CHAPTER-1

Introduction Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a Value Added Tax (VAT) which is accomplished in India on April 2016. Goods and Services Tax (GST) is an indirect tax (or consumption tax) imposed in India onto the supply of goods and services. GST is imposed at each and every level in the process, but it is meant to be paid back to all the parties at various levels of production other than the end consumers. Goods and services are separated into 5 stages of tax for the collection of tax - 0%, 5%, 12%, 18% and 28%.Whereas, alcoholic drinks, electricity, petroleum products, are the products which are not taxed under GST and are taxed dist by the individual state governments, as per the old tax regime. There is a special rate of 0.25% on rough precious and semi-precious stones and 3% on gold. In addition a cess of 22% or other rates on top of 28% GST is applied on few items like cold drinks, tobacco products and luxury cars. Pre-GST, the allowable tax rate for most goods was about 26.5%, Post-GST; many goods are expected to be in the tax range of 18%. GST is one of the biggest tax reforms in India aiming to unite State economies and boost overall growth by creating a single, unified Indian market to make the economy stronger. GST is a comprehensive destination based indirect tax levy of goods as well as services at the national level. Its main objective is to consolidate multiple indirect tax levies into a single tax thus subsuming an array of tax levies, overcoming the limitations of existing indirect tax structure, and creating efficiencies in tax istration. GST Councils

GST Council is the governing body of GST which has 33 . The Union Finance Minister chairs the GST Council. The council is headed and chaired by the union finance minister Arun Jaitley helped with the finance minister of all the states of India. GST Council is an apex member committee to modify or to acquire any law or regulation or act which is based on the context of goods and services tax in India. The GST council is responsible for any revision or enforcement of rule or any rate changes of the goods and services in India. There are various negative impact also they are: 1.Inflation Rate: Inflation refers to the devaluation of money caused by a permanent increase in the price level of products. 2. India‟s GDP monthly Growth Rate India‟s economic growth was 8.4% in march 2015 which fell to 5.7% in July 2017, bottoming out from the impact of demonetization and GST. 1.1 Profile Organization Businessmen and Consumers.

1.2 Objective of the study Following are the objectives of the study: 1. To study the effects of GST on Indian Economy. 2. To study the pros and cons of GST and its impact on Indian Economy.

3. To study the feature of GST. 4. To understand the structural model of GST. 1.3 Scope of study There is a positive impact from GST on the economy but when it comes to the classification sector-wise then the GST have both negative as well as positive impact on all the sectors. Here are some sectors given and its GST is given below. Automobiles: The auto sector, including the vehicle manufacturing activity, is spread across a number of states in India and making it a very important contributor to exchequer in almost all the States. The Automobile industry was paying a current tax rate of 30-45% and now it is expected that with GST the rate will be around 18% which will be a very positive for the automobile industry and that will be profitable for both the Manufacturers/ dealers and the end consumers. The standard and the social status of the consumers get boosted. There will be a huge increase in the Automobile Industry and there will be less burden regarding tax on the final consumers with the result of implementation of Goods and Services Tax. Pharmaceuticals: The imposed and currently ed GST Bill has created a lot of awareness in the economy. The manufacturers are very positive about the new tax law regime. It will help the business by restructuring the tax structure since eight different taxes are put together in the pharmaceutical industry for now. Before GST the taxes on drugs was 13% but now GST is 12% including ayurvedic and natural drugs and 5% GST on the medicines for HIV-AIDS, malaria, TB and diabetes. GST depends upon the positive impact on the pharmaceutical part. A combination of all these into one tax would ease working together, as well as reduce the effects of number of taxes which is to be paid on one item.

Technology (Information technology and ITeS): The tax evaluation arrangement of GST has made the obligation on the assembling products from 14% to 18-20%. Thus, the costs of the product items will be high which will give either an unbiased or significantly negative effect on the Sector of Technology as a whole. But they will be profited through the reduction of tax and positive effect of other industries and can somewhat take the edge off it. Consumer durables are there: The current tax rate of this industry is between the ranges of 23-25%. Under the GST tax system it is considered to be lower around 15-18% which will put a plus effect to this industry. Cement: The business at current pays the assessment at the rate of 25% right now. After the GST istration; it is dependent upon to be settled at the rate of 18 to 20%. The telecommunications sector is presently. GST also tells about the various other scopes which are as follows: 1. GST is a system of single taxation that will lessens the number of indirect taxes. 2. In GST the prices of products and services would decrease and it proves to be beneficial for those people who are fed up of paying high prices. 3. GST will help in the growth of the Economy. 4. The taxation system will be corruption-free. 5. Less tax compliance. 1.4 Methodology 1. The study is based on secondary data and primary data and the technique which is used for data collection is through questionnaire. The sampling technique and the sample size are selected according to the problem under study.

