Approximately 4.3 million Traders have furnished an initial set of GST returns for October and the record marks the highest monthly return furnishing limit by the last date of the GST implementation.
It has been more than four months after GST rollout and now it seems that revenue loss chances have reduced. Data collected from GST Council shows that States are continuously enhancing GST collection by the remission of last due dates, a release of late payment charges for some time, and efforts of the government to attract towards compliance.
The GST Council is ready to cut down the items from the list of maximum tax slab of 28% by moving some products of daily usage and products from SMEs (Small and Medium Enterprises) to another lesser tax slab.
Out of 65 lakh taxpayers, it is now evident that only 40 lakh taxpayers have filed returns under GSTR 1 for the month of July.
After GST implementation, it may be on air that small businesses burdened with the tax but the initial report is not favouring the same.
July was the first month after GST implementation and businesses were not well-versed with the new tax system and technical glitches. Still, the GST collection was 95,000 crore.
The government of India, including Centre and States, have collected nearly Rs 92,283 crore from the Goods and Services Tax, the collection amount is the very first month after the new tax regime was implemented in the country, said Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley.
It has been two months since Goods and Services Tax Regime (GST) was implemented in the country and comes up with the new headache.
According to a top official, so far nearly 20 lakh businesses have paid returns online and it is expected that about 30 lakh businesses will pay first month returns before the deadline of 25th August.
