- While for the sales tax, the concept is
identical, but if no specific exemption is there,
all of the goods are considered to be taxable. As
compared to the current sales and service tax
arrangement, brighter chances are there that the
proposed scheme will grab a wider tax base.

important feature of the Goods and Services Tax
plans is that it provides a group registration
facility for reinforcing the GST returns. It
