DOWNLOAD EBOOKFunds provided by taxation have been used by states and their functional equivalents throughout history to carry out many functions. Some of these include expenditures on war, the enforcement of law and public order, protection of property, economic infrastructure (roads, legal tender, enforcement of contracts, etc.), public works, social engineering, and the operation of government itself. Most modern governments also use taxes to fund welfare and public services. These services can include education systems, health care systems, pensions for the elderly, unemployment benefits, and public transportation. Energy, water and waste management systems are also common public utilities. Governments use different kinds of taxes and vary the tax rates. This is done to distribute the tax burden among individuals or classes of the population involved in taxable activities, such as business, or to redistribute resources between individuals or classes in the population.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKRestructuring of the tax system has constituted a major component of fiscal reforms in India since 1991. The main focus of the tax reforms has been on simplification and rationalization of both direct and indirect taxes, with the objective of augmenting revenues and removing anomalies in the tax structure. Tax reforms in recent years have brought the tax system much closer to international tax practices. The current structure of taxes on goods and services in India is highly complex, riddled with exemptions, and characterized by complicated compliance procedures. The strategy of the Government in respect of indirect taxes is to continue the tariff reforms process towards mean Asian levels of customs tariff, convergence towards a single rate of excise duty (with some exceptions), widening of service tax base, and a phased move towards a fully-integrated goods and services tax (GST). This book traces the evolution of taxation of goods and services (indirect taxes) in India during the post-Independence period. More importantly, it analyzes the present structure of indirect taxes and the harmonization measures undertaken by the Government in this regard. It also examines and sets forth core issues pertaining to the proposed national level GST which is expected to be rolled out in the near future.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKGoods and Services Tax (GST) was implemented in India in July 2017, after four decades of protracted deliberations amid critical socio-economic and political challenges. GST is a comprehensive multistage value added tax (VAT) on goods and services where both central and state governments share the same tax base. Finding a suitable design for GST that encompasses taxes from both the centre and the state tax brackets makes the Indian GST unique among GST implemented in other federal countries. This book is a study of the evolution of GST in India since the Report of the Indirect Taxation Enquiry Committee of 1977. It studies the following issues on GST: a) inclusion and exclusion of taxes, b) finding a suitable mechanism to handle inter-state transactions, c) finding revenue neutrality of the tax reform, d) providing compensation to states for any possible loss of revenue due to its adoption, and e) possible scope for coordination in GST administration.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis paper set forth internationally agreed principles and standards for the value added tax (VAT) treatment of the most common types of international transactions, with a particular focus on trade in services and intangibles. Its aim is to minimise inconsistencies in the application of VAT in a cross-border context with a view to reducing uncertainty and risks of double taxation and unintended non-taxation in international trade. It also includes the recommended principles and mechanisms to address the challenges for the collection of VAT on crossborder sales of digital products that had been identified in the context of the OECD/G20 Project on Base and Erosion and Profit Shifting (the BEPS Project).

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe recently introduced Goods and Services Tax (GST) is the biggest tax reform in the fiscal history of India. After missing several deadlines and overcoming almost a decade of political differences, the GST finally saw the light of day on July 1, 2017. Implementation of the GST leaves behind an inefficient, complicated and fragmented indirect tax system. The GST has subsumed a profusion of Central and State indirect taxes to create a single unified market. It is slated to make India a seamless national market, boosting trade and industry and, in turn, growth rate. The GST is expected to represent a leap forward in creating a much cleaner dual VAT. Common base and common rates will facilitate administration and improve compliance while also rendering manageable the collection of taxes on inter-State sales. By amalgamating a large number of Central and State taxes into a single tax and allowing set-off of prior-stage taxes, it would mitigate the ill effects of cascading or pyramiding and pave the way for a common national market. The ntroduction of the GST would also make India's products competitive in the domestic and international markets. This book explains various aspects of the GST in non-technical language for the benefit of a cross-section of readers, including teachers and students of economics, commerce, law, public administration, business management, legislators, business executives, and others interested in understanding the basics of the GST.
