The Goods & Services Tax Practitioners’ Association of Maharashtra 68th Annual Report (Report for the year 2018-19)

4. Law and Representation Committee-VAT The Law and Representation Committee of the GSTPAM (erstwhile known as The Sales Tax Practitioners’ Association of Maharashtra), has the honourable task of representing around 3,500 members from all across the State of Maharashtra. Year 2018 was the year of major tectonic change Pradip Kapadia Aditya S. Surte Parth Badheka in the field of Indirect Taxation. Chairman Jt. Convenor Jt. Convenor Several indirect taxes having diverse point of levies along with varied tax rates merged into a single Law colloquially called Goods & Services Tax Act (GST). The aim of undertaking such a massive transformation in the field of Indirect Taxation was to bring about uniformity and curtail the cascading effect of taxes which was the case under the earlier regime. The primary role of this Committee is to represent the legal and practical issues which are faced by the practitioners as well as the businesses during the implementation of the GST Act, VAT, Service Tax and allied law. The issues in relation to GST continued unabated despite several stop gap arrangements. That being said as usual, the issues under the earlier laws as well were very much live and constantly affecting several tax practitioners and the businesses alike. During the VAT regime, the Commissioner of Sales Tax was considered to be an authority and the best point of contact to point out issues. After GST, there are several authorities including the Central, State, and GST Council that now need to be approached. It is in the light of such issues that the role of this Committee to act as an effective bridge between the State and Central Departments and the practitioners became extremely crucial and challenging task. The Committee worked tirelessly to further enhance the reputation of GSTPA in its role as the prime association representing indirect tax practitioners in the whole of Maharashtra. During the year, the Committee held frequent meetings with the several power centres which were created due to the uniqueness of the GST administration. The Committee also frequently undertook oral as well as written representations with the Prime Ministers Office, GST Council, Hon’ble Finance Minister, Commissioner of GST (State & Centre) and several other authorities. It must be noted here that while the entire spectrum of issues ranging from a completely complex GSTR9 and 9A, ITC, inefficient network, impractical deadlines for

8 68th Annual Report Sagacity, Service, Solidarity Leads to Success

filing returns, e way bills, GSTR-1, 3B, credit notes, etc to completely clueless administration, were addressed regularly; the issues in relation to the pending matters of the previous laws were also represented from time to time. The Committee also held several academic seminars and study circle meetings to make the practitioners aware of the new provisions and to provide them assistance in their practice by further enhancing their knowledge on the new Act. The Committee in synergy with the Website Committee also arranged to broadcast the meetings on line so as to expand the reach of such knowledge dissemination programs. The Committee has also introduced a novel feature on the website, where issues faced by any one can be uploaded along with screen shots. We urge the practitioners to use the facility to the fullest. Will be helpful to the future committees in finalizing general issues which can be represented. This year the Committee evolved its approach and slightly modified the strategy of representation to make it more impactful and efficient. We had decided to adopt a more qualitative approach and hence we ensured that instead of being numerous, every representation covers multiple issues along with suggestions for improvement wherever possible. This was done in order to counter the sense of complacency which was creeping in the Department due to receipt of numerous representations. Following are the major representations by the Committee, for the sake of brevity we are not including the number of physical follow ups, emails, and such other relevant discussions with the departmental officers:

Sr. Authority Date Issues discussed in brief No. 1 Commissioner CGST 6-8-2018 This happened to be the first (Maharashtra) representation on the new proposed return formats by any association.

It was the first time that GSTPAM had invited the Departmental Authorities from Customs, Central Excise and State Tax Department together. It was unique session on refund issues where all the three Departmental Authorities guided the participants at a time.
