GST is the tax system of the 21st century
The most important thing is to view it as a historic opportunity. It is the first major economy-related reform of the Constitution that has happened. It is also an opportunity to create a 21st century tax system.
Tax on cement should be brought down
GST is likely to be introduced from April 1, 2017. Implementation of GST would have huge impact on Corporate India, including the infrastructure industry.
The impact assessment is dependent on various factors inter alia rate of tax, threshold limits, etc.
GST implementation will ensure seamless credit availability
The most crucial tax reform since Independence, GST aims to iron out a multilayered indirect tax system and usher in a uniform tax structure. This development augurs well for the infrastructure sector.
GST… What´s in it for infra?
India´s ambitious infrastructure development plans hinge largely upon a successful transition from the current multiple taxes regime to the new uniform taxation code of the Goods and Services Tax (GST). Is the industry ready to meet the April 1, 2017 deadline? We do a status check...
Many players have not yet started serious efforts to gear up for GST
The infrastructure industry has to gear up for the GST implementation considering significant changes in the proposed tax structure for this sector.

Clearing the Tax Clutter
India has a unique indirect tax landscape for the infrastructure sector. While the sector enjoys a plethora of concessions and exemptions, the very nature of the contracting structure is troubled with a large amount of complexities, more so on the EPC contracting side.
Most complex tax regime by far
The macroeconomic aspects of GST haven´t been taken into account. If the government says that it will collect more revenue, then that means that prices will have to rise because it´s an indirect tax. If prices rise, then industrial output would tend to stagnate or decline.
GST may be disruptive for the next two-three years for certain sectors
In general, our view is that GST is going to bring in a lot of efficiencies as far as logistics goes and logistics also has a direct bearing on the cost of some of these raw materials which are going to be core to the development of any infrastructure project.
