GST Cashback On Payment Done Via BHIM, RuPay To Be Tested
New Delhi: States will roll out on pilot basis incentives for digital transactions through RuPay card and BHIM app under the GST, Finance Minister Piyush Goyal said today. The GST Council, chaired by Goyal, in its meeting here today also decided to set up a Group of Ministers (GoM) under Minister of State of Finance Shiv Pratap Shukla to look into the issues of the MSME sector. Simultaneously, the law and procedure related issues for the sector would be looked into by the law committee of Centre and state tax officers, while tax rate related issues would be looked after by the Fitment Committee of tax officers.
पिछले 13 महीनों में MSME सैक्टर के प्रति GST काउंसिल की संवेदना रही है, और इस सैक्टर को राहत देने के लिये प्रयास किया है, GST को सरल बनाने के लिये 13 महीनों से काउंसिल लगातार प्रयत्न कर रही है : @PiyushGoyal
