Respected All,

While having a comparative study between Present & Previous Taxation System, we observe that in present system of taxation the actual liability of GST is only on Common Man and not on Business Entity. In previous taxation system even business entity as end consumer was liable to pay VAT, because retail invoice was considered as end consumer irrespective common man or business entity. Thus the receipt of GST may increase but income through GST will decrease, because business entity is not going to pay actual GST on end consumed products and services.

Thanking You,

Namaskaram,

I have registered and migrated under GST based on my previous VAT and service tax registrations. Earlier i used to file nill returns for service tax due to turnover less than 9 lakhs (from Service) from the past 3 financial years. Also under VAT i used to file nill returns every month based on nill turnover. Why should i be taxable just because i have migrated from the old regime (which had provision to file nill returns) tto a new regime which is supposed be more advanced and citizen friendly. This is as per FAQ 18 of the GST registration guidelines answer. Kindly reply with references of my taxation.