2. Factor Analysis method is used in this project. 1.5 Hypothesis H0- Null Hypothesis: If calculated value is less than the table value then we accept the hypothesis and consider as significance. H1-Alternate Hypothesis: If calculated value is more than the table value then we accept the hypothesis and consider as rejects.

CHAPTER-2

LITERATURE REVIEW A number of research papers and articles give a detailed insight on GST. The findings from the literature are presented below:1. Dr. Shakir Shaik,Dr. S.A.Sameera, Mr. Sk.C. Firoz M.B.A., M.Phil., Ph.D., SET-TS & AP., Associate Professor Department of Management Studies Nimra Institute of Engineering & Technology, Ongole, M.B.A., Ph.D., Head & Associate Professor Department of Management Studies Nimra Institute of Engineering & Technology, Ongole, M.B.A., (Ph.D.) , SET-TS & AP., Research Scholar Department of Commerce and Business istration, Acharya Nagarjuna University, Guntur (2015) Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a complete tax imposed on manufacture, sale and consumption of goods and services at a level worldwide . One of the largest taxation reforms in India the (GST) is all set to unite State economies and increase the overall growth. Presently, companies and businesses pay lot of indirect taxes such as VAT, service tax, sales tax, entertainment tax, octroi and luxury tax. After the implementation of GST, all these taxes would cease to exist. The national level tax will be monitored by the central government. GST is also different in the way it is imposed. Currently different tax rates are imposed on goods and services and there would be only one tax rate for both goods and services. An improvement towards a complete indirect tax reforms in the country will be there. Combination of goods and services taxation would give India first class tax system and improve the collections of tax. It is expected to create a business which will be

environment friendly, as price levels come down overtime when uniform tax rate is applied. It will also improve government's fiscal health as the tax collection system would become clearer, making evasion of tax difficult. An attempt is made in this paper to study the concept of goods and service tax and its impact on Indian economy. The study also aims to know the advantages and challenges of GST as per the Indian scenario. Tax policies play vital role in the economy through their impact on both efficiency and effectiveness. This would impact the national economy, International trade, firms and the consumers. It is taken into that it is a major improvement over the already existing central excise duty at the national level and the sales tax system at the state level, GST is not a VAT plus service tax, but a major improvement is seen over the previous system of VAT and services tax. A unified tax rate will help in maintaining rationalism by treating all goods and services as same without giving any special importance to some „special‟ goods and/or services. This will decrease the litigation on divisional complexities. It is also expected that with the introduction of GST in the Indian framework that will lead to many commercial benefits which were not yet touched by the VAT system and would eventually lead to the development of the economy. At the end they concluded the GST that will surely knock the doors of India. We will be ready to deal with GST and many other changes that will be going to take place in India. Slowly and steadily India shall move to the world wide standards in taxation, corporate laws and managerial practices. 2. Monika Sehrawat, Upasana Dhanda, M.com, NET –JRF, Delhi University, India (2015) Monika Sehrawat discussed about the GST, she says that GST is one of the most important type of tax reforms in India which has been long waiting. She put light on the concept of GST that

GST was supposed to be implemented from April 2010, but due to some political problems and conflicting issues of various stakeholders it was still pending.

Due to nascent domain of Indian economy, it is requirement of time to apply GST. Consumption and productions of goods and services is increasing without any doubt and because of variety of taxes in present tax regime istration problems and consent cost is also increasing. Thus, a simplify, -friendly and free from obscures tax system is required which can be fulfilled by execution of GST. Its execution will stand for a rational tax system which will collect most of present indirect taxes and in long term it will lead to higher output, Because of this tax system there will be lot of employment opportunities and prosper GDP by 1-1.5%. The cost of doing business that is lowering and making of the domestic products more competitive in local and international market is because of implementation of GDP. Without any doubt the GST will give India a world class tax system by acquiring different treatment to manufacturing and service sector. But all this will be subject to its rational design and timely implementation. She also discussed about the need for more logical research to fix the battling interest of various stake holders. As we know that it is a complete tax system that will carries all form of indirect taxes of states and central governments as well as the unified economy into an absolute national market and making this concept rational.

Rupa Associate Professor, SCMS School of Technology and Management, SCMS Campus, Prathap Nagar, Muttom, Aluva, Cochin – 683 106 (2017) She talked about the three models of GST which is about State GST, Central GST and Dual GST and the advantages and disadvantages of GST and in her report she mentioned about lot of other things about the India's tax regime which relied heavily upon the indirect taxes and the revenue from these indirect taxes was the major source of tax revenue till tax reforms were undertaken during nineties. The major argument for heavy dependence on indirect taxes was that the majority of population of India is poor and thus widening the base of direct taxes which have some limitations. But the Indian system of indirect taxation is characterized by multiple and distorting tax on the production of goods and services which leads to distorting the productivity and lowering of economic growth. She also discussed about the endless taxes in current system out of which some are imposed by the State and rest levied by Centre, to remove this multiplicity or cascading effect of taxes and lowering the burden of the tax payer for that a simple tax is required and that is the Goods and Service Tax (GST).

