What Is GST

GST is an Indirect Tax which has replaced many Indirect Taxes in India. The Goods and Service Tax Act was passed in the Parliament on 29th March 2017. The Act came into effect on 1st July 2017; Goods & Services Tax Law in India is a comprehensive, multi-stage, destination-based tax that is levied on every value addition.

In simple words, Goods and Service Tax (GST) is an indirect tax levied on the supply of goods and services. This law has replaced many indirect tax laws that previously existed in India.

GST is one indirect tax for the entire country.

So, before Goods and Service Tax, the pattern of tax levy was as follows:

Under the GST regime, the tax is levied at every point of sale. In the case of intra-state sales, Central GST and State GST are charged. Inter-state sales are chargeable to Integrated GST.

Now let us try to understand the definition of Goods and Service Tax – “GST is a comprehensive, multi-stage, destination-based tax that is levied on every value addition.”

Multi-stage

There are multiple change-of-hands an item goes through along its supply chain: from manufacture to final sale to the consumer.

Let us consider the following case:

Purchase of raw materials
Production or manufacture
Warehousing of finished goods
Sale to wholesaler
Sale of the product to the retailer
Sale to the end consumer

Value Addition

Services Tax is levied on each of these stages which makes it a multi-stage tax.

The manufacturer who makes biscuits buys flour, sugar and other material. The value of the inputs increases when the sugar and flour are mixed and baked into biscuits.

The manufacturer then sells the biscuits to the warehousing agent who packs large quantities of biscuits and labels it. That is another addition of value after which the warehouse sells it to the retailer.

The retailer packages the biscuits in smaller quantities and invests in the marketing of the biscuits thus increasing its value.

GST is levied on these value additions i.e. the monetary value added at each stage to achieve the final sale to the end customer.

Destination-Based

Consider goods manufactured in Maharashtra and are sold to the final consumer in Karnataka. Since Goods & Service Tax is levied at the point of consumption. So, the entire tax revenue will go to Karnataka and not Maharashtra.

What is Income Tax

Income Tax refers to the tax you pay directly to the government depending on your income or profit (for companies/local authorities). The money collected by this direct tax route is used by the Government for infrastructural developments and, also, to pay the employees of central and state government bodies.

Taxes levied by the Government are of two types- Direct taxes and Indirect taxes. Indirect taxes are those that are levied on services and goods. Direct taxes, on the other hand, are levied on profits and income. For example, service tax is what you pay in a restaurant and is an indirect tax, whereas Income Tax that is deducted from your salary every month in the form of TDS, is an example of direct tax.

Income Tax Act of India, passed in 1961, governs the provisions for income tax as well as the various deductions that are applicable to it. However, since 1961, the law has been amended several times to take care of inflation and other socio-economic situations.

Income Tax Overview

Income Tax is undoubtedly the most important source of revenue for the Indian government. It is established as an inevitable imposition on the citizens in order to raise funds for fulfilling the development & defence needs of the country.

Taxes imposed on income, purchase, sale, and property help the government to run different government embodiment and machinery.

In India, the first Income Tax Act was introduced in 1860. It was implied by James Wilson to overcome heavy losses suffered by the British Government due to India’s freedom movement in 1857. The history of Income Tax in India is divided into 3 different periods:

1860-1885
1886-1914
1914 till date

Currently, the Income Tax Act 1961 is applicable in India. In 1956, the government referred the request to impose Income Tax Act. The Law Commission further submitted its report on the Income tax Act in 1958 and the same year, Chairman Shri Mahavir Tyagi, chaired the Direct Taxes Administration inquiry Commission.

The Income Tax Act, 1961 was introduced to the public. Since then, it has undergone amendments from time to time.

Types of Taxes in India

As per the Income Tax Act, there are 2 types of taxes in India:

Direct Taxes

It is borne and paid directly by the individual on whom it is imposed such as, wealth tax, income tax, gift tax, etc. The taxpayer pays this tax directly to the government without any involvement of intermediary source.

Indirect Taxes

If a tax is passed on by the taxpayer to the other person, it is an indirect tax e.g. sales tax, Value Added Tax (VAT) etc. This type of tax is paid indirectly to the Income tax department.

Who are the Tax Payers?

Any Indian citizen aged below 60 years is liable to pay income tax, if their income exceeds Rs 2.5 lakhs. If the individual is above 60 years of age and earns more than Rs 2.5 lakhs, he/she will have to pay taxes to the Government of India.
