Enforcement Directorate, who recently carried out searches in 100 locations
related to this case, that too with limited staff. It is on record that the
agency is functioning with less than 50% of the approved strength. The agency
cannot be & should not be blamed for any shortcomings, as the expectations
of our countrymen are too high – it is as if the people believe that they can
achieve it with a magical wand. Blame can be squarely put on those who are in

more thousands in Superintendents & Inspector level, who form the backbone

order of 68<sup>th</sup> Batch of Group Officers was issued on 01.12.2017 by
the Board as Assistant Commissioner. The probationers have been relieved with
directions to report to the respective CC’s on or before 11.12.2017. All the 157 Officers are designated as
Assistant Commissioners in the said Order. However, on 02.12.2017, DG, NACIN
has issued an instruction that “Board has decided that the probationers will
not be assigned an independent charge as Assistant Commissioner till the end of
Apr-2018 since all of the OTs (probationers) this year, have been posted to
only GST & CX formations they are to
be assigned functional assignment of sub-ordinate officers
(Inspector/Superintendent) from Dec 2017 to Apr 2018 with the designation AC
(OT) and from May 2018 as AC with independent charge”. I<b><span style="color: red;">n the backdrop, in
early 80’s the probationers were posted for 6 months as Sr. Superintendents and
thereafter as AC. During that period from Administration to Field Formations,
from all type of controls as prevailed during that time that is SRP, RBC, PBC Etc.,
thereafter they were given independent postings. Golden days are gone as well
as the pattern of practice training and humane approach, humbleness are missing
as on date. Many of the officers have an allergy to designate or call as
Inspector except using their service for protocol purposes till today which has
no relevance whether to wear uniform or not in the present GST regime. In
police, in executive cadre, the designation of Inspector has relevance as even
their top most post is designated as Inspector General. The present scenario
for eg. in Mumbai, many of the Commissionerates do not have their own place
anyhow in a squeezed condition and reporting day to day functioning. Seniors up
to JC’s have place but below AC to Inspector, are on musical chairs and
cubicles. If this is the situation of Mumbai, rest of the places, situation are
more or less similar to the junior level officers. <o:p></o:p></span></b></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> In
the GST regime, there is no role assignment to Superintendent as well as Inspector,
although AIO are installed, but inauguration is expected regarding its capacity
and capability to cater and sustain the present needs. However, since July, assessees
are complaining about GSTN and the wrath is being faced by the Inspector and
Superintendent as they are in the ground level. Now, the situation in GSTN has
been improved, but, returns from Aug 2017 onwards are not accepting for
uploading onto the GSTN. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> The stagnation in Inspector and
Superintendent Cadre and step motherly treatment by its own administrations is
already in the demoralizing mode and the present allocations where the
jurisdiction base of GST and its existence of its own officers are at stake. The
Group A Officers who have joined this Department have a high ambitions but when
they will be in the formations they will come to know the reality and realize
whether they have joined the right Department in the beginning of their career.
<b><span style="color: red;">Our own Board, should have, while passing such instructions, to designate them
to work as sub-ordinate officers i.e., as Inspector & Superintendents, will
definitely be a laughing stock before their own same batch who joined in IAS
& IPS, ITRS, IRS (IT), Etc., it would have been prudent the para 2 of the
said communication should have at least indicated that these officers are to
undergo 6 months in-house training in GST filed formations and thereafter
Independent executive posting will be given. Hope we should care for the image
of our department and should not demean or have selfish approach like ‘My days
are over, let others set their own days to come’. <o:p></o:p></span></b></span></div>

in one of the exams, in BHU, a question was asked as to, <b>What did Kautilya
think of GST?</b> The said issue was published in the Hindu dated 07.12.2017.
The head of the BHU’s political science department said, ‘Paper setting is done
as per specialization and expertise. It is the responsibility of the expert to set
question’ M N Thakur, who teaches Political science at JNU, said ‘In an exam
that tests students in areas taught, such questions have no place. Whoever set
the paper acted mindlessly’. Everybody is jumping on GST whether it is their

letter dated 05.12.2017 about TRAN 1 data is far from the ground reality and
shows that the reporting officers are not able to convince the authority about
the difficulty faced by the lower level officers that they are sandwiched
between the systems and non-cooperation of the trade.</span></b> As such, the trade is
coming up from the hiccups of GST and continuous contact with the concerned
jurisdictional officers who are at the receiving end from both the sides. We
are not able to improve our systems and the infrastructures i.e., in what
conditions the GST Commissionerates are functioning. <b><span style="color: red;">When citizen Charter specifies
courteous behavior and principle of delivery of services is envisaged, why does
a field officer have to report against a tax-payer who prefers to share his
information only to state officers or against Chartered Accountant who is not
accountable to us or under our control. </span></b><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> <b><span style="color: red;"> We have seen the board headed by
several headstrong personalities who stood with the staff and with the own mechanism.
In this transitions we should act as time demands and the existence of our
department and the dignity of each cadre should not be compromised at any cost.
If, the fate of the Group A is concerned for their career, those who have
joined after 2008, they should be given promotions, postings, deputations at
par with other cadres. The Board belongs to A, B and C. The approach should be
rational and not discriminatory one. If they will show least concern about
Group B and C, then, the huge workforce will not come forward with the same
support and co-operation. The Board should stop giving step motherly treatment
to the lower cadres and adopt an inclusive HR policy. Officers in B & C
cadres are pushing and self motivating themselves to meet the objectives of the
GST law and which should not be stretched beyond tolerance levels. The present
allocation of assessee-base is echoing in each cadre. Don’t give any safe passage
to one cadre think for all. a. On Saturday the 9th December 2017, a meeting of
Board Officials is scheduled by the Revenue Secretary, who will take stock of
GST & GSTN and strengthening of the mechanism and various intricate aspects
(RCM, etc) of GST law. It is hoped Board Officials shall not hesitate to appraise the ground realities and
difficulties faced by the field officers as regards to GST and GSTN and also
appraise working conditions, career progressions and financial crunch where the
essential services for efficient delivery of GST - like telephone, internet
electricity are disconnected due to non-payment of bills upto the level of
Chief Commissioner Offices. This is the nadir of shame, loss of dignity of our
esteemed Board and our own offices are defaulters of payment public utility
before the state machinery. It is a matter of shame forcing our own officers to
defend defaulting actions. </span></b><o:p></o:p></span></div>

