The revenue department today started a new twitter handle to answer industry queries related to the new indirect tax regime.
Traders and industry can ask questions on the twitter handle ‘@askGST_GoI’ and officials from Central Board of Excise and Customs (CBEC) will answer them.
The GST Council, headed by Union Finance Minister and comprising state counterparts, had earlier this month decided on fitment of over 1,200 commodities and 500 services in various tax slabs.
They have been classified in four tier slab — 5, 12, 18 and 28 per cent.
Further, the council has approved a set of seven of Goods and Services Tax (GST) rules and few more would be cleared in the next meeting on June 3.
The GST will unify 16 different levies and transform India into a single market for seamless movement of goods and services. Government plans to roll out GST from July 1.
