off against – IGST and CGST on inputs
SGST payments can be set off against – IGST and SGST on inputs
Hope our readers will find this information about GST useful. We will bring more details
on the draft law which is under discussion and has not been approved yet, so you can
better understand its impact on your business.
GST belongs to the VAT family as tax revenues are collected on the basis of value added.
Unlike in the case of a pure commodity based VAT system, GST includes services tax
also. Similarly, input credit is given while calculating the tax burden. Following are the
main features of the GST as per the final agreement.
1. Taxes covered: Most of the important indirect taxes of the center and states are
integrated under the GST. The most important tax of the central government (in
terms of tax revenue collection) -the Central Value Added Tax (or Union Excise
Duty), Additional Customs Duty (CVD), Special Additional Duty of Customs
(SAD), Central Sales Tax (levied by the Centre and collected by the States, the
fastest growing tax revenue of the center – Service Tax, the most important tax
revenue of the states – the state VAT (Sales tax) are now merged into a single tax
under the Goods and Service Tax.
2. The four-tier rate structure: the GST proposes a four-tier rate structure. The tax
slabs are fixed at 5%, 12%, 18% and 28% besides the 0% tax on essentials. Gold
is taxed at 3%. The center has strictly demanded and got an additional chess on
demerit luxury goods that comes under the high 28% tax. Essential commodities
like food items are exempted from taxes under GST. Other consumer goods
which are common items will be taxed at 5%.4. The new GST seems to have two
standard rates – 12% and 18%. GST rate structure for the goods and services are
fixed by considering different factors including luxury/necessity nature.
3. Service tax rate under GST: Under the GST, there is a differential tax structure.
A low tax rate of 5% is imposed on essential services. Common services are
charged at 12% and some commercial services at 18%. A tax rate of 28% on
luxury services is also made. Several services like education provided by an
educational institution, Post Offices, RBI etc. are exempted from service taxation.
The standard GST rate on services seems to be 18%. Services are taxed at a
common rate of 15% previously.
4. Turnover limit under GST and tax right over low turnover entities: GST is
applied when turnover of the business exceeds Rs 20lakhs per year (Limit is Rs
10lakhs for the North-Eastern States). Traders who would like to get input tax
credit should make a voluntary registration even if their sales are below Rs 20
lakh per year. Traders supplying goods to other states have to register under GST,
even if their sales are less than Rs 20 lakh. There is a composition scheme for
selected group of tax payers whose turnover is up to Rs 75 lakhs a year.
5. Tax revenue appropriation between the center and states: The center and
states will share GST tax revenues at 50:50 ratios (except the IGST). This means
that if a service is taxed at 18%, 9% will go to the center and 9% will go to the
concerned state.
6. Components of GST: CGST, SGST and IGST: When the center and states are
merging their prominent indirect taxes under GST, both should get their own
share in the GST. For this, the GST Council has adopted a dual GST with two
components – the Central GST (CGST) and the State GST (SGST).

Although the movement of goods across countries has become more efficient, the end-
user of the product or service is obliged to pay tax due to the application of GST in India.
The current system without GST means that “tax is paid on the value of goods and
margin at each stage of the production process” and this would translate into an amount
higher than the total tax paid. Thus the final consumer is obliged to pay more to purchase
goods or avail services.
However, these are not the only challenges experienced by the Indian logistics industry.
Some other obstacles in this regard are:
Uncertain, unorganized pricing policies and unrestricted costs.
Differential regulations with the intervention of local, regional and national tax
authorities.
Lack of trained staff and inadequate tax management programs.
An unstable assessment of transport costs leading to corruption
Damage to inventory and bad debts resulting from delayed delivery or improper
delivery of goods
This study is an attempt to suggest therapeutic guidelines to overcome the above issues in
the field of logistics.
CHAPTER 2
LITERATURE REVIEW
Nandgopal P et al. logistics is the management of the flow of objects between the
starting point and the point of usage to fulfill the needs of companies or customers.
Resources managed in logistics can include material items such as food, materials,
animals, tools and fluids. As well as abstract elements, such as time and information.
