4 Q.What are CGST, SGST and IGST?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The GST needs to have clear provisions on what areas the Centre and the State are allowed to collect revenue from taxation to prevent an overlapping.<\/p>\n

The Central GST or CGST is the area where Centre has the powers and State GST or SGST where the state has taxation capabilities. The IGST or Integrated GST is for movement of goods within the states of the Indian Union.<\/p>\n

5Q. What are the changes accepted by Union Cabinet?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Union Cabinet agreed to drop 1% manufacturing tax (proposed 1% additional levy over and above GST) and providing guarantee to compensate States for any revenue loss in the first five years of the rollout of GST.<\/p>\n

The bill was earlier passed in Lok Sabha in May, 2015, where the Centre had proposed 100% compensation for first 3 years and 75% and 50% for the next two years. However, the select committee of the Rajya Sabha has now recommended 100% compensation for probable loss of revenue for five years.<\/p>\n

6Q. Why does GST need a constitutional amendment?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Under the law, only Centre can impose taxes on services provided. But if GST is in place, states need to be allowed to collect service taxes as well. Hence, there needs to be constitutional amendment to empower states to do so. This will be 122nd constitutional amendment bill.<\/p>\n

7 Q. Is there a last date for the government to implement GST?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

1st April 2017<\/strong> is set as the deadline for rolling-out theGST.<\/p>\n

8 Q. How will it become a law?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The bill passed in Rajya Sabha will now be sent back to the Lok Sabha, which had passed it last year, for the amendments to be cleared by the lower house. It will then need the President\u2019s assent and approval of 15 States, half of India\u2019s 29.<\/p>\n
