Respected Sir, We take this opportunity to congratulate the Union Government in getting the Model draft GST bill announced. Our special compliments to CBEC officials including All State Commercial Tax Departments who are very instrumental in bringing this code of law. While we appreciate the dynamism in making the law we find some inadequacies in providing a due place of practice for state tax practitioners which is available to us (attached)under all existing state laws proposed to be subsumed.

In GST regime, For SEZ, EOU firms pls do not continue present ARE1 forms to avail exemption for their purchases. Let these firm pay GST to their vendor and later year end let them claim back from Govt. This eliminates huge paper work and breakages in GST thread in the chain.

4. A registered businessman collect several taxes and deposit the same with the government exchequer, and in exchange he becomes the most prominent target person of the tax authority, with several type of assessment, returns and orders. In place of getting incentives, he is served notices, any improvement with this regard ?

2. Equal rate of taxes is applicable in rural areas, semi urban and urban areas. While major chunk of tax collected is spent to bring better city lives, small efforts are made for smaller town, with lesser public services, minimum hours of electricity and lots of trouble. Why is it so ?

1. Thought GST will bring ease of business and ease in taxes. But threshold limit has been kept too low. It should be increased to at least 25 Lacs and there after there should be provision for composite form to a certain limit.