Logistics usually includes physical material, information flow integration, material
handling, production, packaging, inventory, transport, storage, and safety. As a sector that
collects countless industrial and commercial activities in the country on a daily basis, it
tries forever to bridge the fragile gap between increasing consumption and timely supply;
it is hardly self-evident to consider logistics as the backbone of the Indian economy is
rapidly changing shape. GST is an indirect federal sales tax applied to the cost of most
goods and services except petroleum products and alcohol. The business adds GST to the
price of the product; the customer who buys the product pays the sale price plus GST
Sivashankari K et al. this paper is an examination of what the effect of Goods and
Service Tax (GST) will be on Logistics Sector in India principally in Transportation,
Warehousing and Logistics Service Providers. Catchphrases: GST, Freight Forwarding,
Logistics Service Providers. The essential bottleneck in driving monetary development of
this area is because of various duties charged by experts at interstate check posts. These
outcomes in high logistics costs putting additional cost load on the clients. The logistics
costs in India is high (13 for each penny of GDP) when contrasted with created nations
V.Jothi Francina et al. This paper is an analysis of what the impact of Goods and
Service Tax (GST) is on Logistics Sector in India primarily in Transportation,
Warehousing and Logistics Service Providers. Goods and service tax is a colligation of
multiple taxes levied by both Central (i.e., excise duty, countervailing duty and service
tax) and state (Value-added tax, Octopi and entry tax, luxury tax, etc.) governments when
an end-user purchases goods or services. It means same level of taxation would be
charged on a specific product or service across the entire country irrespective of being
manufactured and sold in different states. Logistics is generally the detailed organization
and implementation of a complex operation. The India logistics sector is primarily
categorized into four segments comprising transportation, warehousing, freight
forwarding and value-added logistics.
Dr.Anitha.M.N et al. This paper is an analysis of what the impact of Goods and Service
Tax (GST) will be on Logistics Sector in India primarily in Transportation, Warehousing
and Logistics Service Providers. The Indian logistics industry is expected to grow
steadily. But the logistics costs in India are high when compared to developed countries.
Logistics Sector in India is highly fragmented. Due to increased industrial activities, the
India logistics industry has gained immense significance over the years and a major
contributor of Indian GDP. Logistics is the management of the flow of things between the
point of origin and the point of consumption in order to meet requirements of customers
or corporations.
R. Swathi et al. Logistics sector plays a vital role in the development of our country.
Indian logistics industry has been showing a steady growth. Goods and Service Tax
(GST) is India’s greatest tax reform. The logistics of physical items usually involves the
combination of information flow, material handling, production, packaging, inventory,
transportation, warehousing and often security. In India, GST is implemented to unify the
entire country into a single market with only one value- added tax levy on all the goods
and services across states at the point of consumption, comprising up to 16 different
taxes. The specific objective of this article is to analyse the impact of Goods and Service
Tax (GST) on logistics and specifically on warehouses situated in India. Operations such
as order consolidation, order assembly, product mixing and cross-docking that take place
within the warehouse structure adds value to the overall logistics system.
Ranjana Upashi et al. This paper concentrates on benefits of GST and its effects on
different sectors like automobile, FMCG, banking, insurance, financial services,
Pharmaceutical sector, agriculture, real estate, Consumer durables, oil and gas, cement,
telecom, real estate, airlines and gold. The findings of the paper revealed mixed effect on
different sectors of the Indian economy. Companies and business organizations used to
pay number of indirect taxes like excise duty, customs duty, central sales tax, service tax
levied by central government and VAT, entry tax and octopi etc. levied by state
government. The implementation of GST single tax system is going to benefit the
consumer, business and finally boost the growth of the economy. Possible challenges and
threats and then, opportunities GST brings in strengthening the economy.

because of its simplified and uniform approach, there is surely going to be a more
positive impact of GST on warehousing in India. As warehouses are an integral part of
each supply chain, read on how GST will impact warehousing in India Author also focus
on to understand the concept of goods and service tax, to examine the features of goods
and service tax, to study the impact of GST on ILMS warehouse PVT LTD.

Works Contract is
A composite contract
Where there is transfer of property in goods along with supply of services
Which are interrelated with each other?
An agreement of building, construction, manufacture, processing, fabrication,
erection, installation, repair or commissioning of any movable or immovable
property may be called a works contract.
1. Schedule II of the CGST Act, 2017, deals with the classification of Activities into
Supply of Goods and Services.
