Significant reforms are proposed for the Goods and Services Tax (GST) regime, including the introduction of a simplified return filing system from April 1st, 2020. This new system aims to make filing easier with features like SMS filing for nil returns and pre-filled return options. Additionally, Aadhaar-based verification for taxpayers will be implemented to help identify and remove non-existent businesses. A dynamic QR-code for consumer invoices is also proposed, which will capture GST details upon payment and may include a cash reward incentive for customers to request invoices.