recommendation of VIth CPC, Central Civil Service (Revised Pay ) Rules, 2008
was notified giving effect from 01.01.2006. As per the said Revised Pay Rules,
the Inspector who was promoted as Superintendent was placed in the Grade pay of
Rs.5400 in PB-2 w.e.f. 01.01.2006, if he has put in 4 years of regular service
as Superintendent or on the date as and when he completed 4 years, thereafter.
The upgradation of pay scale after 4 years has been termed as Non Functional
Selection Grade (NFSG). The trouble started with the Clarification issued by
DOPT vide letter ref. Dy No. 257/62460/US(D)/2010 dated 21.07.2010
contemplating the benefit of NFSG
granted to the Superintendent (Group-“B”) officers after completion of 4 years
would be treated / viewed as upgradation in terms of para 8.1 of OM dated
19.05.2009 and the same would be offset against Financial Up gradation
under MACPS.It is not out of place to
mention here that CBEC had issued letter F. No. A.23011/29/2010-Ad.IIA dated
20.05.11 in consultation with Deptt. of Expenditure and DOPT, clarifying that
the officers who were granted pre-revised scale of pay of Rs.8000-13500 as
financial upgradation in the promotional hierarchy under ACPS on or before
31.08.2008 be granted grade pay of Rs.5400 in PB-3 as per 6th CPC replacement
pay, and that there would be no effect on grant of ‘Non-functional scale’ in
PB-2 with GP Rs.5400 during 1.01.06 to 31.08.08, as the same is not counted
under ACPS and would not be offset against financial upgradation under the
Scheme. Harmonious reading of CBEC clarification dated 20.05.2011 and
29.09.2009 r/w 02.02.2010, the Inspector who completed 30 years of service was
entitled to the grade pay of Rs.6600/- in PB-3. Despite this factual position,
the department has not allowed the Inspector the grade pay of Rs.6600/- in
PB-3. Therefore, certain officers from time to time approached various judicial
forum and got favourable orders. The Hon’ble Madras High Court in WP No.
19024/2014 in case of Shri R. Chandrasekaran, passed an interim order and
directed the department to consider the case. Accordingly, the CBEC vide letter
F. No.A.23011/25/2015-Ad.IIA dated 26.05.15, after getting opinion of DOPT vide Dy. No.1078183CR15 dated 5.05.15 to
the effect that since Shri R. Chandrasekaran got only one promotion and 2<sup>nd</sup>
ACP in the GP of Rs.5400 PB-3 in his career prior to implementation of MACP
Scheme w.e.f. 1.09.08, he is entitled to the grant of 3<sup>rd</sup> MACP in
the GP of Rs. 6600 under MACP Scheme w.e.f.4.06.2012 on completion of 30 years
of service, implemented the interim order and compliance was filed with the
Hon’ble High Court. However, while passing final order in the said W.P., the
Hon’bleHight Court remitted matterwith a direction to DoPT to considerthe issue

Hon’ble Madras Bench of Central Administrative Tribunal decision in the case of S.Balkrishnan&Ors
in <b>OA No. 280/2012</b> The said order of
Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal, Madras Bench was challenged by the
Department before Hon’ble Madras High Court in <b>Writ Petition no. 11535/2014</b> with M.P No. 1/2014 which was decided
by Hon’ble Madras High Court on <b>16.10.2014</b>
by upholding the order of Hon’ble
Central Administrative Tribunal and dismissed the petition filed by the
Department. The said judgment of Hon’ble High Court of Madras challenged by the
department before the Hon’ble Apex Court vide Special Leave to Appeal (C ) <b>15396 OF 2015</b> wherein the Hon’ble Apex
Court has condoned the delay in filing of SLP by Department and dismissed the
same. Thus the order of Tribunal at Madras and Judgment of Madras High Court
has merged with the order of Hon’ble Apex Court and thereby the order of
Hon’ble Tribunal at Madras attained finality and became a judicial precedent
which is binding on all the Courts of Law

letter dated 20.06.2016 based on the latest advice of DoPT refers provision
contained in para 8.1 of Annexure-I of
OM dated 19<sup>th</sup> May 2009 and FAQ No.16 which indicates that the
non-functional scale in the grade pay of Rs.5400/- in PB-2 is to be treated as
a financial upgradation under MACP Scheme.
Thus, the whole issue revolves around interpretation of aforesaid para
8.1 which does not specifically say to offset the grade pay of Rs.5400/- in
PB-2 before grant of grade of Rs.5400/- in PB-3. The interpretation of DoPT is
not founded on sound footing and legally not sustainable. The Hon’ble High
Court of Madras in W.P. No.11535 of 2014 in the case of Shri S. Balakrishan has
allowed GP of Rs.6600/- in PB-3 on 3rd MACPS. Para-18 of the judgment reads as

on the para 8.1 of Annexure to MACP Scheme which stipulate GP of Rs.5400 in
PB-2 and Rs.5400 in PB-3 as different grade for the purpose of MACP Scheme. The
clarification based on this clause is not proper and legal. Therefore, it can
be concluded that the legitimate benefit is denied with improper and incorrect
clarification. Government one side is issuing instructions after instructions
not to indulge into litigations and resolve the issue amicably in the spirit of
the instructions, circular, policy and norms, but it is unfortunate when it
comes to our cadre, we are constantly deprived, not only functional promotions
but also financial up gradation as envisaged in MACP scheme. On being aggrieved
Individuals from all the corner are approaching CAT and receiving order in their
favor, however the board in or one other pretext denying the rights by issuing
clarifications. We hope sooner or Later the para 8.1 of MAPC scheme needs
amendment so the said issue will be settled forever. </span><o:p></o:p></span></b></div>

