GST Going to Create Extra Compliance Burden: Keshav Garg

By Tricitynews Reporter

Chandigarh 19^th May:- Chandigarh based CA Keshav R Garg said that t​hey said GST will simplify the way businesses have been carried out in India. The biggest advantage which GST was supposed to give was relief from unnecessary litigations on classification of goods, tax rates and procedural aspects. Reality seems to be far away from the plans built in dreams. Yesterday GST council decided the rates of tax and fitted almost over 1000 goods in the rate structure of Nil, 5%, 12%, 18%, 28%. Such fitments would certainly lead to rise in litigations on classification of goods similar to those in present Central Excise Act 1944. Nothing has changed; tiny difference will change the rate of tax applicable on a particular commodity. For example, pulses if sold open would attract NIL rate whereas if the same pulses are packed and sold under a brand name, they shall attract 5% GST. Another instance is that where the chemicals are used as fertilizers they shall attract NIL rate otherwise same chemicals will be subject to 12%.  Does GST really intend to end the classification issues? Why it can’t be that particular commodity irrespective of the manner in which it is sold/used shall attract same rate.  

Keshav R Garg said that toughness in of doing business that GST is going to create is the extra compliance burden in terms of 37 returns annually, matching concept, tedious Input Tax Credit Provisions etc. The law should be easily understood and implemented. Taxation law which is beyond the understanding of taxpayer will certainly lead to chaos once implemented.

He mentioned that non-coordination of the state and centre revenue authorities will also prove GST a nightmare for taxpayers. Despite these authorities required to work collectively under GST regime, they are conducting programs by and large separately without the participation from the other authority. It is necessary that both the state and centre authorities should conduct programs collectively in order to build that trust & confidence amongst the taxpayers that both of them have positive outlook towards GST. Such programs without the participation of both the authorities are misleading the taxpayers. Even today when we are so close to implementation of biggest business reform, taxpayers are not even clear about the levy and charge of GST upon them. 

The intent of GST to ease doing business is gone. From classification issues, cascading effect, faulty structures all are now imbibed in newly born GST.

Pumpkart.com Gets Seed Capital

By Tricitynews Reporter

Chandigarh 19^th May:- Dr. Ritesh Malik, founder of Innov8 & Project Guerrilla has invested seed capital in Chandigarh based startup ‘Pumpkart’. Pumpkart is India’s largest online niche platform for selling water pumps started by KS Bhatia in 2014. Water pump industry is growing at a 15% annual rate & bound for growth as water scarcity hits developing nations like India.

KS Bhatia has the vision to create the less known & non-exciting pump industry into a technology led high moving consumer good. With his vision to sell pumps by educating customers & creating a deeply penetrated distribution network, KS Bhatia has created an apple style store in Chandigarh which sells pumps of various brands including his own.

When asked about the news, KS Bhatia said that it's great to have Dr. Ritesh Malik on board in our vision to solve one of India’s most challenging problems, water. India is exporting pumps to over 100 countries in the world but still, the domestic market is highly fragmented. Our focus is not to deviate from our core which is the pump industry & revolutionize the way pumps are being bought & used in the country.

Pumpkart is also experimenting with Pumpkart Services, a platform to service the pumps bought from the platform. Bhatia mentions that Pumpkart is working on revolutionizing after sales service, which in the Pump Industry has been quite inefficient. KS Bhatia said that creating a technology platform for farmers etc. who are the largest consumers of water pumps helps them keep their log of inefficient pumps as low as possible, which in turn improves the outcome of their crops.

Dr Ritesh Malik said that KS Bhatia has an industry experience of over 17 years & his passion for changing a niche vertical like water pumps is commendable. He was moved by the sheer passion & focus he has for a non-glamorous product like water pumps. He’s one of the most determined entrepreneurs he has met in his life.

Earlier this year, Sundar Pichai mentioned ‘Pumpkarts’ example in his visit to India, & appreciated Bhatia for his vision of converting a traditionally run offline business into an online initiative.
