Government monitoring e -commerce platforms to transfer price discounts under GST 2.0

To ensure a smooth transition and transfer of price discounts under commodity and services tax (GST), it is understood that the government is monitoring prices, especially those on e -commerce platforms.

According to the sources, complaints were reported that the high prices of the selected elements were reported, and then the government was withdrawing e -commerce operators. These have been corrected since then.

The rates of new commodity and services tax – by 5 % and 18 % – have requested that the Central Council of Taxes and Indirect Customs have requested the field formations to monitor the prices of 54 elements over the next six months to ensure that the commodity and services tax rate discounts.

These include daily foodstuffs such as butter, cheese, ghee, shampoo, toilet soap, face powder and color. Medical and health items such as contact lenses, medicines, medicines, medicines, diagnostic tools, electronics such as air conditioners, dishwashers, TV groups as well as cement. The first report is expected to be presented today on September 30.

Most of the major manufacturers, ranging from car makers to these cases of consumer for manufacturing and FMCG products, have already announced a price review after discounts in the commodity tax rate and services that are also expected to enhance the demand for consumers. Some FMCG manufacturers have also announced an increase in the gramage of goods to pass the price reduction for consumers.

Unlike 2017, when there was a legal ruling on anti -monitoring, the government chose not to create a monitoring anti -monitoring authority as part of the average reduction exercise under GST 2.0. However, the Ministry of Consumer Affairs enabled GST to the national consumer aid line.

The Minister of Consumer Affairs, Nadihi Khaar, said on September 29 that the auxiliary line had received 3000 complaints related to the authority of goods and services tax since the implementation of reduced taxes, which are sent to CBIC for more procedures.
