Restructuring 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.

The 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.

National level goods and services tax (GST) is India's most ambitious indirect tax reform. Its objective is to levy a single uniform tax across India on goods and services. GST, when implemented, would replace a number of Central and State taxes, making India more of a national integrated market, and bring more producers into the tax net. The changeover to GST, it is claimed, would significantly contribute to the buoyancy of tax revenues, acceleration of growth, and generation of many positive externalities. The present edited volume contains 19 research articles (divided into 5 sections) authored by experts in the field of public finance. GST has now been implemented in 160 countries and case studies have been provided in this volume for an effective comparison. The detailed impact of GST on consumers, business, government, individual sectors/industries, and national growth, along with a comparative analysis of GST with current indirect taxes, is given an in-depth analysis. The included contributions provide insights into various aspects of GST, adding to the heated debate on the implications of this game-changing tax reform.
