This book was released on 2016-12-01 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 101st Constitution Amendment Act 2016 on GST is a big leap for the fiscal reforms relating to the Indirect Tax regime in India as it seeks to introduce a single, comprehensive tax that will subsume other indirect taxes on consumption like sales and service taxes, strengthen the nation’s tax institutions, dismantle barriers that exist across States and create a common market. The main objective of the GST Act is to replace the existing multi layered indirect tax regimes instituted by the Union and State Governments and to unify them across the country. It is a comprehensive value added tax on the manufacture, sale and consumption of goods and services, levied and collected on value addition at each stage of sale or purchase of goods or supply of services based on the input tax credit method but without State boundaries. The administrative power generally vests with a single authority to levy tax on goods and services. By amalgamating a large number of Central and State taxes into a single tax, GST would pave the way for a common national market. This volume focuses on the GST Act 2016 and its effects on Indian federal polity. And those who contributed papers are C. P. Chandrasekhar, Chirashree Dasgupta, Girish Kumar R., Gopakumar K., Prabhat Patnaik, Reapan Tikoo

Download or read book Insurance in European VAT written by Marta Papis-Almansa and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2016-11-30 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Insurance constitutes a significant part of the financial services sector and is one of the foundations of modern economy and society. In the design of tax laws, however, whether and how to tax insurance is a complex issue that has become particularly controversial in the area of value-added tax (VAT). In the European Union, as in most of the world, insurance is exempt from VAT, but New Zealand and Australia do not follow this practice. Given that New Zealand’s simple, comprehensive goods and services tax (GST) – called ‘the world’s purest value-added tax’ – and its modified Australian version do not appear to suffer from the shortcomings in efficiency and effectiveness that plague European VAT, a comparison of the two systems is in order. This book is not only the first comparative in-depth study of the treatment of insurance in the two systems, but also the first comprehensive legal research devoted to the treatment of insurance in EU VAT published in English. Among the underlying issues and topics treated by the two systems covered are the following: – who has a right to deduct input VAT in relation to supplies inherent in insurance arrangements and to what extent; – what constitutes a supply of insurance and consideration for such a supply; – what transactions fall within the scope of the VAT Directive’s exemption for insurance; and – drawing a line between insurance and saving. The analysis is grounded in a methodology in which concepts of European VAT are compared with concepts performing the same function in the Australian and New Zealand GST laws. The author concludes with proposals for reform in EU VAT in the light of experience in these two major non-EU countries. Given that it has been proven that exemptions from VAT (such as insurance) cause a significant number of economic distortions and inefficiencies, this study represents a major contribution to a topical debate in European VAT law. It will be welcomed by taxation authorities, interested policymakers, practitioners, and scholars not only in Europe but worldwide.
Download or read book CJEU Recent Developments in Value Added Tax 2022 written by Georg Kofler and published by Linde Verlag GmbH. This book was released on 2024-01-17 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most important and recent judgments of the CJEU Considering the ever-increasing importance of indirect taxation as a source of revenue for governments, the intensifying complexity of the legal framework, and the proliferating number of countries adopting indirect taxation, it is essential to scrutinize how the law is applied in practice. The primary driving force in this area is, undoubtedly, the Court of Justice of the European Union. This book analyses selected topics (e.g., fighting VAT fraud, obligations imposed on digital platforms, taxable person, taxable transactions, place of supply, taxable base and rates, exemptions, and deductions) by examining the most prominent and recent judgments of the Court of Justice of the European Union. Experts from all over the world, not just from academia but also government and judiciary representatives, as well as tax practitioners, have provided their input and helped us compile what is an informative and worthy read for anyone dealing with indirect taxation on a professional basis.

Download or read book A VAT GST Model Convention written by Thomas Ecker and published by IBFD. This book was released on 2013 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the increasing problem of double taxation concerning value added tax (VAT)/goods and services tax (GST) and the resulting constraints to international trade, it is time for the international community to take action. This book analyses the phenomenon of VAT/GST double taxation and possible remedies. VAT/GST treaties would be one of them. But how should one design a VAT/GST treaty? To what extent do existing income tax treaties already apply to VAT/GST? Can income tax treaties simply be extended to VAT/GST or is there a need for a separate, independent VAT/GST treaty? Can the concepts, functioning, and structure of income tax treaties be used for VAT/GST purposes? What are possible alternatives? What should the scope of a VAT/GST treaty be? How can taxing rights be allocated between the parties to a treaty?