2. Entry number 5(b) of Schedule II mentions clearly that the “construction of a
complex, building, civil structure or a part thereof, including a complex or
building intended for sale to a buyer, wholly or partly…” will be treated as a
Supply of Service.
Where the due date of payment is Time of supply shall be the due
ascertainable from the contract date of payment..
Where the due date of payment is Time of supply it will be earliest
not ascertainable from the of

1)date of receipt of payment or
2)the date of issue of invoice
Where payment is linked to the Time of supply it will be earliest

The place of supply of the service is the location of the immovable property.
E.g. If site is at New Delhi and office is at Gujarat. Immovable property is build up in
New Delhi; hence it will be the place of supply of services.
Apart from the above two, no Input Tax Credit will be available for works contracts for
construction of immovable property. For Eg- Hotel.

Pre and Post GST calculation of ILMS warehouse PVT LTD is for
1. Sale of Flats and Units- under Construction Service Tax is 4.50%, VAT is 1%,
Total is 5.50% and After GST is 18% (1/3 Reduction of Land).
2. Joints Development- Owner Area Service Tax is 4.50% to 6%, VAT is NIL, Total
is 4.50% to 6% and After GST is 18%.
3. Rehabilitation of Flats Service Tax is 6%, VAT is NIL, Total is 6% and After
GST is 18% (1/3 Reduction of Land).
5.6.2 Issues
In return Developer gives owners flat to Land Owner, also developer sales his developed
flats to customers.
Present regime:
1. Service tax:
* Flats allotted to Land owner – service tax payable under works contract category or
construction service on the value of development potentials received
2. VAT:
* Hence, date when irrevocable rights are received will be time of supply
Rule 6(3) of Service tax Rules, 1994 permits Builder to adjust service tax
refunded to customer on cancellation of flats/ units against his tax liability of the
month in which refund is made
No time limit for such adjustment
GST regime:
Whether builder is entitled to issue credit note u/s 34 and claim the tax
adjustment? Provision speaks of deficiency of service and not “non-provision of
service”
Does this mean that adjustment of GST refunded on advance against GST liability
is not permissible?
Section 54(8)(c) permits refund of tax paid on supply which is not provided either
wholly or partially
Debit note and Credit note in Works Contract- DN and CN should be issued by supplier
only U/s 34 of GST Act
Section 17(2) provides that where goods or services are used partly for effecting
taxable supplies and partly for exempt supplies, ITC credit attributable to taxable
supplies can only be taken
Exempt Supply is defined u/s 2(47)] to include non-taxable supply
Non-taxable supply is defined u/s 2(78) of the Act to mean:
o Supply of goods or services or both
o Which is not liable to tax under CGST or IGST Act
Section 17(3) specifically includes sale of building and sale of land as exempt
supply
Sale of completed flat will be exempt supply for the purpose of reversal of ITC
u/s 17(2) of the Act from start of the project.
Also builder may liable to pay interest on such reversal of credit for the period
starting from the date of completion certificate till date of actual reversal.
Subcontract of construction
Subcontractor is not works contractor but composite supplier. Hence ITC overflow is not
applicable to subcontractor he will get refund.
The provisions relating to treatment of ongoing contracts on appointed day are contained
in Section 142 (10) and 142 (11) of the CGST Act 2017
1. If the goods or services are being supplied on or after the appointed date in
pursuance of the contract entered prior to the appointed date, then tax would be
levied under GST.
2. If the goods or services are supplied before the appointed date and VAT was
livable on such transaction on account of Sale of goods or Service Tax was livable
on account of provision of services, no tax will be required to be paid under GST.
3. If the consideration has been received prior to appointed date in respect of such
supply and tax has already been paid under current regime, no tax would be
required to discharged /paid under GST.
4. If any VAT and Service Tax has been paid on any supply under the existing laws,
but the supply of goods and/or services is to be received under GST scheme, then
the tax already paid shall be allowed as credit under GST and the supplies when
made shall be taxed under GST as well. This clause covers specifically works
contract transactions. For example: If an invoice is raised on 30th June 2017 and
the supply is for the month of June 2017 and July 2017 and VAT and Service Tax
have been paid, then such VAT and Service Tax paid shall be allowed as credit in
GST proportionate to the month of July 2017; and when supplies are made in July
2017, they shall be put to tax under GST.
