The tremendous hype about the announcement of RBI Governor Mr Raghuram Rajan was followed by the referendum of Great Britain against staying as a part of The European Union. We are sure all have been updated about other developments and their foreseeable economic impact on India, hence we are restricting ourselves to the changes in taxation this week. About GST, the news is that The Central and State Departments of Indirect Taxes are firing on all cylinders to get GST ready. Hence Trade & Industry should now take the cue and start its GST Readiness. In WB Commercial Taxes, the Hov’le Fivave Mivister presented the State Budget 2016-17 before The Assembly. The Broad Reforms in Finance and Tax administration are as below – 1. Tax exemption limit of profession tax for low salaried class and wage earners is proposed to be raised to Rs 10,000 per month from The current Rs.8500/- 2. The monetary limit for filing appeal by the State is raised to Rs. 1 lakh. 3. Simplified benefit of Tax Deduction at Source (TDS) by completely dispensing with the requirement of submission of paper TDS certificate. The certificate will now be made available online for downloading by the tax payers. 4. Relief from payment of cess to tea gardens in the State - Exemption from payment of rural employment and education cess be further extended for one more year upto 31st March, 2017. 5.

OUR COMMENTS : In the above case, the assessee is engaged in providing transport of passengers services by Air embarking in India for International Journey. They are registered with the Service Tax Department for payment of service tax. The air tickets issued by the assessee to the customers reflect the passenger service fee and the airport tax which was collected by the assessee on behalf of the Government Authorities and subsequently paid to them. The Department held that the airport tax and passenger service fee shall be included in the assessable value of the services being provided by the assessee and accordingly raised demand alongwith interest and penalties. The Hov’le CE“TAT up held the Tribunal decision in the case of M/s Continental Airlines Inc. vs. CST, New Delhi reported as 2015-TIOL -1481-CESTAT- DEL where it was decided that the airport taxes as also the passenger service fees collected by the airlines on behalf of the airports and paid to them are not includable in the assessable value for the purpose of levy of service tax. The impugned order was accordingly set aside. Decided in favour of assessee] M/S JANATA SAHAKARI BANK LTD. VERSUS COMMISSIONER OF CENTRAL EXCISE, PUNE[CESTAT MUMBAI] BRIEF: Commission received from the Government for disbursement of government teachers salary, cannot be charged to Service Tax. OUR COMMENTS : In the above case, the assessee is providing service of Commission Agent for disbursement of salary of Government teachers . The Department contended that the commission received towards disbursement of salary of Government teachers, falls under the provision of "Business Auxiliary Services" accordingly, a demand of Service Tax on such commission was confirmed. The Finance Act, 2005 has inserted an explanation below Section 65(19) and has clarified that Commission agent means any person who acts on behalf of another person and causes sale or purchase of goods, or provision or receipt of service for a consideration and includes any person while acting on behalf of another person - (a) deals with goods or services or documents of title to such goods or services or (b) collects payment of sale price of such goods or services; or (c) Guarantees for collection or payment for such goods or services; or (d) undertakes any activities relating to such sale or purhase of suh goods or servie._ The Hov’le CE“TAT held that from the above definition it is clear that the commission agent is defined as a person who while acting on behalf of other person undertakes the activity as mentioned herein above para (a) to (d). In the given case, none of the above activities are carried on by assessee. Accordingly, the service charge received by the assessee is not chargeable to service tax. [Decided in favour of assessee] CENTRAL TAXES TAX CONNECT – 74th Issue JAV & ASSOCIATES (26 Jun 2016 – 02 Jul 2016) Page 8 Chartered Accountants CENTRAL EXCISE CASE LAW JOSHI TECHNOLOGIES INTERNATIONAL, INC-INDIA PROJECTS VERSUS UNION OF INDIA AND 1 [GUJARAT HIGH GOURT] BRIEF: Refund is allowed for Education Cess and Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Cess inadvertently paid on Oil cess. OUR COMMENTS : In the above case, the assessee is a Company is engaged in the extraction of crude oil falling under Chapter Heading 27090000 of the Central Excise Tariff Act, 1985. He is paying cess on the clearance of petroleum / crude oil under the provisions of section 15 of the Oil Industry (Development) Act, 1974 (hereinafter referred to as ^the OID At_). He also paid Primary Education Cess and Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Cess on Crude Oil Cess. Assessee’s ovtevtiov  The CBDT issued a circular dated 07.01.2014 clarifying that the Education Cess and Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Cess are not to be calculated on cesses which are levied under the Acts administered by Department/Ministries other than Ministry of Finance (Department of Revenue).  The Crude Oil Cess is levied by the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas and collected by the Department of Revenue, Ministry of Finance. On view of the above the assessee filed for refund of the Primary Education Cess and Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Cess on Crude Oil Cess. Departuevt’s ovtevtiov The adjudicating authority held that the Oil Cess is in the nature of excise duty because the machinery provisions of the Central Excise Act, 1944 and the rules thereunder for collection and refund have been incorporated in the OID Act. Observations of the Court  Merely because machinery provisions of Central have been incorporated in the OID Act, , it cannot be inferred that the Oil Cess imposed under the provisions of the OID Act assumes the character of central excise duty.  Cess is levied on excise duty, hence the basic requirement of levy of such cesses is not satisfied being Crude Oil cess is not excise duty.  For collection of cess, 2 more conditions are required to be met - Excise duty shall be levied by Central Government in the Ministry of Finance (Department of Revenue) - Excise duty shall be collected by Central Government in the Ministry of Finance (Department of Revenue) - In the given case, the second condition is met, however, the first condition is not met as the crude oil cess is levied by the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas Decision of the Court Crude Oil Cess is not excise duty and consequently, the Education Cess and Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Cess computed thereon, also does not bear the character of a duty of excise, but is merely an amount paid under a mistake of law. Hence, the machinery provisions under the Central Excise Act, 1944 would not apply to refund of such amount. The Hov’le High Court held that the refund shall be granted to the assessee.

On a rough estimate the corporates are expected to reduce its material cost by minimum 1% and logistic cost by 10 -15% provided proper GST structure is established. It means lot of money provided the benefits are not passed on to the customers. It is expected that the country's GDP will increase by 2% on implementation of GST. In the background of the above, we are pleased to inform you that we have launched a book on ' GOODS AND SERVICE TAX (CONCEPT, ISSUES, MODEL AND ROAD MAP) on All India basis.