<b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">Shifting of CGST
Commissoinerates in respective Jurisdiction</span></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">: The Executive Commissionerate in GST ,Mumbai viz.
Bhiwandi, Palghar, Thane Commissionerates, are not at all looking into this
aspect despite the instructions from Board and PCCO office. In past also on
such issues majority of the HOD/Commissioners are doing only cosmetic work and
junior officers are working in a ‘shifting mode’ since implementation of GST.
Madam, this is our humble request to direct the Executive Commissionerates to
shift in their respective jurisdictions immediately within a given time frame..
Further they may be directed that advertisements for hiring of buildings be
given immediately and acted upon immediately and a status report be called from
them.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

all kind of malpractices are going on and CESA Mumbai has pointed out time to
time and DGHRD was kind to hear our plea and looked into the issue and
rectified the Omissions’/Commissions committed in seniority list. But the sad
story is that the seniority list itself is now like Bamboo tree flower blooms
not even once in decade in CBIC. <b>Since
2006 there is no seniority list at All India level. </b>The last one was for
the period 01.01.1998 to 2006 Jan, issued in 2011 or so.<b> </b>This is in contrary to the DOPT guidelines on the subject<b>. </b>Despite having a full fledged DGHRD
at apex level<b>. We request you madam
that, Seniority should be revised by taking into account ‘N.R.Parmar judgement’
and while redrafting it the clause of ‘Step up’ should also be incorporated.
Recasting of seniority list is not a rocket science and can be done digitally
on excel. DPC may soon be conducted after revising the seniority list.<o:p></o:p></b></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Mumbai
Customs, who organized the Customs Marathon on Sunday 29.10.2017 was a mega
event. The said half-marathon was flagged off by Hon’ble Finance Minister
along-with other dignitaries like the Chief Minister of Maharashtra and other
politicians as well as by our Chairperson, Mrs </span><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">Vanaja N. Sarna accompanied by </span><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Member (P&V),
CBEC. All the senior officers of Central Excise & Customs, Mumbai,
including the newly minted 69<sup>th</sup>Batch IRS Officers participated in
this mega event. Many serving/retired officers of Mumbai and many celebrities
and other civilians were also present. The event was sponsored by many
corporate houses and on that particular day, the New Custom House was so
beautifully decorated & lit, that we are short of words. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">However,
in the banner, logo and posters used in the event, the word GST was conspicuously
missing. It was almost as if Customs was a separate entity and not part of the
CBEC and the new tax regime i.e., GST was the handiwork of Central Excise
(Central Tax i.e., GST). <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">On
28<sup>th</sup> October, 2017, our Chairperson also inaugurated the mega
housing complex having more than 200 flats, which were newly acquired for all
cadres for residential accommodation at Khargar, Navi Mumbai. The delegation of
CESA, Mumbai, was invited and the office bearers attended the function.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">An
appointment, as sought by CESA, Mumbai, was granted by the Hon’ble Chairperson
and Member (P&V), CBEC. The delegation of CESA Mumbai, comprised of General
Secretary, President, all Joint Secretaries and Joint Secretary AIACEGEO
represented and apprised the Chairperson. The delegation submitted a
representation and apprised the various burning issues, like shifting of CGST
Commissionerate offices inside the jurisdictional area, re-casting of the
Superintendents’ All-India seniority list, APAR system, Customs reorganization,
etc. The Board Officials gave a patient hearing and appreciated the cooperation
extended by the officers for smooth roll out of GST and tackling the
transitional problems in a smooth manner. The detailed representation handed
over to the Chairperson & Member (P&V) is annexed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">In
the said meeting the other group of officers were also present. When they presented
their issues, the Chairperson out-rightly dissuaded them from raising any
issues on the basis of any groups or any allegations. Their presence was
thereafter ignored. This was witnessed by the Chief Commissioners,
Commissioners and other senior officers who were present on that fateful day.
It is surprising since last 5 years they were able to raise only one issue
i.e., <b>Control Room Duty,</b> which they are sincerely doing and the
authority is not discontinuing or they do not have the guts to close the said
points according to the change of the times and the taxation system.
Individually they propose the names of Officer for being posted to premier investigative
agencies like ED, DRI, DGCEI, etc.. Sometimes they also request discreetly for
repatriations or any changes when some individuals followed the rule book and
do not fall into their appeasement they become intolerable to them. Less said the
better, because those who are dedicated for the cadre, they work silently
without naming / promoting their individual names or drumming their names for
credit. The meeting was concluded and the delegations, as assured, submitted
another set of representations, specifically raising Mumbai issues (which will
be published later on).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">The
present state of officers posted in the GST Commissionerate is so appalling,
whether posted at Hqrs., Divisions, Audit, Appeals etc., have no proper place
for sitting, facilities, infrastructure, sub-ordinate staff. It pinches further,
when senior officers call the officers from outlying formations to come to Hqrs.
for any work, officers’ move from one corner of the city to another corner, at
their own expense, as many of the Hqrs Offices are located outside the
jurisdictional area, as per the convenience of the senior officers - for ease
of commutation, etc. Even for sending the official tapal, through a contingency
worker or havaldar, the officer has to bear the expenditure, which has now become
a regular & routine affair. Newly promoted senior officers have no guts to
redress even a small issue, but rather threaten them by way of transfer or
putting adverse remarks in the APAR, and consequently names to be included in
the list of officers who are to be considered under Rule 56J. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<b><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">NO DPC:<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<b><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">It is learnt that DPC
would not be held, for promoting Superintendents to AC, against the vacant
posts.</span></b><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">
It was also mentioned before the delegation by the Chairperson and Member (P&V),
that obstacles are being continuously placed by the south unit, either in the
name of N R Parmar or MACP, apparently for their sadistic pleasure. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Promotions from
Commissioner to Pr. Commissioner and Joint/Additional Commissioner to Commissioner on ad-hoc are in the cards and orders
will be issued shortly. But, our ad-hoc promotions are held up in one or other pretext for which a sectarian
group is also responsible.<b><o:p></o:p></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">In the next quarter,
many of the current Chief Commissioners will be attaining superannuation and it
appears that their posts will remain vacant and many of the work at various zonal
levels will come to a stand-still, as no officers, other than those holding
additional charge, will act on issues. They only act as witness, as we have