Positive Impact
Easy Compliance
Availability of Input Tax Credit
Possible reduction in prices
Excise Duty, VAT, Service tax get replaced by GST
Finally, the Goods and Service Tax, commonly known as GST is a reality now and it has
brought the Indian taxation system under its unique ideology ‘one nation, one tax’. The
advent of GST has subsumed all the indirect taxes in India, including Value Added Tax
(VAT), Service tax, Excise duty, and Octroi. These indirect taxes or VAT were levied on
each step of value addition of the product, thus creating a cascading effect. Therefore,
GST was introduced to bring down unwanted inflation in the economy. Both VAT and
GST are levied on the value of sale or supply of goods. But still, there are lots of
differences between VAT and GST. Read on to know how GST is different from VAT.
VAT- the Value Added Tax was applicable for goods sold, and not services. Service tax
took care of the services rendered. The previous taxation system included several indirect
taxes along the supply chain, resulting into high tax rates paid from the pocket of the
ultimate consumer.
However, GST is applicable for both goods and services, together with uniform pricing.
GST is one tax that is levied on manufacturing, selling, and consumption of goods and
services. It is a destination-based tax, distributed among the Central Government and the
State Governments under the components Central GST (CGST) and State GST (SGST).
In the words of many eminent economists, VAT and GST are just two names for one tax,
but on evaluating minutely, you observe the contrast. First and foremost, it’s important to
understand how valuation of goods is considered under their respective perspective.
VAT is calculated on the market price of the goods. Further, excise duty and VAT add up
to it.
For Example: Suppose a manufacturer sells construction material worth Rs. 3000 to a
distributor. The invoice would reflect:
Subtotal = 3375/-
VAT @ 14.5% on subtotal= 490/-
Whereas, GST will be only charged on the selling price and the subsequent parts of
SGST and CGST would add to the value of goods as per their percentage. The invoice
under GST scenario would reflect:
CGST @ 9% = 270/-
SGST @ 9% = 270/-
Thus, GST has eliminated the additional, indirect and redundant taxes and has reduced
the burden on the common taxpayer. However, there is more in terms to draw comparison
between VAT and GST. Let’s have a look at major points of difference amongst the two.
1. Taxable event
VAT- Only State govt. gets the whole share for welfare of state's public.
GST- GST is collected under SGST and CGST for every sale from same state. The
corresponding center and state amount then gets bifurcated.
3. Input Credit
VAT- Dealer has right to deposit his net VAT liability by deducting input VAT on goods
purchased and from output VAT on goods sold.
GST- As GST is applicable on goods as well as services provided, the GST portal system
calculates the Input credit which is used for payment during the next GST liability.
GST- The paid GST on services adds up to total input GST comparable to total output
GST, which may be on goods sold. Finally the tax payer gets the input credit on tax for
the services availed by the products you purchased.
5. Taxation on services
VAT- VAT is not applicable on provided or sold services. Service tax is charged
additionally @ 14.5%.
GST- GST rates for services depend on nature of service. It may be 12% and 18% and
28% depending on the sector. Most services come under 15% GST.
6. Return Filing
GST- Must file return for sales by 10th, purchase by 15th and payment by 20th of
succeeding month.
1. Increase in Foreign Investment- With GST, India is now a unified market and
the foreign investment has increased in India. The goods that are manufactured
within India because of their reduced costs have become more competitive in
international market leading to growth in export. The implementation of Goods &
Services tax puts India in the line of international tax standards, making it easier
for Indian businesses to sell in the global market.
2. Fewer Tax- GST has two constituents: The central GST and the State GST. The
Central GST will replace - Service Tax, Central Excise Duty, and Custom Duty
etc. The State GST will replace - State VAT, Central Sales Tax, Tax on
Advertisements, Luxury Tax, Purchase Tax, Entertainment Tax etc. Before GST,
there were so many taxes and now they have replaced all these taxes and duties
with Central GST and State GST.
3. Reduce the cost of doing business- GST has changed VAT all over India. Now
we do not need to pay different amounts of taxes in different states. It is one tax
system for all states of India and so we have already got rid of various taxes and
duties on our businesses.
4. Transparency- The tax administration has started working corruption free. Also
enabling sales invoices to show the tax applied has resulted in transparency.
