ITEMS
BHARAT D SARAWGEE & CO.
Textiles even if placed in merit Goods, the proposed rate is high compared to 4%-
6% RNR for Cotton Textiles
Blocking of Working Capital on account of payment of taxes
Market highly price sensitive- Higher GST will increase price -detrimental to
market share
Input taxes blocked will be passed on to the consumer
Removal of duty difference in Integrated Mills and Power looms -Promotion of
Process Integration and earning of economies of scale
Difficult to break Tax Net- Exemption limit is only Rs 10 lacs
IMPACT
BHARAT D SARAWGEE & CO.
Incentive to Modernisation- Cost of Input Capital Goods will be lowered to
the extent of input Credit
Compliance simplification- One Tax one law
Incentive to deal with GST compliant suppliers, as Input Credit not taken by
the non complied supplier will add to the cost
IMPACT
BHARAT D SARAWGEE & CO.
MAN MADE FIBRES
Fibre Neutrality in Textile Eco System- Similar duties for the industry with no
differentiation to Natural fibres
Level Playing Field- will be competitive with Cotton textiles in line with World
market scenario
Encouragement for production of MMF against Cotton
Huge Boost for increase in Export Market- Heavy demand for MMF
Import of Machinery will become cheaper as credit of IGST will be available
against earlier non utilization of CVD- incentives of Duty refund on Capital goods
available in Natural Fibres only
IMPACT
BHARAT D SARAWGEE & CO.
Export to be classified as Zero rated Supply
Input Credits on goods and services will be available as refund
Duty Drawback Scheme existing will become defunct
In case of Duty Drawback rates higher than input credit refund, profitability
will be impacted
Blockage of Working Capital for payment of taxes up front
IMPACT
BHARAT D SARAWGEE & CO.
Imported fabric in country will become competitive on account of Credit of
IGST against earlier non availment of CVD credit to importers
Export boost on account of total refund of input taxes
IMPACT
BHARAT D SARAWGEE & CO.
ED on MRP concept will be replaced by Transaction Value- subsidy
Blocking of Funds in Interstate Stock Transfer
Deletion of Entry tax from state list
Elimination of CST underrecoveries for traders
Elimination of state boundaries and paper work, leading to economic transportation and
reduction in cost.
Additional Monthly Returns
Complex Credit mechanism, every state to have three credit pools.
GENERAL IMPACT
BHARAT D SARAWGEE & CO.
Average RNR for Industry is approx is 9.3 with Ready made Garments being highest
18% Standard GST is very High for the sector , demotivation to Make in India strategy
12% GST for Merit Goods will also be higher compared to existing RNR
All the items in the value chain ie textile inputs and outputs to carry similar rate for non
blocking of credits
Increased revenue for Government may be shared with the Industry in form of improved
subsidy scheme
Standard GST rate of 18% may Dis incentivize Exports
REPRESENTATION BY THE INDUSTRY
BHARAT D SARAWGEE & CO.
Difficult to bring Small Scale units and unorganized sector under Tax Net- (Around
5 lacs powerloom units and and knitting units in India under Unorganised sector)
Huge Compliance to be made by SSI units , not doing any compliance in current
scenario
Sharp Increase in price of Cotton Garments
CHALLENGES
BHARAT D SARAWGEE & CO.
