VARIOUS FORMSOF NA 55

codes should be used depending upon the type of capital gain.

cost of acquisition under various sub categories of CG leads to

mentioned which is necessary for computation of interest under

are used for permissible adjustment of loss of one head of income against
another head of income.

be entered in CYLA (Current Year Loss Adjustment), BFLA (Brought
forward Loss Adjustment), & CFL (Carry Forward Loss).

Chapter VI A
1. In case of ITR 1 and ITR 4, the deduction amount claimed should be filled
in Income details. For other ITRs deductions where separate schedules
56 – SHNA DELHI UNIVERSITY SERIES
are required, the same should be filled without fail, for example, 80G, 80
IA, 80-IB, etc. Deductionswillnotbe allowed if specific schedules are not
filled.
2. All deductions have specific criteria and limits for claims. In the present
utility a user enterable field for claiming deduction has been mentioned
and correspondingly System Value for deduction claimed is also
mentioned for the benefit of the assessee.
3. The sum of all deductions cannot exceed the total income.
4. Deduction cannot be claimed against income chargeable to special rate
tax.

Schedule TDS and TCS. A major reason for difference in refund amount
during processing is that the details of tax payment or TDS do not match with
the data available with the Department. The critical checkpoints are as under:
1. Tax deduction Account Number (TAN) of the Employer/Deductor is the
unique number for matching TDS claims as reported by the Employer/
Deductor. The TAN is mentioned on the Form 16 given by the Employer
or on the Form 16A given by the Deductor. In case the TAN details do
not match, TDS credit will not be allowed.
2. Where the TAN entered is valid but the Employer/Deductor does not
report the exact TDS details to the Department, especially the taxpayer
Permanent Account Number (PAN), and then TDS cannot be matched.
Therefore it is advised to check Form 26AS for the amount which has
been deposited by persons deducting tax on behalf of the taxpayer. If any
mismatch exists, the taxpayer should bring it to the notice of persons
deducting tax so that they can act accordingly.
3. TDS on salary should be claimed only in schedule TDS Salary (ITR1) or
TDS1 (ITR 2-3).
4. TDS on income other than salary should be claimed only in TDS on
income other than salary (ITR 1) or TDS 2(ITR 2-3).
5. Clairning of TCS claims in TDS schedules and vice versa will lead to
mismatching, which results in excess demand or lower refund. The claim
of TDS amount should be made in “TDS deducted" as well as “TDS
Claimed for the year” column in schedules TDS2 & TCS.
6. TDS claims should match with Form 26AS.
Schedule IT
1. Dates of deposits should be entered in DD/MM/YYYY format and not in
any other format. Exact amount paid as per Challan should be claimed in
return without any rounding off.
2. Individual payments should be separately claimed. Clubbing of multiple
challans or entering consolidated payments will lead to mismatch.
3. In case of Tax payments of Advance tax or Self-Assessment tax, the PAN
used to submit the tax Challan to the bank should be the same as the
PAN used to submit the return. Without a valid PAN the tax payment
VARIOUS FORMS OF ITA 57
received from the bank would be in suspense and cannot be matched
with tax payment claim as entered in the return.
4. While making the tax payment at the Bank, no mistake should be made
in the challan.
5. The Challan Identification Number (CIN) is the combination of BSR code
(any bank branch's unique 7 digit identification number issued by RBI),
date of deposit of challan (DD-MM-YY), and the running serial number
of the Challan, as is mentioned by the Bank while accepting tax payment
on its seal. In case this is not clearly legible, the Bank can be requested to
provide correct details. This must be entered correctly in the return while
claiming credit
Reasons for difference in calculation of Tax or Interest under 234A, 234B or
234C and Interest on Refund:
• Mistakes in computation of Income as mentioned above leading to an
increase in Income.
• Mistake in entering data or Income chargeable to tax at special rates such
as STCG on sale of shares, LTCG where indexation benefit is claimed,
winnings from lottery.
Incorrectly computing special rates of tax.
• Mistakes in entering data or leaving blank, important fields relevant for
computation of tax such as date of birth (relevant for senior citizens) or
gender (relevant for female taxpayers), resident or non-resident, status
(relevant in case of HUF).
• In case of any shortfall of tax payment either due to non-payment or due
to non-matching of the tax payment or TDS, interest may be charged.
• Typically, interest till the date of processing under 234A is charged if the
return is filed beyond due date, interest under 234B is charged for
shortfall in payment of advance tax and interest under 234C is charged
for deferment of advance tax.
• Interest under 234C is also charged in case advance tax on account of