1. Dual Control - GST is being referred to as a single taxation system but in reality
it is a dual tax because both the state and center both will collect separate tax on a
single transaction of sale and service.
2. Incumbent increase of the cost of some commodities - The tax rate has been
increased for many products, thus increasing their costs.
3. Some sector are at a loss- Sectors like Textile, Media, Pharma, Dairy Products,
IT and Telecom are bearing the brunt of a higher tax. Also the price of
commodities has increased like jewellery, mobile phones and credit cards.
4. Real Estate Market affected - Economists are of the opinion that GST in India
has already had a negative impact on the real estate market. It has added up to 8
percent to the cost of new homes and reduced demand by about 12 percent.
There are approximately 140 countries where GST has already been implemented by
Australia, Germany, Japan, and Pakistan. India is one of the most stable economies of the
world and we have proved to be quite adept at adjusting to major economic renovations.
CHAPTER7
CONTRIBUTION TO THE HOST
ORGANIZATION
Under the Pre – GST scenario, state and local self-governments practiced notable
sovereignty in taxation. With individual states having strong taxation rights, each used to
levy indirect taxes such as VAT, Central Sales Tax, Service Tax, Excise etc. in many
different forms. Not only have that, to attract investment in their respective states, stated
governments depended on incentives. This leads to different prices of the same goods and
services in different states. While states benefited from such a tax structure, the economy
as a whole suffered.
But with the coming of GST, the registered tax assesses now pay a single, uniform tax on
goods and services across the country. In addition to this, GST is led by a Central Tax
Authority – the GST Council. This council is chaired by the Union Finance Minister and
has various states as its members. Each state member thus participates in the formulation
of the indirect tax policy of the country.
Cascading tax effect, also known as tax on tax, occurs when a good is taxed on every
stage of its production, until it is sold to the final consumer. In such a situation, each
succeeding transfer of good is taxed inclusive of the taxes charged on the preceding
transfer. Consequently, the final consumer bears the burden of multiple taxes imposed on
every stage of production, leading to inflationary prices. To better understand the tax on
tax effect, let’s reconsider the above example.
First Stage – When Abeer, the Manufacturer in Punjab, Sells to a Dealer in Maharashtra
Abeer collects Excise Duty (charged on selling price) as well as Central Sales Tax
(charged on cost plus Excise Duty) from the dealer in Maharashtra. Therefore, the final
price paid by the Maharashtra dealer to Abeer is:
Final Price = Cost Price + Excise% on Cost Price + CST% on (Cost Price + Excise% on
Cost Price)
Under the previous indirect tax structure, various indirect taxes had different sales
turnover limits for registrations.
To encourage reduced taxes and tax compliances, the Composition Scheme was
introduced under GST. Small business owners registered under the scheme are required
to pay a fixed percentage of tax on their turnover. In addition to this, unlike the regular
GST tax payers, small businesses registered under Composition Scheme need to file one
quarterly return. Following are the tax rates under Composition Scheme:
Small businesses with a turnover of Rs 1.50 crores would pay a flat GST rate of
1%. They will now file one tax return only.
Small service providers with an annual turnover of Rs 50 Lakhs would now pay a
GST of 6% instead of 18%.
5. Reduced Tax Compliances as Number of Tax Returns to be Filed Under GST Has
Come Down
Since a host of taxes existed under the previous indirect tax structure, the businesses
registered for various indirect taxes had to bear multiple compliances.
6. Registration and Filing Returns Under GST Made Simple as Everything is Done
Online
One of the motivations to implement GST was to get on board the unorganized sector and
eventually increase the tax base. According to Economic Survey 2017 – 2018, post the
implementation of GST, there has been a 50% increase in the number of indirect tax
payers. Furthermore, there has been an increase in the number of voluntary registrations,
especially small enterprises that sell goods to large enterprises. These small enterprises
want to come under the ambit of GST and claim input tax credit benefit.
CHAPTER 8
FINDINGS AND OBSERVATIONS
On the basis of ITR calculation of ILMS warehouse PVT LTD it is Cleary interpret that
positively Reduce the cost of doing business i.e GST has changed VAT all over India.
