Tax Compliances
Preparation and filing of various statutory returns and documents with the revenue authorities periodically is a requirement of all business entities. A plethora of paper work is involved in filing numerous tax returns on quarterly, half - yearly and yearly basis. It is always a very complicated and lengthy process to be complied with punctually and regularly. Failure of compliance attracts heavy penalties and even prosecution in certain cases. We help the business entity in preparation and submitting of all requisite returns with the government.

Tax Representation
The Income tax department continuously by adopting certain methods, which vary from year to year, picks up certain Income tax returns for detailed scrutiny. The scrutiny generally involves preparation and submission of detailed documents and information. It also entails the skills of the person representing the case so that tall information is provided in such a manner to the Assessing Officer that there is no cause for any additions. The tax representative, therefore, has to be a very knowledgeable, experienced and an eloquent counsel to be able to derive full justice from the revenue authorities lest the client should face any harassment or undue loss. The representation is also done after the first assessment stage, before the Commissioner (Appeals) or the Income Tax Tribunal. Needless to say representations before higher authorities needs more skills, which we at Anubha & Raman possess.

Indirect tax Consultancy
Goods and service Tax:
GST is known as the Goods and Services Tax. It is an indirect tax which has replaced many indirect taxes in India such as the excise duty, VAT, services tax, etc. The Goods and Service Tax Act was passed in the Parliament on 29th March 2017 and came into effect on 1st July 2017.

In the earlier indirect tax regime, there were many indirect taxes levied by both the state and the centre. States mainly collected taxes in the form of Value Added Tax (VAT). Every state had a different set of rules and regulations.

Inter-state sale of goods was taxed by the centre. CST (Central State Tax) was applicable in case of inter-state sale of goods. The indirect taxes such as the entertainment tax, octroi and local tax were levied together by state and centre. These led to a lot of overlapping of taxes levied by both the state and the centre.

For example, when goods were manufactured and sold, excise duty was charged by the centre. Over and above the excise duty, VAT was also charged by the state. It led to a tax on tax effect, also known as the cascading effect of taxes.

The following is the list of indirect taxes in the pre-GST regime:

• Central Excise Duty
• Duties of Excise
• Additional Duties of Excise
• Additional Duties of Customs
• Special Additional Duty of Customs
• Cess
• State VAT
• Central Sales Tax
• Purchase Tax
• Luxury Tax
• Entertainment Tax
• Entry Tax
• Taxes on advertisements
• Taxes on lotteries, betting, and gambling

CGST, SGST, and IGST have replaced all the above taxes.

In the GST Regime, businesses whose turnover exceeds Rs. 40 lakhs* (Rs 10 lakhs for NE and hill states) is required to register as a normal taxable person. This process of registration is called GST registration.

For certain businesses, registration under GST is mandatory. If the organization carries on business without registering under GST, it will be an offence under GST and heavy penalties will apply.

GST registration usually takes between 2-6 working days. We’ll help you to register for GST in 3 easy steps.

*CBIC has notified the increase in threshold turnover from Rs 20 lakhs to Rs 40 lakhs. The notification will come into effect from 1st April 2019.