STCG under 111A, LTCG or Winnings from lotteries is not paid,
beginning from the next quarter from the quarter in which the income is
earned.
• Details of quarter wise breakup of STCG, LTCG and Winnings from
Lottery as mentioned in Schedule SI after adjustment of Losses and
adjustment of basic exemption threshold, if applicable, are used for
calculation of advance tax liability and interest under 234C.
Reasons for mistakes in Credit for tax payments or TDS:
• A major reason for difference in refund amount during processing is that
the details of tax payment or TDS do not match with the data available
with the Department. The critical checkpoints are as under:
Corresponding deduction of tax (TDS) on salary by all Employers should
be correctly entered in Schedule TDS1 in ITR1 or Schedule TDS 1 for
ITR 2.
58 SHIVA DELHIUNIVERSITY SERIES
• TDS on salary should be entered in Schedule TDS1 only and TDS on
other Income should be entered in Schedule TDS 2 only.
• Tax deduction Account Number (TAN) of the Employer/Deductor is the
unique identifier for matching 'TDS claims made against TDS reported by
Employer/Deductor. The TAN number is mentioned on the Form 16
given by the Employer or on the Form 16A given by the Deductor. In
case the TAN of the Employer/Deductor is not correctly mentioned, no
matching is possible and TDS credit will not be given.
• If the TAN has been correctly entered but the Employer/Deductor does
not report the same TDS details to the Department, especially the
taxpayer Permanent Account Number (PAN), then also the TDS cannot
be matched. Therefore it is advised to check Form 26AS for the amount
which has already been deposited by persons deducting tax on behalf of
the taxpayer. Thereafter, the taxpayer should bring this fact in the notice
of persons deducting tax so that they can act accordingly.
• In case of Tax payments of Advance tax or Self-Assessment tax, the PAN
used to submit the tax challan to the bank should be the same as the PAN
used to submit the return. Without a valid PAN the tax payment received
from the bank would be in suspense and cannot be matched with tax
payment claim as entered in the return.
• While making the tax payment at the Bank, NO MISTAKE should be
made in the challan while entering the PAN, Name, Major head (20 or
21), Assessment Year, Type of tax payment {advance tax (code 100), Self
Assessment tax (code 300)}, tax applicable (Income tax other than
companies).
.
Any tax payment made under code 400 corresponding to 'Tax on regular
Assessment cannot be used for matching and accordingly credit cannot
be given against advance tax or self-assessment tax claims.
• The Challan Identification Number (CIN) is the combination of BSR code
(any bank branch's unique 7 digit identification number issued by RBI),
date of deposit of challan (DD-MM-YY), and the running serial number
of the challan, as is mentioned by the Bank while accepting tax payment
on its seal. In case this is not clearly legible, the Bank can be requested to
provide correct details. This must be entered correctly in the return while
claiming credit
Miscellaneous mistakes:
• Mistakes in address, etc. do not affect processing but cause miss-delivery
or non-delivery of communication or in case of Bank Account Number
error cause rejection of refund credit to taxpayer account. The following
points may be noted:
• Address should be correctly filled with correct city, state and PINCODE
for faster and accurate delivery of communication from the Department.
• For faster credit of Income Tax refunds, correct bank account number and
IFSC code in the return should be mentioned. In case of any mistake in
VARIOUS FORMS OF ITA - 59
IFSC code or Bank Account number, the refund will not be credited, and
a cancelled cheque showing correct particulars would be required to be
submitted to CPC for correction in bank account number or IFS code.
• Do not Copy/Cut/Paste the data in the utility. It may lead to calculation
errors.
• In case of Refunds below 3100, no refund is issued and if Demand is
below 100, it need not be paid.
How to rectify the mistake and to get the correct refund:
Mistakes in the ITR due to any of the reasons may be corrected by submitting
a rectification form. Some basic information is provided below:
The procedure for rectification and correction of mistakes is available in
HELP on the e-Filing portal.
• In case of any difference in Date of Birth or Gender in the Department
records or in case of any need to correct the data, it may be corrected by
submitting aPAN Change Request Form (quoting the existing PAN) with
correct details and providing relevant documents at any TIN facilitation
centre.

• In case of any mistake in IFSC code or Bank Account number, please


raise a request after logging in to e-Filing application under ‘My Account
→ Refund Re-issue requesť:
• In case the charging of excess tax and interest is only because of non
matching of tax payment or TDS, upon correction of the details by
taxpayer or employer/Deductor, the excess tax, and interest will be
automatically reduced or eliminated.

CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
OF GST

Introduction of basic concept of GST.


Q. 1. Discuss the rationale of GST.
Ans. Rationale of GST:
(i) GST is a value added tax levied on manufacture, sale and consumption
of goods and services. GST offers comprehensive and continuous chain
of tax credits from the producer's point/service provider's point upto the
retailer's level/consumer's level thereby taxing only the value added at
each stage of supply chain.
(ii) The supplier at each stage is permitted to avail credit of GST paid on the
purchase of goods and/or services and can set off this credit against the
GST payable on the supply of goods and services to be made by him.
Thus, only the final consumer bears the GST charged by the last supplier
in the supply chain, with set-off benefits at all the previous stages.
(iii) Since, only the value added at each stage is taxed under GST, there is no
tax on tax or cascading of taxes under GST system. GST does not
differentiate between goods and services and thus, the two are taxed at a
single rate.
Cascading tax effect is also termed as “tax on tax”. This effect occurs when a
good is taxed on every stage of production. Such a good is taxed till it is finally
sold to the consumer. This means each succeeding transfer of a good is taxed
inclusive of the taxes charged on the preceding transfer. As a result, the final
consumer bears the burden of the multiple taxes imposed on every stage of
production. Such a situation leads to inflationary prices.
Out Tax Liability of CGST, SGST, UTGST, IGST
Q. 2. Explain briefly the structure of GST.
Ans. Structure of GST:
1. Dual GST. India has adopted a dual GST which is imposed concurrently by
the Centre and States, i.e., Centre and States simultaneously tax goods and
services. Centre has power to tax intra-state sales & States are empowered to

93
94 I SHNDAS DELHI UNIVERSITY SERIES
tax services. GST extends to whole of India including the State of Jammu and
Kashmir.
2. CGST/SGST/UTGST/IGST. GST is a destination based tax applicable on all
transactions involving supply of goods and services for a consideration subject to
exceptions thereof. GST in India comprises of:
(1) Central Goods and Service Tax (CGST) – levied and collected by Central
Government
(ii) State Goods and Service Tax (SGST) – levied and collected by the State
Governments or Union Territories with State Legislatures, and
(iii) Union Territory Goods and Service Tax (UTGST) – levied and collected
by Union Territories without State Legislatures, on intra-state supplies of
taxable goods and/or services.
(iv) Integrated Goods and Service Tax (IGST) – levied on Inter-state supplies
of taxable goods and/or services. IGST is approximately the sum total of
CGST and SGST/UTGST and is levied by Centre on all inter-state
supplies.
3. Legislative Framework. There is single legislation - CGST Act, 2017 for
levying CGST. Similarly, Union Territories without state legislatures (Andaman
and Nicobar Islands, Lakshadweep, Dadra and Nagar Haveli, Daman and Diu
and Chandigarh) are governed by UTGST Act, 2017 for levying UTGST. States
and Union territories with their own legislatures [Delhi and Puducherry) have
their own GST legislation for levying SGST.
Though there are multiple SGST legislations, the basic features of law, such as
chargeability, definition of taxable event and taxable person, classification and
valuation of goods and services, procedure for collection and levy of tax and the
like are uniform in all the SGST legislations, as far as feasible. This is necessary to
preserve the essence of dual GST.
4. Classification of Goods and Services. HSN (Harmonised System of
Nomenclature) code is used for classifying the goods under the GST. A new
Scheme of Classification of Services has been devised wherein the services of
various descriptions have been classified under various sections, headings and
groups. Each group consists of various Service Codes (Tariff). Chapters referred
are the Chapters of the First Schedule to the Customs Tariff Act, 1975.
5. Composition Scheme. In GST regime, tax (i.e., CGST and SGST/UTGST for
intra-state supplies and IGST for inter-state supplies) is payable by every taxable
person and in this regard provisions have been prescribed in the law.
However, for providing relief to small businesses making intra-state supplies,
a simpler method of paying taxes and accounting thereof is also prescribed,
known as Composition Levy.
State Compensation Mechanism
Q. 3. Write a short note on State compensation mechanism under GST.
Ans. The Goods and Services Tax (Compensation to States) Bill, 2017 was
introduced in Lok Sabha on March 27, 2017. The Bill provides for compensation
to states for any loss in revenue due to the implementation of GST.
Compensation will be provided to a state for a period of five years from
the date on which the state brings its State GST Act into force.
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK OF GST 95
• For the purpose of calculating the compensation amount in any financial
year, year 2015-16 is taken as the base year, from which revenue will be
projected. The growth rate of revenue for a state during the five-year
period is assumed to be 14% per annum.
• The base year tax revenue shall consist of the state's tax revenues from:
(i) State Value Added Tax (VAT), (ii) Central Sales Tax,
(iii) Entry Tax, Octroi, Local Body Tax, (iv) Taxes on Luxuries,
(v) Taxes on Advertisements, etc.
However, any revenue among these taxes arising related to supply of -
(1) alcohol for human consumption, and
(ii) certain petroleum products
will not be accounted as part of the base year revenue.
• The compensation payable to a state has to be provisionally calculated
and released at the end of every two months. Further, an annual
calculation of the total revenue will be undertaken, which will be audited
by the Comptroller and Auditor General of India.
• GST Compensation Cess may be levied on the supply of certain goods
and services, as recommended by the GST Council. The receipts from the
cess will be deposited to GST Compensation Fund. The receipts will be
used for compensating states for any loss due to the implementation of
GST.
The cess will be capped at:
(i) 135% for Pan masala,
(ii) 400 per tonne for Coal,
(iii) *4,170 + 290% per 1,000 sticks of Tobacco, and
(iv) 15% for all other goods and services including motor cars and
aerated water.
Any unutilised money in the Compensation Fund at the end of the
.