Now we do not need to pay different amounts of taxes in different states. It is one tax
system for all states of India and so we have already got rid of various taxes and duties on
our businesses. Also in terms of Transparency the tax administration has started working
corruption free. Also enabling sales invoices to show the tax applied has resulted in
transparency.
As we think negative aspect of Dual Control i.e GST is being referred to as a single
taxation system but in reality it is a dual tax because both the state and center both will
collect separate tax on a single transaction of sale and service. Incumbent increase of the
cost of some commodities i.e The tax rate has been increased for many products, thus
increasing their costs.
CHAPTER 9
CONCLUSION, SUGGESTIONS, AND
LIMITATIONS
9.1 Conclusion
The Goods and Service Tax is transforming India into a single integrated market. In the
pre-GST era, the structure and organization of India’s warehousing industry reflected a
preoccupation with the multiplicity of tax laws in our country. In this project author focus
on the impact of GST on ILMS warehouse PVT LTD. Our area of scope is Pune and
Mumbai Location. For data analysis we use secondary data source. In India, there has
been no uniform and easy to implement taxation policy in place across various supply
chains. Consequently, the distribution as well as warehousing strategies is tax oriented
which restricts effective utilization of available resources. As we have seen, companies
build warehouses in each state to evade taxes which actually is not a good practice as far
as logistics efficiency is concerned. And even the existing warehousing infrastructure is
still unorganized. But with GST coming to the fore and because of its simplified and
uniform approach, there is surely going to be a more positive impact of GST on
warehousing in India. As warehouses are an integral part of each supply chain, read on
how GST will impact warehousing in India Author also focus on to understand the
concept of goods and service tax, to examine the features of goods and service tax, to
study the impact of GST on ILMS warehouse PVT LTD. Companies can now make
decisions on warehouse location size technology adoption inventory and operations
management based on logical factors like proximity to consumption centers,
manufacturing locations, optimization of goods movement and inventory control strategy
etc. the cost savings that flow there from will mean lower supply chain costs for
manufactures and reduced products prices for consumers. Market integration in the post-
GST era, will bring in a uniform tax regime cuts across regional boundaries and make
taxation an irrelevant parameter for the warehousing and distribution. The warehousing
sector would be both an enabler and beneficiary of India’s biggest tax reform since
independence. Any positive changes in the warehousing and logistics have boost the
global competitiveness of our manufactures.
9.2 Suggestion
1. Processes must be reduced so that business can operate efficiently in the best
interest of the people and for economic growth. Filing of 37 returns per GSTIN
could be a very time consuming exercise, wherein everyone would not even have
the bandwidth to comply with.
2. Relief must be given to small scale operators and particularly reduced processes
should be applicable to them. They do not have finance or resource to comply.
Much of India’s business is one or two man show. The facility to file quarterly
returns should be extended to assesses with up to 10 crore turnover.
3. Rates should be rationalized and reduced to make India competitive and in
interest of compliance and economic growth. The highest rate should be kept at
18% and there should be only few items that fall in 28% slab. Daily use items
such as soaps, crèmes, movie tickets, electrical goods should not be taxed at 28%.
4. Technological glitches of the GST network should be sorted out on a war
footing basis.
5. Further, there is also no provision to amend GST Return once uploaded, in case
some clerical error is found later. Provision should urgently be made to allow
rectification of returns.
6. The matching concept of input credits requires large volume of data of the
supplier to be matched with that of the receiver. This process should be
simplified, wherein only broad main criteria may require matching like the
invoice value and the tax amount and matching of specific, precise wide variety of
data should not be required like invoice number and date.
7. Valuation Rules lack clarity and are debatable. This is likely to lead to litigation
and transfer pricing issues / litigation. These rules need to be rationalized,
simplified and be fair to one and all.
8. In case IGST is paid instead of CGST and SGST, and vice-versa, the recourse
available is only refund. Assesses should be allowed to self-adjust in such cases.
9. In respect of capital goods received on or after 01.07.2017 (Capital goods in
transit), transitional credit of tax paid in earlier regime should also be available.
Transitional input credit should also be available on goods or services are
delivered or received before the appointed date and the assesse received the
invoices after appointed day.
10. Credit of Krishi Kalyan Cess should be allowed to be carried forward as eligible
credit, as it was allowed as set off in the service tax regime.
11. Composition scheme should also be provided to small scale service providers.
