GST (Goods and Services Tax) is a comprehensive indirect tax that will combine multiple taxes and levies into a single tax to be applied at every stage of sale or purchase of goods and services. It aims to create a unified national market, reduce the cascading burden of taxes, and improve compliance. The tax is proposed to be dual, with the center and states concurrently levying it on a common tax base. There are still some issues being discussed such as the GST rate, tax sharing between states and center, and treatment of inter-state transactions.
GST is expected to play a key role in bringing about more transparency into the tax system. The GST as a new levy could be a very effective tool and breakthrough in indirect tax reforms, provided it is made simple and assessee-friendly – not like the present tax system. A very strong infrastructure network would be required to administer GST which would include facility for online payment of tax and e-filing of returns.
In this presentation, I tried to explain the term GST in brief.
If you have any query related to it, please ask, comment and contact. Don't forget to share.
Power point presentation for GST:-
GST is a tax on goods and services. 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
It is worth mentioning here that the levy of Excise or Service Tax was not dependent on the levy of VAT/CST, as they were governed by different laws.
These are the taxes that shall be levied under the new system of GST. How this shall operate, and how can we have cross utilisation of credits can be seen in this Document.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

20. WHY DOES INDIA NEED GST
• GST is being introduced majorly due to 2 reason
1. The current indirect tax structure is full of uncertainties due to
multiplerates.
2. Due to multiple rates there are multipleforms.
• GST the tax complexity in the prevailing tax regime.
21. GST COUNCIL
• GST levy will be administered by
1. Union finance minister(chairmen)
2. Union minister in charge of state revenue or finance
3. Minister in charge of finance or taxation.
4. Any other minister(finance minister of the state)
nominated by each state gvt would constitute the
council.
22. DISPUTE SETTLEMENT
AUTHORITY(DSA)
• Dispute between state and centre will be handled by
the DSA.
• Appeal from dsa would be dealt with supreme court.
• Example: if a state receives less revenue in comparison
with its previous one than it can appeal this case to
the dsa.
23. IMPORTANCE OF ARTICLE
246(A)
• There is resistance by the SG as VAT is the main source of
revenue for the SG.
• In 246(a) certain powers are allocated to the state
government.
• The parliament & legislature of every state will have the
power to make law with respect to goods and service tax
imposed by union(gvt) or by the state.
24. BENEFITS OF GST
Transparent Tax System
Uniform Tax system Across
India Reduce Tax Evasion
Export will be more
competitive
25. HURDLES IN IMPLEMENTATION
• Dispute between centre and Tax over Tax
Sharing
• Highly sophisticated IT infrastructure required
• .
• Issue of taxing e-commerce is to be
appropriately addressed and integrated.
• Political Imbalace
26. GST Global Scenario
More than 140 countries have already
introduced GST/National VAT.
France was the first country to introduce GST
system in 1954.
Typically it is a single rate system but
two/three rate systems are also prevalent.
Canada and
Brazil alone have a dual VAT.
Standard GST rate in most countries
ranges between 15-20%.
27. INDIA'S GST STRUCTURE IS
COMPLEX, SAYS IMF
• Reportsays the proposed GST structure will require the centre to
coordinatewith 30 states,which is an administrative challenge.
• Even as the international monetary fund (imf) says the proposed goods
and services tax (gst) will improve tax compliance and enhance
economic growth by 1-1.5 per cent over time, it finds the structureof
the indirect tax regime in india complex.
• “The gst design being contemplated is... Fairly complex, with a dual
administration arrangement that involves the tax authorities of both
the centre and statesseparatelytaxing a single transaction,” says the
fund in a reporton india.
28. GST – ADVANTAGES
& unambiguous tax
services.
scale
• As a developing country, india needs a transparent
structure
• A complex tax structure with multiple rates of taxes
• Multiple taxes across the supply chain
• High transaction cost in the hands of the tax payers
• Increased tax collections due to wider tax base and better compliance
• Improvement in international cost competitiveness of indigenous goods and
• Enhancement in efficiency in manufacture and distribution due to economies of
• GST encourages an unbiased tax structure that is neutral to business processes,
business models, organization structure, product substitutes and geographical
locations
• Helping as a weapon against corruption
• GST operates on a negative list i.e. All goods and services are subject to GST
unless specifically exempted
•
29. GST – ADVANTAGES
• Nature of complexities i.e. Classification to
valuation regarding taxability, exist in the present
structure.
Some of such burning issues are:
Excise on MRP
Excise, VAT and service tax on software,
VAT & service tax on:
• Works contracts
• Right to use
30. GST : PROPOSED KEY
FEATURES
Dual GST : central GST & state GST
Destination basedstate GST
Uniform classification
Uniform forms – returns, challans ( in electronic
mode)
No cascading of central and state taxes
Cross credit betweencentre and state not allowed
Tax levied from production to consumption
31. GST : GLOBAL
PERSPECTIVE
• It has been a part of the tax landscapein Europefor the past 50 years.
• It is fast becoming the preferred form of indirect tax in the Asia-
pacific region.
• While countriessuch as Singapore and new Zealand tax virtually
everything at a single rate, Indonesia has five positive rates,a zero rate
and over 30 categoriesof exemptions.
• In china, GST applies only to goodsand the provision of repairs,
replacementand processing services.
• It is only recoverable on goodsused in the productionprocess, and gst
on fixed assets is not recoverable.
• There is a separatebusiness tax in the form of vat.
32.
33. GST : GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE
• Goods and servicestax in brazil
• Brazil was the first country to adopt GST system.
• Brazil has adopted a dual gst where the tax is levied
by both the central and the provincial
governments.
• Gst rate is 20 %.
34. GST- CAN WE ADOPT IT
• An information network allowing GST Council to cross-
check payment information should be developed.
• What is needed is an IT system like the tax information
network (tin),where the TDS or the vat credit is recorded
in a central database.
• Paper bills and fraud to be largely eliminated.
35. KNOWING MORE ABOUT GST
• We all will pay GST on every product or service we buy/
consume
• All indirect taxes levied by the states and the centre will be
merged into one GST, we would exactly know how much tax we
pay which at present is difficult to understand.
• The sellers or service providers collect the tax from their
customer.
• Before depositing the same to the exchequer, they deduct the tax
they have already paid.
• The success of GST would rest upon efficiency, equity and
Simplicity.