compensation period will be distributed in the following manner:


(i) 50% of the fund to be shared between the states in proportion to
revenues of the states, and
(ii) the remaining 50% will be part of the centre's divisible pool of taxes.
GST Network
Q. 4. What is GST Network?
Ans. GSTN stands for Goods and Services Tax Network. It is a not-for-profit
company registered under Section 8 of the Companies Act, established
primarily to assist the rollout and implementation of GST and to act as the nodal
agency to provide assistance in terms of IT infrastructure and services to the
Central Government, State Governments, the tax payers and the general public.
In essence, it acts as a common interface between the government, tax payers,
accounting authorities and the Banking Network. It thereby integrates multiple
tax department websites, bringing all the tax administrations (centre, state and
union territories) to the same level of IT maturity, with uniform formats and
interfaces for taxpayers and other external stakeholders.
The Goods and Service Tax Network (or GSTN) is a non-profit, non
government organization. It will manage the entire IT system of the GST portal,
96 SHIV DAS DELHIUNIVERSITY SERIES
which is the mother database for everything under GST. This portal is used by
the government to track every financial transaction, and will provides tax-payers
with all services -- from registration to filing taxes and maintaining all tax details.
Structure of GSTN:
Private players own 51% share in the GSTN and the rest is owned by the
Government. The authorized capital of the GSTN is 10 crore (US $1.6 million), of
which 49% of the shares are divided equally between the Central and State
governments, and the remaining is with private banks.
The GSTN has also been approved for a non-recurring grant of 1315
crores. The contract for developing this vast technological backend was
awarded to Infosys in September 2015.
The GSTN is chaired by Mr. Navin Kumar, an Indian Administrative Service
servant (1975 batch), who served in many senior positions with the Government
of Bihar, and the Central Government.
Functions of GST Network (GSTN):
(i) Facilitates registration
(ir) Computation of IGST and settlement
(iii) Files tax returns and submit to central and state authorities
(iv) Integrates banking network with tax payment details
(v) Analyses tax payer's profile
(vi) Manages computation engine of input tax credit
(vii) Submits MIS reports to governments
Input Tax Credit Utilization
Q. 5. State the eligibility and conditions for taking input tax credit
Ans. Eligibility and conditions for taking input tax credit (Section 16):
(i) All Registered Persons shall take credit of input tax admissible as per the
terms and conditions specified in Section 49 on all goods and supplies
or both used, intended to be used in the course or furtherance of his

Furnish such detail in Form GSTR-2]
(ii) A Registered person can claim credit only if he
possesess Invoice or Debit note;
• received the goods or services;
• tax charged on such supply has been paid to Government either in
cash or through credit utilization; and
person has filed the Return u/s 39.
)
(iii Where the goods are received in instalments or lots, ITC shall be
available at the time of receiving of final instalment or lot.
(iv) Recipient shall make the payment to the supplier of goods or services
(except tax payable under reverse charge) along with tax payable within 180

p)
100 SHIV DAS DELHI UNIVERSITY SERIES
Ans. Composition Scheme under GST is a relief mechanism, especially for
small tax payers, wherein they can not only have comparatively less tedious
compliance practices to deal with, but also pay GST at a lower, fixed
composition tax rate on their turnover.
Section 10 of the CGST Act, 2017 provides for composition levy to such
persons. Such person means whose turnover is below a certain limit.
Composition Scheme is a simple and easy scheme under GST because of taxable
persons who opt for composition scheme are not required to maintain detailed
records and filing of detailed returns.
Who can opt for Composition Scheme. As per Section 10(1) of CGST Act,
2017, A registered person whose aggregate turnover in the previous financial
year did not exceed 1.5 crore and 75 lakh in case of special states
(Uttarakhand, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim, Tripura and
Arunachal Pradesh).
Aggregate Turnover. As per Section 2(6) of CGST Act 2017, "Aggregate 1

