Impact Of GST On various sectors

GST (Goods and Solutions Tax) is the best indirect tax change of India. GST is only one tax on the supply of goods and services. GST may not be the best individual tax system but it is working. There are many conditions continue to be resolved, but the fact that many knotty ones have been settled gives increase to assurance that even these will be categorized out.
The Intent Of The GST
On  1st July 2017, India introduced about GST (Goods and Services Tax) to change the hotchpotch of indirect taxes that existed at the time and to improve tax compliances.
The GST has subsumed service tax, VAT, central excise,  and other local levies to create a regular market. GST is estimated to increase GDP development by about 2%  and check tax evasion. States successfully pass their Condition GST or SGST law that allows them to impose sales tax after levies like VAT are subsumed.

Benefits Of GST To The Indian Economy

  • Removal of different type of indirect taxes such as VAT, Service tax, CST, CAD, SAD, and Excise.
  • Less tax submission and refined tax policy comparison to the previous tax structure.
  • Reduction of production costs due to diminishing the burden of taxes on the production segment. Hence the prices of consumer goods have been down.
  • Reduce the burden on the common man i.e. people are giving shed less money to buy the same products that were costly earlier.
  • Increased requirement and intake of goods.
  • Increased demand that leads to increasing supply. Hence, this ultimately lead to rises in the production of goods.
  • Due to the non-intrusive as well as clear tax program, the GST has led to a decrease in black transactions flow, Especially, GST is a self-regulating online tax program.
  • Enhance to the Indian economy in the long run.

Impact Of GST On Some Segments:
After the implementation of the Goods and Service Tax (GST) in India, we can see both its positive and negative impact on different segments. From the perspective of the customer, consumer, they would now have pay more tax for most of the products and services they consume. The greater part daily consumables now draw the same or a high amount of tax. Moreover, the GST implementation has a cost of compliance attached to it.
Let’s check the impact on various sectors –
FMCG
The FMCG industry is facing huge savings in organization, and distribution costs as the GST has eliminated the need for multiple sales depots.  FMCG industry is the most significant economic systems in India. After the GST implementation, most FMCG products and services are taxed under 18 to 20 per cent, much lower than the previous rates benefitting consumers.
BFSI
Though the tax increased from 15 per cent to 18 per cent, a major benefit of GST on financial services has a decrease in the number of indirect taxes.
It combines different taxation and helps to ensure that the tax burden is fairly divided between different entities involved in the system.
E-commerce
The e-commerce industry in India has been increasing by leaps and bounds.  Often, GST  will help the e-commerce sector’s ongoing development but the long-term results will be particularly exciting because the GST law particularly suggests a Tax Selection at Resource (TCS) procedure, which e-commerce organizations are not too satisfied with. The present amount of TCS is at 1%.
IT Industry
Earlier, the IT sector was paying  15 % service tax in comparison to 18 % after the imposition of GST, resulting in an immediate increase in the cost of enactment. Overall effect here is fairly neutral or a little bit negative.
Textile/Readymade Garment Sector
The Textile market has benefited through GST implementation. As most of textile industry activities were earlier out of the tax net but GST has tried to improve compliances.
Logistics
After the GST rollout, India successfully jumped 19 positions in the Logistics Performance Index. The implementation of e-way bills was also a brave move.
After a shaky start, the second innings of e-way bill system implementation has been successful. Physical check posts have been removed from the states, thereby reducing the transit time and increasing the income per vehicle.
Real Estate
A year since GST, there is no question that the real estate has seen higher transparency. For the real estate to guide a new era of development and growth for the nation, it is crucial for the taxes environment to be extremely favourable for all stakeholders of the Indian real estate.
Telecom
Earlier, the Telecommunications industry was spending 14 % of the tax to the regulating body, but the rate of tax under GST is 18 % and the organizations have passed the burden to its clients.
Freelancers
Outsourcing in Indian is still a nascent sector and the policies for this chaotic market are still up in the air. But with GST, it will become much simpler for freelance workers to submit their taxation as they can quickly do it on the online. The new tax form has gotten about reliability and responsibility in this sector.
Agriculture
The farming sector is the biggest contributing industry the overall Native Indian GDP. It includes around 16% of Indian GDP. One of the major issues experienced by the agricultural industry is the transport of agri-products across state lines all over the country. GST resolved the issue of transportation.
Automobiles
The automobile sector in India is a huge business which is manufacturing a number of vehicles yearly, fueled mostly by the huge inhabitants of the country. Under the previous tax system, there were several taxations applicable to this industry like road tax, sales tax, excise, VAT,  automobile tax, signing up responsibility which has subsumed by GST.
Lately, there have been many rumours regarding the Goods and Service Tax (GST) in India, but the greatest benefit that it is likely to provide is a rise in the job opportunities. GST has merged several Central and State taxes into a single tax system, making it much easier and cost-effective for the taxpayers. The lower boost the business challenge conditions and motivate entrepreneurs to increase their projects, which in turn enhances the use in India.