At the last he also concluded that the taxation plays a significant role in the development of the economy as a whole. From the above discussion we can conclude that the GST will bring One Nation and One Tax market in the economy. The GST System is basically structured to simplify the Indirect Tax system in India which is the past tax system. Because of one tax system i.e. GST all the Indirect Taxes like Sales Tax, VAT got eliminated. As compare to past tax system in India the GST system is very easy. The present GST system also simplifies the tax related problems for the entire economy. 8. Subhamoy Banik, Advocate Arundhuti Das (Assistant Professor, Dept of Commerce and Management, K.K.University, Nalanda, India) and (Assistant Professor, Dept of Law, K.K.University, Nalanda, India) (2017) GST or Goods and Services Tax is the biggest tax reform in India since independence which was pending. GST is meant to simplify the indirect tax regime of India by replacing the cascading

effect of taxes by a single unified tax. It is the only indirect tax that directly connects all the sector of Indian economy by improving the economic growth of the country by creating the market as unified. More than 160 countries of the world have enforced GST followed by . The idea of GST in India was initiated by Atal Bihari Vajpayee in 1999. It was supposed to be executed from 1st April 2010 under the flagship program of P Chidambaram then the finance minister of UPA government but due to some political issues of various stakeholders it did not came gets enforced. He also said that there is a huge outcry against its implementation. This paper presents an overview of GST concept and many more. At the end he concluded that the Goods and Services Tax (GST) is an attempt which is not considered by the government to justify the indirect tax structure of the country. The government should study the GST mechanism which is set up by various countries across the country and also their limitations before its amendments. Undoubtly GST had simplified the already existing indirect tax system and helps to overcome the multiple effect of tax. The bill was introduced to implement unified tax but unfortunately it gets converted into a pitfall as the price of basic goods and services had got increased. It is clear that the economy is lowering due to unplanned implementation of GST. The possible solution for this problem is to make this change to GST simpler and transparent. 9.

11. Esha Bansal Assistant Professor, IEC University from Himachal Pradesh, India (2018) Esha Bansal researched op the topic of “A Study on Impact of GST on Indian Economy”. She discussed about the Taxation system in India before GST, Impact of GST on Indian economy, GST in other countries of world and lot more. Goods and Service Tax is an indirect tax imposed on the supply of goods and services. GST Law has changed many indirect tax laws that existed previously in India. GST is one form of the indirect tax for the whole country. There are 3 types of taxes under GST that is the CGST, SGST & IGST. GST will mainly vanish the multiplicity effect on the sale of goods and services. Removal of cascading effect will directly impact the cost of goods.

The research objectives focused on GST as how it works & how different sectors are affected by GST‟s implementation. She also mentioned that taxation system in the country will become proper by GST and it will make the economy efficient. The main motive of the enforcement of GST is to maintain simplicity and remove biasness from the taxation system. She discussed that GST would put India‟s indirect tax system at par with more than 140 countries. Slowly and steadily India shall move towards the worldwide standards in taxation, corporate laws and managerial practices. 12. Dr. Arekari Shanta1, Prof. R. L. Nandargi Associate Professor, Department of Management Studies, SCOE, Pune, Maharashtra, India Department of E & TC, IOT Hadapsar, Pune, Maharashtra, India(2018) Dr. Arekari Shantal briefed about the GST ecosystem in his Research Report and discussed about the India‟s largest tax reform. A complete dual Goods and Services Tax (GST) has

replaced the cascaded effect of indirect tax structure from 1 July 2017. But the concept of GST was first seen in 1999. It is important to know that GST is not a scheme for tax concession where the government has decreased the rate of tax and all the goods and services would become cheaper once GST come into force. Government was trying to fix a single Revenue Neutral Rate (RNR) on the goods and services so that the total tax revenue of the State and the Central Government remain equal. By keeping in view the features of India, four GST slabs have been set at 5%, 12%, 18% and 28% for various items or services. There is also a special tax rate for valuable metals. The rate of 18% would be applicable for most goods and services. The imposed GST regime is not a full-hearted attempt to make the indirect tax structure transparent. GST has been implemented in more than 150 countries. The Indian government should study the GST regime set up by many countries and also their limitations before enforcing it. Undoubtly, GST will make the existing indirect tax system simple and will help to eliminate inefficiencies created by the current multiple taxation system only if there is a clear picture over issues of set benchmark, revenue rate, and inclusion of products of petroleum, electricity, real estate and liquor. 13. M.Sankaran and Dr.A.Sreelatha 1. Student, 5th Year, BA.L.L.B(HONS), Saveetha School Of Law, Saveetha University, Saveetha Institute Of Medical And Technical Sciences, Chennai, Tamilnadu, India (2018) 2. Professor, Saveetha School Of Law, Saveetha University, Saveetha Institute of medical and technical sciences, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India (2018) They both discussed about the impact of GST on Agriculture sector and its impact on Insurance sector. The Goods and Services Tax (GST) is an added duty which is to be implemented in India,

