GST New Rules: The Government of India has made a lot of changes in the rules of Goods and Services Tax. Under this, the Input Service Distributor System is going to be implemented from 1 April 2025. The main objective of this system is to ensure the correct distribution of tax revenue among the states. With its help, the state governments will collect the appropriate amount of tax on the shared services being provided at one place.
The Central GST Act has been amended under the Finance Act of 2024 to implement the ISD mechanism. This mechanism facilitates businesses that operate in multiple states. Under this, businesses can centralize the invoices of common input services at one of their headquarters. This makes it possible to distribute input tax credit equally among the branches that use shared services.
Profit of Input Tax Credit
Input tax credit is the tax that businesses pay on their purchases. It can be deducted from the output tax, thereby reducing the total GST liability of the business. Under the new rules, it will be mandatory to use the ISD system so that ITC can be distributed correctly.
What are the new rules
Earlier, businessmen had two options to allocate common ITC to their other GST registrations. The two options were ISD mechanism or cross-charge method, but now from April 1, 2025, ITC will not be given for the recipient location if ISD is not used. If ITC is distributed incorrectly, the tax authority recovers the amount along with interest. Along with this, a penalty will also be imposed for irregular distribution, which will be more than the amount of ITC or Rs 10,000.
GST system
It is believed that this change is another big step towards making the GST system more organized. The ISD system will not only distribute tax revenue among the states but will also help businesses manage their tax liabilities better. This move will prove to be very good for curbing tax evasion and bringing transparency in the system.
