In the realm of taxation, GST holds a significant position. An acronym for Goods and
Services Tax, GST is a comprehensive indirect tax levied on a country’s supply of goods
and services. This tax structure aims to replace multiple indirect taxes imposed by both
the central and state governments, simplifying the taxation system and fostering a unified
and seamless market across the nation.
To gain a comprehensive understanding of GST, let's explore some key points that provide
an overview of this crucial tax framework:
The primary objective behind implementing GST is to establish a unified tax structure that
replaces indirect taxes such as excise duty, service tax, VAT, and others. Doing so aims to
eliminate cascading or double taxation, streamline the tax system, and ultimately promote
economic growth. The implementation of GST is a significant step towards achieving a
simplified and efficient tax regime in the country.
GST is implemented with different tax rates based on the type of goods and services. The
GST Council, consisting of representatives from the central and state governments,
decides these tax rates. Goods and services are categorized into various tax slabs,
including 0%, 5%, 12%, 18%, and 28%. Additionally, certain goods may attract cess or
additional taxes, ensuring a progressive tax structure that caters to different sectors of the
economy.
One of the notable features of GST is the provision of Input Tax Credit (ITC). This
mechanism allows businesses to claim credit for the taxes paid on inputs or purchases,
which can be offset against the taxes collected on the output or sales. By adopting the ITC
system, GST eliminates the cascading effect of taxes and promotes the free flow of credits
throughout the supply chain. This not only benefits businesses but also contributes to the
overall efficiency of the tax system.
5. Compliance: Registration and Return Filing
Under GST, businesses are required to register and obtain a unique Goods and Services
Tax Identification Number (GSTIN). This registration process ensures that businesses are
accounted for and enables seamless communication between the taxpayers and the tax
authorities. Additionally, businesses must file regular returns that include details of sales,
purchases, and taxes paid. To facilitate compliance, GST has introduced an electronic
platform called the Goods and Services Tax Network (GSTN), which provides online
registration, return filing, and other compliance-related activities.
The implementation of GST brings forth numerous benefits for the economy and
businesses. Some of the key advantages include:

I worked there as a social media intern under the assistance of Yash Rajvanshi.
MY WORK:
As part of my daily work, I delved into extensive research and analysis on various aspects of
Goods and Services Tax. This involved studying its impact on specific industries,
understanding compliance requirements, exploring legal provisions, and examining real-
world case studies. By immersing myself in these areas, I gained valuable insights into the
complex world of GST.
One crucial aspect of GST is ensuring compliance with the established guidelines and
regulations. Through my work, I familiarized myself with the compliance requirements, such
as registration processes, filing returns, and maintaining proper records. It was essential to
stay updated with the latest compliance guidelines to ensure businesses met their obligations.
To gain a holistic perspective, I explored case studies that showcased the real-world
implications of GST compliance. These case studies provided practical examples of how
businesses navigated the challenges and leveraged the opportunities presented by the GST
framework. Analysing these scenarios helped me develop a deeper understanding of the
impact of GST on diverse industries.
I want to thank Yash Rajvanshi to give this opportunity and for helping me throughout my
internship. I had an amazing experience that help me learn a lot.
To start with, interns are provided with a comprehensive understanding of the GST
framework. This involves gaining knowledge about the objectives, structure, and key
components of GST. We learned about tax rates, and the mechanism of the input tax credit,
which plays a vital role in the GST system.
Interns are introduced to the compliance requirements of GST. We familiarize ourselves with
the registration processes, filing of GST returns, and maintaining proper records and
documentation. Adhering to the timelines and guidelines set by the GST authorities is crucial
to ensure compliance and avoid penalties.
A fundamental aspect of the internship is studying the legal provisions and regulations
governing GST. We dive deep into the relevant GST laws, rules, notifications, circulars, and
other statutory provisions. This helps us understand the intricacies and implications of GST
compliance, ensuring that businesses adhere to the necessary guidelines.
Interns gain practical knowledge of GST return filing, a critical aspect of GST compliance.
We learn about the various types of returns, their formats, and the process of preparing and
submitting GST returns. Through hands-on experience, we become proficient in using GST
software or portals for smooth and accurate return filing.
Understanding the concept of input tax credit is crucial for interns. It is important to reconcile
input tax credits with purchases and understand the conditions and restrictions associated with
input tax credit utilization.
Interns are educated about the significance of reconciliation in GST compliance. We learn the
process of reconciling sales and purchase data, matching invoices, and identifying
discrepancies or mismatches in the GST returns. This knowledge equips us with the skills to
rectify such discrepancies efficiently and maintain accurate records.

because making mistakes is fairly frequent and we are not experts.