experienced it in the past. We have seen for want of Chief Commissioners /
Commissioner / Additional Commissioner / JC / Dy. Commissioner are given the
charge of one rank above without any hurdles, but the same criteria is never
adopted to our eligible Superintendents having considerable period of service
who are due for promotion to Assistant Commissioners. Same Board with double approach
: one for us and one for them.<b><o:p></o:p></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<b><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">REGULARIZATION OF
CONTINGENT WORKERS<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">The issue of
contingency workers, for which the senior officers always show their compassion,
but when the time comes to act, even the bare minimum effort is not put in to
send the correct reports to the Board for their regular appointment. There is
hardly any concerted effort for their regularization. Since 1993, Board, at
regular intervals issue several instructions asking about the details so that the
contingent/casual workers can be regularized. But many of the Zones, including
Mumbai, have submitted NIL reports. Authorities spend lakhs of Rupees to engage
counsel for the sake of not paying them the legal wages, thereby defying the
Ministry’s and/or Boards directives. The individuals who are attached to this Department
for more than 2 decades are languishing with a meager amount which is paid to
them now as a contingency worker. Several individuals do not have the capacity
to knock the door of CAT and get a favourable order,& are silently
expecting today or tomorrow ‘<i>Kash unke liye achche din aayenge</i>’. DGHRD has
presently constituted a committee and working hard in this regard. It is hoped that
all the individuals working in all Zones / Directorates will get justice and
benefit from the amnesty. CESA appeals to all the officers to send correct
factual reports and not to hide the things, out of fear and guide such poor
workers, also as a service to humanity if not anything else. The Marine and
Preventive wing is the worst sufferer on this count as the cadre controlling C.
Ex. Authorities are kept in dark by the Marine & Preventive authorities and
on their own they do not act in a timely manner. Without them, we are
handicapped although we are known as supervising officers without any
supporting staff it is they who accept our all commands and fulfill the same in
our day to day office work. They deserve their due and their service may be
regularized if they fulfill the conditions as prescribed by the Board. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Last week a meeting
was held to liquidate the pendency of review of revision pension and family
pension and updation of BHAVISHYA. In several zones the cases of several
Officers are pending,hope before the end of this month, all the cases will be
revised and the retired officers will be benefitted.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">En Number of cases
are pending and there is no initiative being taken for handling legacy issues
in the GST regime & to dispose of the vigilance cases. Several officers, now
retired, are making round after round in the office where they have retired.
However, no efforts are being made to expedite the processing of such cases,
thereby making the life of these retired officers miserable. Similar is the
fate of the officers whose First and Second stage advise are pending - just for
ritual sake to punish or to exonerate them. Now it is high time board has to
act and give a deadline like in the case of pensioners to dispose of all the
vigilance cases.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">In our childhood we
have been taught about unity in the family and society /school and wherever we
may be. But at that stage we have never understood what is the real meaning of Unity,
although we have written several write up while writing essay or précise
writing in our school days not understood at that time now also. Our two
factions are engaged themselves to score on each other who is the best. The
issue of MACP, re-casting of seniority list as per the N R Parmar judgment from
which date is not notified till date by the Board. Several other issues are in
the cupboard as it is. The best can be adjudged by delivery but after the
convention there is no symptom of Achche Din. Hope Unity will prevail and cadre
will prosper. Sooner the better. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<b><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">DISCRIMINATION:<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Customs tactically
& strategically snatched the Customs works carried out by Central Excise
Officers. CESA Mumbai is the only Association who raise their voice in our
favour, no one else. This is the last month maybe and thereafter all the
customs related work will be carried out by Custom Officers. We are designated
as Inspector/Superintendent but nothing will remain in our hand or table to
Inspect or Supervise except working like a watchman before All-In-One Desktop. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Lastly, it is sad to
narrate the struggles & impediments faced by the huge work force of CBEC,
especially those who are in Central Excise, they seem to be at the receiving
end. Neither the Board is taking care of them nor the fraternity representing
forcefully their issues. In the 19<sup>th</sup> Council, the allocation of
assessees was agreed upon- <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_GoBack"></a>10% -50% to Centre and 90%-50% (<i>based on turnover</i>) to
state as well as 4 slabs, highest was 28%. After a long hue and cry, the
government has realized and understood the difficulty at the trade level and
gave lot of relaxation and simplifications in the 23<sup>rd</sup> Council
Meeting which was held on 10.11.2017. We do not know what will be the fate of
ours, after the assessee remains registered for tax compliance and thereafter
allocations to state and centre and what the share the centre will have in
their possession. We claim that we trained them and after the training is over
they take everything from the dish, kept the empty plate in our hand to hold. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">The Government
understood the difficulty faced after GST as reported by various trade and
corporate but we failed to put forth the difficulty of ours as envisaged in the
GST rules and laws. We appreciate the present luminary Chief Commissioner
Central Excise Bangalore Zone Shri Vinod Kumar who is behind every move of our
board in GST realize and felt that no officers is active either in Whatsapp or
Facebook or any representations for any changes in the rules and regulations
and procedures for a better tomorrow for a Departmental Officers. Hope we will
strive to our best for the same to point out the shortcomings or lacunae or
improvement in the GST law. At least in this regard, we all should work united
to strengthen our base for the future.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

ensure reservation in promotions for employees belonging to the Scheduled
Castes and the Scheduled Tribes, the State government on Tuesday tabled the
contentious Karnataka Extension of Consequential Seniority to Government
Servants Promoted on the Basis of Reservation (To the Posts in the Civil
Services of the State) Bill, 2017. There have been serious debates for and
against the Bill in the run-up to the session in Belagavi. Law and

since 1978 — 15% for SCs and 3% for STs. However, the Supreme Court in the B.K.
Pavithra and others vs the Union of India and others civil appeal filed in
2011, struck down reservation in promotions for SC and ST employees. In

government. The report said overall efficiency of administration has not been
affected by extending reservation in promotions to SCs and STs. It recommended
continuation of reservation in promotion within the limits that will not hamper
the overall efficiency of administration. The State government accepted the
report and decided to provide consequential seniority to persons promoted on

