GST Council reboots panel for system reforms
The Goods and Services Tax (GST) Council has reconstituted a ministerial group tasked with identifying possible sources of revenue evasion, improving coordination between the central and State GST authorities, and reviewing the IT systems in place for implementing the indirect tax.
These changes have been effected in order to bring in new ministers from the States of Andhra Pradesh, Odisha, and Chhatisgarh where new governments have been installed in recent months, as well as replace the representative from Haryana.
The reconstitution of this critical GST panel comes soon after the Council reformulated the ministerial group tasked with recommending a rationalisation of the GST rate structure and its tax rates. The panel, originally headed by former Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai, is now headed by Bihar Deputy CM Samrat Chaudhary.
