I was wondering,
What does GST
stand for?
It stands for
Goods and Service
Tax
Ohh!! Again one
more tax
No!! Now there will be only one
indirect tax i.e. GST. Other
taxes such as Excise Duty, VAT,
Service Tax, Entertainment Tax,
Entry tax etc shall be replaced
by GST.

But I heard that there
are three taxes and
not one?? Is there
only one GST???
You are partially correct. There
is only one GST. However,
there are three types of GST –
Central GST (CGST), State
GST (SGST) and Integrated
GST (IGST).

Intrastate Supply
(within the state)
CGST SGST
Interstate Supply
(outside the state)

Ohh!! So there
are 3 types of
GST. But I am not
sure how will it
work.
Ok!! I will explain you
with a simple
example.
Example – A : Intrastate Supply (Supply within the state)
Supply of Goods/Services Rs. 100
CGST @10% Rs. 10*
SGST @ 10% Rs. 10*
Example – B : Interstate Supply (Supply outside the state)
Supply of Goods/Services Rs. 100
IGST @ 20% Rs. 20*
. *rates are taken for example

Hmm!!! Can we take the
credit of the tax paid on
inputs and utilize the
same for payment of
output GST??
Yes, a registered person can
take the credit of the tax paid on
inputs purchased by it and
further, it can utilize the credit for
the payment of output GST. I will
explain it with a simple example.
Example – B has purchased the goods from A and paid GST of Rs. 20. B
will take the credit of Rs. 20. When B will sell the goods further, he will
charge Rs. 28 from its customer but remit Rs. 8 (Rs.28 minus Rs.20) to
Govt. by utilizing input tax credit of Rs. 20.

So, This means GST paid
on inputs can be utilized
for payment of output
GST, without any
restrictions??
No, There are conditions for
utilization of GST. As I told you
earlier, there are three types of
GST. So there are certain
restrictions on utilization of
credit, which is explained in the
below chart.
