OVERVIEW ON GST
What is GST?
22
India. The Goods and Service Tax Act was passed in the Parliament on
29th March 2017. The Act came into effect on 1st July 2017; Goods &
Services Tax Law in India is a comprehensive, multi-stage, destination-
based tax that is levied on every value addition.
In simple words, Goods and Service Tax (GST) is an indirect tax levied
on the supply of goods and services. This law has replaced many
indirect tax laws that previously existed in India.
GST is one indirect tax for the entire country.
So, before Goods and Service Tax, the pattern of tax levy was as
follows:
Under the GST regime, the tax is levied at every point of sale. In the
case of intra-state sales, Central GST and State GST are charged. Inter-
state sales are chargeable to Integrated GST.
Now let us try to understand the definition of Goods and Service Tax
"GST is a comprehensive, multi-stage, destination-based tax that is
23
levied on every value addition."
Multi-stage
24
VALUE ADDITION
The manufacturer who makes biscuits buys flour, sugar and other
material. The value of the inputs increases when the sugar and flour are
mixed and baked into biscuits.
The manufacturer then sells the biscuits to the warehousing agent who
packs large quantities of biscuits and labels it. That is another addition
of value after which the warehouse sells it to the retailer.
The retailer packages the biscuits in smaller quantities and invests in
the marketing of the biscuits thus increasing its value.
GST is levied on these value additions i.e. the monetary value added at
each stage to achieve the final sale to the end customer.
Destination Based
ADVANTAGES OF GST
GST has mainly removed the Cascading effect on the sale of goods
and services. Removal of cascading effect has impacted the cost of
25
goods. Since the GST regime eliminates the tax on tax, the cost of
goods decreases. GST is also mainly technologically driven. All
activities like registration, return filing, application for refund and
response to notice needs to be done online on the GST Portal; this
accelerates the processes.
Components of GST
There are 3 taxes applicable under this system: CGST, SGST & IGST.
• CGST: Collected by the Central Government on an intra-state sale
(Eg: transaction happening within Maharashtra)
• SGST: Collected by the State Government on an intra-state
26
sale (Eg: transaction happening within Maharashtra)
• IGST: Collected by the Central Government for inter-state sale
(Eg: Maharashtra to Tamil Nadu)
Tally Entries
Following process are followed for accomplishment this task:
Firstly, we review all records of vouchers carefully, that no any
vouchers had any queries related to adjustments.
Then, we make a separate folder for that work.
Then, we create a company in Tally software by that company name
and started doing entries.
Receipts & Payment entries are posted carefully as it carries some
contra entries also.
Then after completing entries posting recheck the data by Balance
sheet, Trial balances & Day book.
Any queries related to this work communicated to our external
mentor.

COMMUNICATION

GOAL SETTING AND PLANNING
Even setting the primary goal can be difficult when multiple issues are
competing for attention. Effective planning requires arranging
problems by importance and delegation. It is impossible to do
everything at once, but if one focuses on the most important tasks and
ask for help, then can accomplish a lot.
SELF-IMPROVEMENT
29
EMPATHY
CONFLICT RESOLUTION
There is no racism on the basis of any caste, creed, color or gender. Everyone
is treated same thus making it easy to co-ordinate with each other and to share
views and ideas with each other. The mentors as well as the colleagues are
always ready to sort out any problem that the interns could not resolve on their
own.
30
Everyone is disciplined and dedicated towards their job, thus provides
motivation to do our jobs perfectly and to learn and grab as much as we can.
The perfect competitive environment always motivates us to excel in our job
responsibility and to perform better than we are performing
The working environment is lenient in the organization. Neither the employees
are overburdened by the work given. Neither they nor the proprietor force
them to work for extra time. All the work/targets are completed by the
employees in the provided time frame.
The employees are always energetic and ready to do work; they don't waste
their time. They always strive for excellence with effectiveness and efficiency
in their work. Even if the proprietor is not at the office they don't skip work
hours.
The proprietor is really good at customer handling, he is always too humble
towards the clients even though if the clients are in bad mood or tempered, he
never loses his temper and handles them greet fully. He never abuses his
employees even if they make silly mistakes, and corrects their mistakes by
smiling and sarcastically commenting on it so the employees don’t feel down
and eventually improve themselves.
The firm, to be more competitive in future, still has room for improvement in
Information Technology. As firm don't have any of its website to attract
customer and their timely feedback as most of the good firms have their own
web and well organized.
Firm also lacks in marketing perspective as it does not any marketer to market
and introduce their business, firm is getting business only on personal relations
of the partners and other firm personnel. So if firm wants to improve its
business volume it needs a professional marketer as many other big firms
adopted and have complete marketing department.
The employees are provided less salary than the government has asked to
provide in minimum wage act, therefore the employees must be provided at
least the minimum salary. It is 6 days working in the organization; most of the
organizations are using 5 days working schedules so that employees don't feel
exhausted and their efficiency increases. So the organization must provide at
least one-day leave to the employees to rest and freshen up.
Most of the computers and laptops in which the work was done were old and
because of that we were unable to carry out our tasks properly. The
32
organization must have proper systems so that the work load can be handled
efficiently.
