Under GST, the input tax credit can be availed smoothly across the spectrum of goods and services, thus reducing the tax burden on the end user and removing cascading effect. i.e tax on tax effect, he said, adding, it will bring respite from tax burdens to many small businesses.

While elaborating on the benefits ofGST, Gupta said itwill also bring down prices of most of the goods resulting in lower inflation since the government has kept food items out of GST and even items of mass consumptions have been put under lower slabs of GST.

GST also has Composition scheme of lower taxes for small businesses with turnover between Rs. 20 to 75 lakhs. Traders, manufacturers and Restaurant owners will pay 1%, 2% and 5% tax in this scheme respectively.

Startups do not have to run around to tax offices to get various registrations under excise, VAT, service tax. Assesses will also be subject to single control either by Central or State authorities resulting in more transparent and efficient tax administration.

After GST implementation, inter-state movement of goods will be lessened and the logistics sector might start consolidating warehouses across the country. Reduction in unnecessary logistics costs will increase profits for businesses involved in supply of goods through transportation, he said.