Turnover” means the aggregate value of all taxable supplies (excluding the value
of inward supplies on which tax is payable on reverse charge basis), exempt supplies,
/
export of goods or services or both and interstate supplies of persons having the
same PAN to be computed on all India basis but excludes (CGST, SGST, UTT,
IGST, CESS).

by the Government on the recommendation of the GST council
(Manufacturer of ice cream, pan masala, or tobacco).
e) Where more than one registered person is having the same Permanent
(

Account Number (PAN) issued under the Income tax Act, 1961, the
registered person shall not be eligible to opt for the composition scheme
unless all such registered persons are eligible under composition scheme
and opt to pay tax under the scheme.
Casual Taxable Person or a Non-resident Taxable Person.
(8) A taxable person is engaged in the supply of services. (other than restaurant
and outdoor catering services). However, As per 32nd GST Council Meeting
held on 10th Jan 2019, Service Providers can opt into the Composition Tax
Scheme, and the Government has set the threshold turnover for service
providers at 350 Lakh to be eligible for this scheme. Also, as per the CGST
(Amendment) Act, 2018, a composition dealer can also supply services to
an extent of 10% of turnover, or $5 Lakh, whichever is higher. This
amendment is applicable from the 1st of February, 2019.

Q. 1. What is the difference between e-filing and regular filing of returns?
What is the process of e-filing of Income Tax Return? 12.5

Ans. E-filing, as opposed to the manual/regular filing, helps you to file your
returns online through the Income Tax department's website. It ensures an easier
and hassle-free experience. Regular/Manual filing, on the other hand, is a
traditional process of filing the tax return in person, in which a tax payer must
submit his/her documents to the Centralized Processing Centre (CPC) office,
Bangalore.

E-FILING-2020 (MAY) - 125
Relevance of Form 16 and Form 26AS is as follows:
Form 16: Form 16 is the total of the amount (including basic salary and other
allowances) paid to the employee and the taxes deducted in a financial year. The
form serves as a proof that tax was deposited by the employer to the Income Tax
(17) department. It can be noted that if an employer has not deducted any TDS,
then Form 16 might not be issued.
Form 16 Part A: The Part A Form 16 contains a summary of tax deducted
from the income and deposited to the Income Tax Department as per quarterly
TDS return filed by the employer.
Form 16 Part B: The Part B of Form 16 has the detail of salary paid during a
financial year. The Form mentions the break-up of the salary, deduction claimed,
total taxable income and tax deducted on such income.
Form 26AS: Form 26AS is an annual statement maintained under Rule ^31AB'
of the Income Tax Act disclosing the details of tax credit in a taxpayer's account
as per database of Income tax department. This credit will cover TDS, TCS and
tax paid by taxpayer in the form of advance tax, self-assessment tax etc.
Therefore, it can be concluded that Form 16 isaaTDS certificate (on salary) and
Form 26AS contains details about the tax that has been deducted/deposited with
tax department on behalf of taxpayer by any deductor.
Q. 3. What is the concept of Tax Deducted at Source? What are the different
types of forms for filing TDS Returns? What are the duties of the person
deducting tax at source? 12.5

Ans. Tax Deduction at Source: According to Income Tax Act, there are some
specified payments against which tax is to be deducted at the time of credit of
such income to the account of the payee or at the time of payment whichever is
earlier, which is called Tax Deducted at Source. Tax is being deducted by the
person who pays the money at prescribed rates and deposited with the
authorities within stipulated period.
Deductor: The person who deducts the tax.
Deductee: The person whose tax is deducted.
Payer: The person who makes the payment.
Payee: The person to whom payment is made.
Deductor and payer are the same person.
Deductee and payee are the same person.
The purpose of deduction of tax at source is to bring more persons in to the net
of Income tax. The rules for income tax deduction at source have been framed in
such a manner so that tax evasion can be controlled.
However, if the income of any person is not taxable and the tax has been
deducted at source, he can claim the refund against the tax deducted at source
from income tax department after filing the income tax return.
