Description

Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a comprehensive indirect tax system introduced in India on July 1, 2017. It replaced multiple taxes like VAT, CST, Service Tax, Central Excise Duty, and Entertainment Tax. GST ensures uniform taxation across India, simplifying compliance and reducing tax-related complexities for businesses.

GST registration is mandatory for businesses with an annual turnover exceeding ₹40 lakh (₹20 lakh for service providers). Additionally, businesses involved in inter-state supply or those operating through e-commerce platforms must register under GST.

1. GST Tax Rates: The GST tax rates in India range from 0% to 28%, depending on the nature of goods or services being supplied.

2. Input Tax Credit (ITC): Registered businesses can claim input tax credit on purchases, allowing them to reduce their overall tax liability by offsetting the tax paid on inputs.

3. GST Return Filing: GST registrants are required to file monthly or quarterly returns, along with one annual return. The tax payments must be made every month.

4. Composition Scheme: Small businesses with an annual turnover of less than ₹1.5 crore can opt for the Composition Scheme, which offers simplified compliance with lower tax rates ranging from 1% to 5%. Under this scheme, businesses need to file quarterly returns.


GST Composition Scheme

The GST Composition Scheme is designed for small taxpayers with an annual turnover of up to ₹1.5 crore. It simplifies tax compliance by reducing the need for monthly returns and allowing businesses to pay GST at nominal rates (1% to 5%) based on turnover. Under this scheme, businesses cannot avail of input tax credit and must file quarterly returns.


Types of GST Registration

  • Regular Scheme: Involves standard compliance with GST rates between 0% to 28%. Regular taxpayers can avail input tax credit and are required to file monthly returns.
  • Composition Scheme: Offers simplified compliance for small businesses with a fixed GST rate of 1% to 5%. Composition taxpayers cannot avail input tax credit and must file quarterly returns.

Penalty for Not Registering Under GST

As per Section 122 of the CGST Act, businesses failing to register under GST are liable to a penalty of ₹10,000 or 10% of the tax due, whichever is higher. Additionally, businesses will need to pay GST on the supplies made along with applicable interest, irrespective of whether they collected GST from customers or not.

Failing to register for GST can also result in:

  • Goods and vehicle detention or confiscation.
  • Ineligibility to claim input tax credit or transfer credits.