<span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">A Bench of Justices
Kurian Joseph and R. Banumathi said clarity is required on the “application of
creamy layer in situations of completing claims within the same races,
communities, groups or parts thereof of SC/ST communities notified by the
President under Articles 341 and 342”. This question on the application of
creamy layer principle in SC/ST quotas comes 11 years after a five-judge
Constitution Bench in the M. Nagaraj judgment of 2006 had decided that creamy
layer should be excluded from the reservations for the Scheduled Castes and
Scheduled Tribes in government jobs. </span></span></div>

Commission and E.V. Chinnaiah cases had confined the creamy layer concept to
the Other Backward Classes section. The two-judge Bench’s order is based on a
batch of petitions for clarity on Article 16 (4), which deals with the State’s
powers for providing for appointments or posts for “any backward class of
citizens”; on Article 16 (4A), which arms the State with power to make
provisions for quota in promotion with consequential seniority to SC/ST
communities; and finally Article 16 (4B) on unfilled reservation vacancies.</span></span></div>

<span style="background: white;">The functionality to fill the claim form was

<span style="background: white;">Revision can be either an increase or decrease of
credit in comparison to the original credit.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; letter-spacing: 0.15pt;">The historic GST is
struggling to stay in step with needs and expectations. The ink was barely dry
on the first draft, when it saw at least 11 amendments, and rates revisions of
nearly 100 items. The decade-old effort towards ‘one nation, one tax’ was to unify
the tax system, but the grim reality is, it repulsed companies, the worst-hit
being SMEs, blew out growth prospects and failed to juice the economy. The
Ministry of Finance, which celebrated GST’s successful rollout, is now sweating
the gory details undertaking several markups and revisions to smooth out its
kinks.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; letter-spacing: 0.15pt;">The good news is, the GST Council is pushing for a quick and painless
debate on the way forward. With inefficiencies tumbling out by the day, the
Council is moving swiftly to keep the chatter low and work with a single-minded
intent to prune its structure. As we speak, the Council is considering lowering
taxes on more products under the 28 per cent slab.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify;">

<div style="background: white; box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; letter-spacing: 0.15pt;">The changeover comes at a critical moment, but forces within the
government seem unhappy with former revenue secretary Hasmukh Adhia calling for
a complete overhaul to ensure the SMEs and common man aren’t burdened.
Officials are also hinting at bringing real estate, petroleum products and
electricity under the GST ambit.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify;">

<div style="background: white; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; letter-spacing: 0.15pt;">Given that India has a
large MSME base, there’s an urgent need to standardise and simplify processes.
This could make the learning curve stretch longer, but is unavoidable. While
GST brought 27 lakh new registered entities into the tax net, just half file
returns. Relaxation from monthly to quarterly filings for SMEs is welcome,
issues involving invoices, delivery challans, and smooth rollout of e-way bill
could further improve compliance.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">The Chairperson of CBEC is making her first visit outside Delhi,
i.e.to Mumbai, tentatively on the 28<sup>th</sup> Oct 2017, (gracing the
Customs Marathon on 29<sup>th</sup> Oct 2017) after ushering in the country’s new
tax regime – the successful rollout of GST. The issues faced by assesses/general
public, with respect to GST, are many and the same are not unknown to her. She
is fortunate in the sense that many outgoing chairman/chairpersons, who were
aspiring that during their tenure the GST will be rolled out, was launched
during her tenure. She will be remembered forever on account of this. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">In our last article, we had mentioned that our senior officers
should be concentrating at the field level to take stock of the ground realities
and to ascertain the factual positions, like the Chairman of the Railway Board,
Shri Lohaniji, when he had paid his visit to Mumbai after the Elphinstone
Stampede. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">

<span style="color: red; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">We hope that, our Chairperson will also behave and act to
dissuade excessive protocol accorded to her at airports, like Shri Lohaniji, thereby
not wasting time, energy & money of the local officers on account of this.
Further she should also visit the ground level formations to understand the
manner of its functioning, whether it is the office at the World Trade Center,
Air India Building, Nav Prabhat Chambers, Churchgate Office etc. and if
possible the executive GST Commissionerate offices, including the Appeal
and Audit Commissionerates. This may enable her to understand the difficulties
faced by the officers and the manner in which these offices are functioning… We
are sure that she will feel immense pride, being the head of Department,
wherein the officers are still putting in their best efforts, in spite of all
the difficulties faced by them, both internal & external.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;">During her hectic schedule in Mumbai, we do not know how our
local Senior officers will present the issue of severe crunch of infrastructure,
problem of GSTN, shortage of Offices in their jurisdiction and other burning issues
faced by us. Many of the Senior officers are about to retire in a few months
and seem to have entered into a state of non-action!! </span></div>

largest seizure and also should be commended for the same. Similarly, the
officer, who through one phone call caused the seizing officer to be transferred
abruptly and did not allow them to continue in the post, whether it was for
cover up or for something else. Definitely, it demoralized the field-staff, but
the Department does not care one bit for those who are ready for action at the
cost of their lives – remember Daya Shankar, Casto Fernandes and others. The
recent Bombay High Court Judgment squashing the orders of the CESTAT and
setting aside the customs order holding Alemao bothers guilty of smuggling gold
as well as fining them, in the infamous gold seizure of the 90s. These two
things - action & inaction by the officers of the Department will go a long
way, either raising the morale of the officers or lowering it. But these two
incidents dented the pride of the Department. Expecting a corrective actions in
both the cases.<o:p></o:p></b></span></div>

