Printing and issuing currency notes is the sole authority of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), which is the central bank of the country. Over the period of time, central banks change the design of banknotes to avoid the problem of counterfeit notes, and sometimes banks take action like the demonetisation of currency notes.

GST (goods and service tax)
GST
As the name suggests, it is a tax levied when a consumer buys a good or
service. It is meant to be a single, comprehensive tax that will subsume all
the other smaller indirect taxes on consumption like service tax, excise duty
etc. This is how it is done in most developed countries. It will be a
comprehensive nationwide indirect tax on the manufacture, sale, and consumption
of goods and services. The aim is to have one indirect tax for the whole
nation, which will make India a unified common market. GST will be levied and
collected at each stage of sale or purchase of goods or services based on the
input tax credit method and would make not just manufacturing but also the
interstate transportation of goods more efficient.
How will GST work and what all will it subsume?
GST is a single tax on the supply of goods and services, right from the
manufacturer to the consumer. Credits of input taxes paid at each stage will be
available in the subsequent stage of value addition, which makes GST
essentially a tax only on value addition at each stage. The final consumer will
thus bear only the GST charged by the last dealer in the supply chain, with
set-off benefits at all the previous stages.
At the central level, the following taxes will be subsumed: Central Excise Duty, Additional Excise Duty, Service Tax, Countervailing Duty (Additional Customs Duty), and Special Additional Duty of Customs.
At the State level, the following taxes will be subsumed: State Value Added Tax/Sales Tax, Entertainment Tax, Central Sales Tax, Octroi and Entry tax, Purchase Tax, Luxury tax, and Taxes on the lottery betting and gambling.
How
will GST be beneficial?
The benefits of GST
can be summarized as under:
• For business and industry
1.
Easy compliance
2. Uniformity of tax rates and structures
3. Removal of cascading
4. Improved competitiveness
5. Gain to manufacturers and exporters

value of goods and services
2. Relief in overall tax burden
2. Relief in overall tax burden
2. What
are the Earlier Opposition’s objections?
The opposition party 'Congress' wants a provision capping the GST rate at
18 percent to be added to the Bill itself. It also wants to scrap the proposed
1 per cent additional levy (over and above the GST) for manufacturing
states. This levy was demanded by manufacturing states who argued that
they needed to be compensated for the investment they had made in improving
their manufacturing capabilities. The Centre had agreed to this demand to
encourage the states to support the GST Bill.
The next demand by the Congress was to change the composition of the GST
council—the body that decides the various nitty-grittys like rates of tax,
period of levy of an additional tax, principles of supply, special provisions
to certain states, etc. The proposed composition is for the Council to be
two-thirds comprised from states and one-third from the Centre.
The Congress also wants the Centre’s share to be reduced to
one-fourth. This demand, however, was rejected by even the Rajya Sabha
Standing Committee.
·
By when will it be
implemented?
·
Assuming the Constitution Amendment Bill does pass in the Monsoon Session,
GST will still not be in force before April 1, 2017. And that is putting it
optimistically. Apart from the legislative process mentioned above, the states,
India Inc, and industries and service providers big and small, will also have
to prepare themselves for a completely new nationwide tax regime.
·
How would GST be
administered in India?
·
There will be two components of GST – Central GST (CGST) and State GST
(SGST). Both Centre and States will simultaneously levy GST across the value
chain. The tax will be levied on every supply of goods and services. Centre
would levy and collect Central Goods and Services Tax (CGST), and States would
levy and collect the State Goods and Services Tax (SGST) on all transactions
within a State.
·
·
The input tax credit of CGST would be available for discharging the CGST
liability on the output at each stage. Similarly, the credit of SGST paid on
inputs would be allowed for paying the SGST on output. No cross utilization of
credit would be permitted.