a decision which was pending. GST is the main expense that influences all parts of our economy. The products and enterprises charge (GST) is gone for bringing together market that will profit both corporate and the economy. No qualification is made amongst merchandise and services for collecting of assessment under the GST plot. As such, enterprises and merchandise draw in a same rate of duty. GST consists of a multi-level evaluation where excess weight of expense fall on the shopper of merchandise/istrations. It is called as esteem duty in ray of the fact that at every stage, assess is being paid on the esteem expansion. Under the GST a man who was at risk to pay assess on his produce, in spite of whether for arrangement of istration or offer of products, is qualified for getting input in charge credit (ITC) on the expense paid on its inputs. Enforcement of the Value Added Tax (VAT) at the Central and the State level has been considered to be a remarkable factor in the dimension of changes in India. In the event that the VAT is a remarkable change over the pre-existing Central extract obligation at the national level and the business assess framework at the State level, at that point the Goods also, Services Tax (GST) will for sure be an additional advantage. India has seen a change in duties in the course of the last twenty years with the substitution of State deals imposed by Value Added Tax (VAT) in 2005. Preceding VAT execution, the assessment structure was viewed as dangerous principally due to the "falling impact of charges" whereby a thing is burdened more than once. Exporters were less focused in the universal market because of the large information costs included which includes taxation rate of a ware which expands complex as it is burdened over and over through the previous deals charge mode – reflected in higher costs of items when contrasted with contenders worldwide. To stay away from this type of an evaluation structure, VAT was shown so imposes are paid on the "esteem included part" by each maker and the issues of the reducing impact are eliminated.

14. Amandeep kaur Assistant Professor, Baba Farid College, Bathinda. (2018) Amandeep Kaur discussed about the need for GST in India and impact of GST on the prices of Goods and Services. In India, the idea of GST was introduced in 2004 by the Task Force on enforcement of the Fiscal Responsibility and Budget Management Act, 2003, named Kelkar Committee. Under the Goods and Service Tax mechanism, every person is liable to pay tax on output and shall be given rights to enjoy credit on input tax paid and tax has to be imposed only on the amount of value added to the goods and services. The latest tax system was introduced at a function in Central Hall of Parliament on 1st July, 2017 (at midnight). GST, which tells about the principle of "one nation, one tax, one market" which is focused at unifying the country to the common market. Under GST, goods and services fall under five tax categories that are 0 %, 5%, 12 %, 18 % and 28%. She also explained the removal of different taxes will do the ease of doing business better, for consumers the biggest profit would be a decrease in the overall tax burden on goods. She also briefed that the inflation will come down and avoidance of tax will become difficult. The Lok Sabha has finally ed the Goods and Services Tax Bill and it is expected to have a great impact on each and every industry and consumer. It also aimed at boosting the Indian economy and this will be done by making the tax system simple and unified for all states throughout India. At the end she concluded that because of GST there is a fall in prices of Auto Commercial Vehicle, Two wheelers, Small cars, Midsized cars and SUV, essential items, Footwear, Building Materials etc. and education, healthcare are going to be exempted from GST but on the other

hand, price of some other goods and services will increase after GST like Hotel room rental, Restaurants & fine dining and Branded Apparels. There was fear of inflation before GST rolled out. 15. Pallavi Kapila Assistant Professor, Department of Sociology, MCM DAV College for Women, Sector 36, Chandigarh (2018) Pallavi talked about GST and its Impact on Indian Economy and she stated that GST stands for “Goods and Services Tax” which is executed by the Government of India since 1st April, 2017 this year. Its introduction by the Constitution Act, 2016 was considered to be one of the most important steps in the domain of indirect tax reform structure of India. Therefore, GST was defined as a complete consumption based tax imposed upon manufacture, sale and consumption of goods as well as services which helped in changing the country into unified similar market. Many arguments were raised about GST after its implementation. The research paper will throw some light on how Goods and Services Tax (GST) would help in decreasing the existing issues of taxes in India as it carries the Value Added Tax (VAT), Excise Duty, Service Tax and Sales tax. The first phase of the paper talks about the introduction part. Second part of the paper discussed about the impact of GST on Indian economy. At the last section will focus on conclusion part of the paper. He concluded that the enforcement of GST had played a vital role in the growth of Indian economy. A unified and transparent taxation system in India would lead to lesser disruptions in the market economy and more efficient distribution of resources within the industry apart from this it would also lead to the growth in the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) .