Majority of the victims had undertaken fasts and the ladies were adorned in matching
colour sarees and with ornaments, due to the Navratri festive season. Everyone
had ventured from their homes, hoping to come back home safely, but
unfortunately met with untimely deaths. The Railway Administration had no words
to console and pacify the relatives of the victims. Fortunately or
unfortunately, the Hon’ble Union Railway Minister was in town and visited the
KEM Hospital to console those who have been injured in the stampede. Thereafter
he has taken a major safety meeting in Delhi and took stock of his Ministry and

On 01.10.2017, when the Chairman of the Railway Board landed in Mumbai, a
battery of officials, of both the Western and Centre Railway were present to receive
him. On seeing all the senior officers doing protocol, he lost his temper and chastened
them and noted down the names of all those officers, unnecessarily present at
the Airport, for initiating disciplinary action. Thereafter he held a
series of meetings and took many historical steps which is unprecedented. He directed
the senior officers to travel in the trains, that too in sleeper class and take
long journeys, to gain first hand experience of the services and problems
faced by the passengers. The move aims at improving on the amenities being provided
to the passengers by the Railways. The General Manager and DRM will undertake
journey in Sleeper class and 3<sup>rd</sup> A.C coaches to take stock of the
condition of the coaches and its cleanliness. Utmost priority is to be accorded
to passenger safety and the amenities in trains and at stations and urged the
Officers to move out of their luxurious cabins & offices, to avoid unnecessary
protocol duties and improve on their work ethics. Being a Mumbaite, we welcome

senior officials are at the receiving end and those who are in the pivotal
positions are helpless to redress the enormous problems faced by the taxpayers.
We are truthful when we accept that “We were ready but our system may not have
been ready...” but in the perception of the public, it appears deceitful. The
problem faced by the Central Processing Cell, issues reported by the tax
payers which even the GSTN helpdesk are
unable to resolve. Constant extension of deadlines and numerous errors
occurring while filing the TRAN and Regular returns coupled with
non-availability of the facility of revision of returns has added to the
taxpayers problems. Whereas, in the VAT department they are ahead little bit
than us wherein the registrations are being issued at local offices and no
special CPC has been formed. Further, test checking of invoices has also been
taken up by state authorities. We do not know how long our management will
stretch the event to make it robust and assessee friendly. If my seniors,
without waiting for any directions from the top are available in the field,
suo moto, like the Railways, then the time will not be far off, when issues faced
by the officers and assessees of GST, are quickly redressed. </span><b><o:p></o:p></b></span></div>

Officers are abysmal, (<i>least say about the infrastructure</i>) but the expectations are sky high - that they
will deliver as they did during the times when SRP and physical controls were in
existence. Now when everything is automated and the system is handicapped, the staff
has no power to generate or upload anything, except merely watching, like a night-watchman,
waiting for redressal of their issues. It pinches when authorities preach that
the system is brought to curtail human interface and curb Inspector Raj. When
there is no Raj, but our own seniors publicly condemn its own officials, just
to appease the trade. The trade wants that their difficulties are to be addressed
– like not to be penalised for the systems failure which is no fault of theirs.</span></span></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

the moral of the officers at the field level is too low. There is no one to
guide them, to lead them or to redress their grievances, so that they can serve
this Department with dignity and with utmost sincerity. If the senior officials
of the Railway can forego their luxurious cabins and stand-up to improve / provide
for safety amenities, cleanliness, etc., then why not the Members of our Board
and other senior officers, to serve along with the foot-soldiers, on the
economic front.</span></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 150%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

