Introduction

A comprehensive dual Goods and Services Tax (GST) has replaced
the complex multiple indirect tax structure from 1 July 2017.
Introduction of Goods and Service Tax (GST) is a significant step in
the reform of indirect taxation in India. Various Central and State
taxes are amalgamated into a single tax which helps mitigate the
double taxation, cascading, multiplicity of taxes, classification
issues, taxable event and leading to a common national market. A
comprehensive dual GST has replaced the complex multiple indirect
tax structure from 1 July 2017.

DESTINATION PRINCIPLE
The GST structure follows the destination principle. Accordingly,
imports are subject to GST, while exports & supply to SEZ qualify as
zero-rated supply. In the case of inter-State transactions within
India, the State tax shall apply in the State of destination as
opposed to that of origin. Under this system, tax is administered,
collected, and shared by both the Centre and the State
governments, based on the nature of transaction (within the state
or interstate).

PLACE OF SUPPLY
GST is a destination based tax i.e. the goods/services will be taxed at
the place where they are consumed and not at the origin. Place of
supply of goods/services under GST defines whether the
transaction will be qualified as intra-state or inter-state, and
accordingly levy of SGST, CGST & IGST will be determined.
