North Block watches as GSTN plays havoc with PM's historic tax reform!


A GOOD SYSTEM BADLY IMPLEMENTED

Thanks for your timely article on failure of GSTN System. The current havac and revenue leakage are result of poor implementation system. Some of the exampes are as under:-
Matching system was the crux of the GSt returns. Non payment of GST and issuance of Invoices years is the basic failure system. The field staff of GST is not in position to analyse data even available in portal due to lack of infrastructure. If R-1 and related credit matching has been enabled earlier no such instances held.
2. Recently automated refund system introduced, that is good step but the problem is incompetency in the part of field formation who reject refund claim even all the documents uploaded in portal by applicants, and poor applicant again file the same.
3. How the Officers analyse the data of assesses, which do not contain details of quantity in R-1, how price comparison can be done and correct valuation be ascertained due to lack of complete data in GST Portal. The HSN summary contain quantity which can not be a basis of analysis of Invoices.
Above are some of the example and list is long. The poor implementation of the system is the root cause of failure of GSTN, although it has many defects.
The poor assesses suffer from all this and this one increased the trust deficit and no one is willing to do anything new due to this poor stage of GST implementation.
As suggested by you, the PM should himself resolve the matter.
