The Commercial Taxes department has categorically stated that “different procedures for different auction centres is inadmissible” since the GST Act has uniform implication throughout the country.
This communication from C Manimohan, Deputy Commissioner (CT), Udhagamandalam, to the Executive Director, Tea Board, MD, Tantea and MD, Tea Serve, was hailed by industry stakeholders. “There is some clarity on the issue,” said a member of the exporting community.
A uniform procedure is proposed to be adopted at all auction centres, the department noted. Tea exporters heaved a sigh of relief on receipt of the communication.