when people were able to file 13 lakh of returns in a single day,” he said. On
October 10, for GSTR 1, a detailed return in which all the outward supplies or
sales are mentioned, there was a “big gap,” Mr. Modi, also the Deputy Chief
Minister of Bihar, said.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">“For the month of July, 52
lakh dealers have filed the returns. But the detailed GSTR 1 has been filed by
only 33 lakh, 43,000 dealers. Only six days are left and I appeal to the
dealers to file the detailed returns for the month of July. Infosys has the
names and numbers of the dealers and SMS will be sent to all the dealers. Local
tax administrators will also contact all the dealers who have not filed their
detailed returns,” he said.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Infosys would send a team of
qualified technicians to coordinate with the State tax administration to speed
up and resolve technology issues, Mr. Modi said. “There are 27 States which
constitute the Model 2 States. Model 1 States, like Karnataka, have developed
their own backend. Model 2 States have had a problem creating the backend. Last
meeting, we requested for developing a software for Model 2 States. There is a
lot of progress here too,” he said. “Earlier, many of the things were done
manually. Now everything is automated. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">So, there is a lot of difference as there
will be no or minimum human intervention. So, initially, there will be some
problems. People who had not earlier worked with technology are facing
problems. We and Infosys are trying to solve these problems.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">The next meeting of the GST
Council, slated for October 6, will decide on the refund of taxes to exporters
and issues being faced by even small traders “90% of revenue is coming only
from four lakh taxpayers. In GSTN, more than 90 lakh of taxpayers are
registered.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="line-height: 21.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">The GST was India’s
second tryst with destiny and introduced with the great hope that it would help
India achieve economic greatness. But with each passing week, the new complex
tax system is getting increasingly difficult to implement. Seventy years ago, India
was ill prepared for a hastily imposed independence and the birth of two
nations. The consequence was the tragedy of Partition. The country was equally
ill prepared for the GST which came in the wake of extensive collateral damage
inflicted by demonetisation. The consequence has been a serious setback to
several sectors of the economy.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 21.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 21pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; outline: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">If the GST has to be made “good and simple”
it is suggested that the following “not-to-do list” be adopted, at least in the
short term.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 21.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 21pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; outline: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">One, e-way bills. The implementation of e-way
bills should be postponed for at least a year. The existing electronic system
is woefully inadequate and one shudders to think what will happen if every
movement of goods requires access to a portal for generation of an e-way bill.
Further, most transport operators have only a few trucks and it will be cruel
to inflict this torturous system on them when the Centre and states are ill
prepared.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 21.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 21pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; outline: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Two, monthly returns. The proposed system of
filing GSTR-1, GSTR-2 and GSTR-3 — three returns per month — proved to be
unworkable and necessitated the GSTR-3B return which is a monthly summary. This
monthly return should be continued for a year till the electronic
infrastructure is improved. It is also worth reconsidering the need to file 36
monthly returns per year per state. These provisions are ill-advised and need
to be dropped.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 21.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 21pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; outline: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Three, matching of invoices. This system does
not exist anywhere in the world and there is not a single logical reason why
this should be implemented in India. It will place an intolerable burden on the
electronic infrastructure and entail huge compliance costs for the small and
medium sectors. There is a huge tax bureaucracy which is meant to take care of
errant tax-payers. If all assessees match their invoices, why have the tax
department or at least 80 per cent of them?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 21.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 21pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; outline: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Four, exports. No sector has been dealt with
a more crippling blow than the export sector. Under the earlier system, non
excise exporters, merchant exporters and service exporters could simply export
goods and services. In the GST regime, an exporter has to execute a letter of
undertaking subject to eligibility or a bond with bank guarantee just to
export. The government promised instant refunds but this has not happened.
Merchant exporters who could earlier procure goods without tax are required to
pay the GST which is a cash outflow. Airfreight on exports which was not
subject to service tax now attracts a GST of 18 per cent. Jobworkers who were
not taxed before now charge GST on the exporter. Now, had the system functioned
and all these input taxes were immediately and automatically refunded, the
position would have been tolerable. But serious glitches in the electronic
system have adversely affected the refund system resulting in serious working
capital pressure on exporters. Unless the earlier system is restored, Indian
exports will be seriously affected.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 21.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 21pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; outline: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Apart from the above not-to-do-list, the
following steps are suggested to make the GST business-friendly and more in
tune with Indian ground realities. One cannot wish away the large unorganised
sector and it is not practical to bludgeon them into becoming instantly
tax-compliant by digitisation. The composition scheme, applicable to traders up
to Rs 75 lakh, is a non-starter because it does not permit any inter-state
purchase/sale. Thus, a small hosiery shop in Mumbai cannot purchase banians or
socks from Tirupur. And traders in places like Delhi and Goa will be unable to
avail the scheme because most products have to be brought from other states.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 21.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">It is necessary to
seriously consider a flat-tax GST rate of, say, 10 per cent, on all businesses
with a turnover of upto Rs 2 crore regardless of the product or service. The
GST paid thereon should also be eligible for input credit. Such a reduction
will be a terrific boost to the growth of goods and services, while eliminating
huge paper work and electronic overload. However, it is necessary to determine
the number of manufacturers, traders and service providers who will come within
the Rs 2 crore slab, which can be increased or decreased suitably.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 21.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 21pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; outline: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">It is also necessary to stop making changes
in procedure and adding new requirements. Seven amendments to the CGST rules in
a span of less than three months and multiple amendments to notifications have
only increased the confusion. The FAQs, published at great cost, must be
binding on the Centre and the states as they ensure pan-India certainty. It is
strange to include a disclaimer after the FAQs resulting in an open invitation
to the tax department to make demands contrary to the clarifications issued
from time to time.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 21.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 21pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; outline: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">More serious problems lie ahead. The multiple
rates of taxation and an elaborate classification system are bound to lead to
classification disputes. It is imperative that classification is shrunk to
three or four categories with not more than three applicable rates. A lower
rate of GST will stimulate demand and spur economic growth because high taxes
are always counter-productive. Indeed, a major part of the revenue of the
states is from petroleum products and excise duty on alcohol. The collection of
sales tax on various other goods is substantially less. Therefore, having a
maximum GST of 18 per cent will result in substantially more revenue than the
present complex system of higher rates of taxes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 21.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 21pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; outline: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">The proposed system of shared administration
will also lead to serious difficulties. It is better that the states are given
exclusive jurisdiction to deal with assessees upto a turnover of Rs 10 crore or
even Rs 25 crore so that the Centre can only deal with assessees with higher
revenue. It will, of course, be necessary to ascertain the number of units that
will be covered if the slab is raised to Rs 10 crore or Rs 25 crore.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 21.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 21pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; outline: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Even the most ardent supporter of the GST
cannot deny that the new system has not been as beneficial as expected. The
present GST system, like socialism, sounds wonderful in theory but is
completely unworkable in practice. It is dangerous to proceed with the hope
that things will eventually settle down. Immediate steps are necessary to
ensure that India’s second tryst with destiny does not become a tryst with
disaster.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

blog we covered the details. As per the schedule, meeting was taken place. The Mumbai administration presented the issue in a lucid manner. As per the new GST regime,The staff position
were discussed in detail with facts and figures and urged to maintain uniform
vacancies in both the zones i.e. Mumbai and Pune. The delegation of
CESA Mumbai was present. The authority appreciated the sensible suggestions
made by us and rejected insensible submissions made by the self-styled leader of the splinter group. The issue of Aurangabad officers posted in Mumbai was
cropped up, but no decision was taken to repatriate these officers because of non-availability
of sanctioned posts therein.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

