Regional Director PHD Chamber of Commerce RG Dwivedi in a statement here on Sunday said “The Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a ground-breaking reform for the Indian economy's indirect tax regime. Through a tax credit mechanism, this tax is collected on value-added goods and services at each stage of sale or purchase in the supply chain. The Goods and Services Tax(GST) is a value added tax that will replace all the indirect taxes levied on goods and services by the government, both central and states, once it is implemented. The system allows the set-off of GST paid on the procurement of goods and services against the GST which is payable on the supply of goods or services. However, the end consumer bears this tax as he is the last person in the supply chain.”
Dwivedi further said that “The basic idea of this taxation reform is to create a single, cooperative and undivided Indian market to make the economy stronger and powerful. GST is a value-added tax, which will eliminate the cascading effect or double-taxation effect on the cost of goods and services down the value chain. GST will certainly impact the structure, incidence, computation of indirect taxes leading to a comprehensive restoration of the current tax regime in the country”.
