As you must be aware of the fact that GST roll out is stuck in the way because of several serious issues. The expected roll out is 1st July 2017. GST is a very ambitious project of the Indian Government. The new tax reform has taken two decades to come up and several GST Suvidha Providers have been formed who will provide their services over the GST.
Now, many companies have started working on GST software that will work as a bridge between the users and the GST structure. Some companies have even released their GST mobile application as well. However, some services are free to use but the Software utilities might cost you some money.
DEMO/Registration Utility/Learning Modules of GST Software is the terminologies from which Companies are misleading their potential customers. For any company how it is possible to provide a demo of the GST software before the release of Acts, Forms and other related things from the Government of India’s side. The Government keeps on changing the structure of GST Taxation, like Forms which Government has provided recently is completely different from the Forms which Government has provided earlier. Before final announcement of GST Implementation from Government, if any company is claiming that they have developed the “DEMO of GST”, then this clearly indicates that either they are providing Incorrect demo of the GST software (in which they have just incorporated thing which is released by Government till now and subject to change/remove) or they are providing Incomplete demo (in which they haven’t incorporate things which are yet not disclosed by the Government to make it complete solution). Before taking the demo of GST you should ask some simple question to yourself.
Some companies are taking some advance booking amount from customers and giving them promises to provide GST software whenever it will be launched. How correct is it to take prior money when there is still lots of uncertainty regarding Implementation of GST? Will these companies return the money if by any chance GST will not implement in India? How ethical is it to take advance money for some product which is not certain to be launched? And many more questions are there which are confusing the common people.
Hence we want to share some question which should come in your mind whenever any company approach you for GST:
Q. How can a company work on demo before Government’s final release?
Q. How can a company include things which are not even disclosed by the Government yet?
Q. How will a company accommodate the changes which can be modified or removed by the government at any point of time in the future?
Q. Will any company understand the complexity of the GST structure before the government has explained it?
Q. Do these companies are just aiming to take your contact details by saying Book the Sale?
Q. Where is the environment of GST Structure in which potential customer will check the Demo of GST software as before 30 June 2017, actual testing of the GST software will not possible?
Q. How is it possible to make payments without knowing the software details?
Q. Is it good to believe in fake promises regarding the GST software feature?
Q. Does the company is done with final testing?
Q. Are you under the influence of attractive offers and discount scheme on Software?
