Timely and strict compliance of the law being the back bone of self-assessment under GST, becomes more important for every registered person under GST. And as the law is new for all and one, various interpretational and compliance issues are the initial challenges being faced by the industry.

The assessees who are already registered in Central Excise, Service Tax, Customs or State VAT are normally accustomed to timely comply with the procedural aspects of relevant statues. And the ones, who are for the first time being covered under indirect taxes feel more of these issues.

Textiles sector is one of such industry that has more or less enjoyed an exemption regime until now. With the imposition of Goods and Services Tax recently, the textile, hosiery and related job work units which are large in numbers and are mostly from micro, medium and small segment of industry are facing teething problems in this new regime of taxation. Most of the present units in Textile segment are running their units for several decades without being liable for Central Excise and Service Tax in particular and State VAT in general. The issues of concern for them range from procedural like rates of taxes to legal like place of supply of goods.

I am here with a series of write-ups concerning Goods and Services Tax specifically concerning Textile Sector with an endeavour to deliberate on these areas of concern.

This article, the first in the series will be covering rates of GST on Textiles, readymade, hosiery goods and the goods used in textile industry.
