Amendment in GST rules
As per the notification of CBIC, the GST rules have been amended. Under this, taxpayers with a turnover of more than Rs 5 crore will have to furnish self-attested resolution details along with annual returns. Now for this certification of CA will not be required.
Thousands of taxpayers will get relief
AMRG & Associates Senior Partner Rajat Mohan said that the government has done away with the requirement of GST audit from professionally qualified Chartered Accountants. Now tax payers will have to submit the annual return and reconciliation details by verifying themselves. He said this would bring relief to thousands of taxpayers on the compliance front, but knowingly or unintentionally, wrong details in the annual return could lead to trouble.