the Cadre not to promote any individuals in the name of Cadre, At least one should be
truth full to the colleagues those who have reposed faith on us. One should
not indulge in betraying and giving all sort of false assurances for cheap
popularity, which will give a wrong signal in the field level. One should not
give any assurances without knowing the ground reality, the administration can
only act as per the rule book and not to pamper or satisfy any individuals. To
secure favour for one individual can be a trick but for all need a policy decision.
To be fair needs an experience but taking a fare for cause is an unfair
practice and unethical.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">It is
always painful leaving own place whether it is on promotion or any other
pretext. Those who have undergone exile
leaving their family in one place and working in other area and coming
weekly/fortnightly/monthly to meet their family they know the pain and trauma
which they have silently beared. The life of Mumbai is always hectic but when
we join and settle in this city it has become our favorite place despite of its
merits and demerits and pace of life.
Mumbai zone is a stagnated one and on promotions in the fag end of the career the officers are forced to go out of Mumbai for a period of one year as
an exile. No officer willing to leave
this place and several officers denied their promotions when
they are posted outside, At present
there are 46 Superintendents of Mumbai in Pune Zone. Five officers have completed one year service
and thirty officers have completed six months and the rest have completed less
than that period. Nineteen officers
(17+2) are posted in Goa and 2 in Kolhapur,4 inpune customs. At present the working strength in Pune
is 452 where as the sanctioned strength is 567 thus there is a vacancy of 115
Superintendents and if the current 46 officers are added then there will be a
vacancy of 161 posts (i.e., about 28.39%) whereas at present Mumbai is having
vacancy percentage of 27% as number of officers posted in various formations
are not repatriated although they have completed their loan tenure. If all such officers are repatriated, there
will be an improvement in the Mumbai Zone position. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"> A meeting is scheduled on 12.09.2017 which is long
pending, wherein Chief Commissioner, Pune Shri A.K. Pande, Shri Gawai
Commissioner, Pune-I and Chief Commissioner, Mumbai Zone Shri S.C.Varshney will
assess the staff positions to maintain a
uniform vacancy in all the three zones viz., Mumbai, Pune, Nashik and

repatriate all the 46 officers as there are huge work load as the tax base has
been increased more than 6000 assesses are recently allotted in the new tax regime
plus there is a demand from M & P to post at least 10 Superintendents and
15 Superintendents to DGCEI. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Nashik and Aurangabad Commissionerates, is holding Additional Charge of Pune Zone also
had recently posted 8 officers of Aurangabad Commissionerate to Mumbai as they do not have vacancy in
Nashik and Aurangabad. In Pune zone, the
local officers are reluctant to move from Pune to Kolhapur, Customs and Goa
Commissionerates. When the officers of
Mumbai are posted on promotion to Pune Zone, they are forced to post in these
three places although they are seniors in ranking. If the proposals mooted by the Mumbai agreed
upon by the Pune C.C. then, the vacancies in Kolhapur, Customs and Goa are to
be filled by their own officers of Pune zone.
From the history of the Mahabharat till now no one wants to leave a
single inch of place, for others let us hope the best.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Mumbai to be posted plus any officers any education of their wards and officers
on compassionate grounds can be relieved and in their place no substitute can
be posted. The officers of Aurangabad
posted in Mumbai are equally undergoing hardship postings. When proportionate vacancies are under
discussions then the vacancy of Nashik and Aurangabad are to be taken on the

Superintendents are to be posted on loan basis or on regular basis, then all
the officers be given deputation allowance as admissible. Their service should not be taken as bonded

taken is totally unfair towards central excise faternity. CESA, Mumbai
feels no officers be posted to M&P and the officers already posted therein
are to be repatriated. The stand taken

Commissioner of Central Excise, Zone-I Shri V.S. Krishnan that the work of

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Over 36 lakh businesses
have so far filed their first tax returns under the Goods and Services Tax (
GST) regime, a top tax official said on Monday.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background: white; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Tax
collected in the maiden filings under the GST regime, which kicked in from July
1, are still being compiled as the last date for filings under different rules
is not yet over, he said. The revenue department had estimated collection of
around Rs 65,000 crore from maiden GST, the official said.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background: white; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">The
deadline for filing first monthly return and payment of taxes under GST ended
on August 25.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background: white; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">However,
businesses that availed transitional credit were allowed to file returns till
August 28 after paying taxes on a self- assessment basis by August 25.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="background: white; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Under
GST, businesses are supposed to file monthly sales returns and pay due taxes
online. Since this was the maiden return after GST was rolled out on July 1,
the government gave companies extra time to file returns and pay taxes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Board of Excise and Customs, chairperson Vanaja Sarna had in her weekly letter
to tax officials said the last date for payment of GST for July 2017 was
extended up to August 25. But for those taxpayers who want to fill TRAN- I this
month, the last date for filing GSTR- 3B is August 28, she had said.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

GST rollout on July 1.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background: white; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Another
official said businesses can continue to file returns and pay taxes even after
the deadline ends, much like what happens in case of income tax returns and
payment.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

maximum Rs 5,000. Besides, every person who fails to pay the tax within the

"The compensation to employees in the form of money is not a supply.
However, fringe benefits are a supply of goods or services and are liable to
tax if not exempted," the CBEC said. The fringe benefits are transactions
in furtherance of business. "Even if supplied without consideration, the
same are deemed supply" and will attract GST, it said. On rental income,
it said GST will not be levied on the rental income of less than Rs 20 lakh in
a year. "That said, where the rental income from a single property is less
than Rs 20 lakh but the aggregate rental income from various properties exceed
Rs 20 lakh, the requirement for registration and GST payment will be
there," it said. </span></b></span></div>

cadre is surrounded with several issues and neglected by the Board because of
our structural set up and the recent development of our factions aggravate
further. No one is least concerned how the Inspector, Superintendent are
placed. The basic amenities like Chair, Table, Computers and Connectivity are
lacking forget out the supporting staff. The senior officers those who made as
incharge of the Commissionerate are busy with their own comforts and place of
office at their convenience. Junior officers are subject to all sort of
humiliation and frustration. Bifurcation of the Commissionertate to Central Tax
and the listing and handing over of the records are forced by the senior
officers in a cost cutting method from the lower cadre. <o:p></o:p></b></span></div>
