OVERVIEW OF GST
GST is known as the Goods and Services Tax. It is an indirect tax which has replaced many indirect
taxes in India such as the excise duty, VAT, services tax, etc. The Goods and Service Tax Act was
passed in the Parliament on 29th March 2017 and came into effect on 1st July 2017.
In other words, Goods and Service Tax (GST) is levied on the supply of goods and services. Goods
and Services Tax Law in India is a comprehensive, multi-stage, destination-based tax that is
levied on every value addition. GST is a single domestic indirect tax law for the entire country.
Before the Goods and Services Tax could be introduced, the structure of indirect tax levy in India
was as follows:
19
ADVANTAGES OF GST
GST has mainly removed the cascading effect on the sale of goods and services. Removal of the
cascading effect has impacted the cost of goods. Since the GST regime eliminates the tax on tax,
the cost of goods decreases. Also, GST is mainly technologically driven. All the activities like
registration, return filing, application for refund and response to notice needs to be done online on
the GST portal, which accelerates the processes.
20
COMPONENTS OF GST
There are three taxes applicable under this system: CGST, SGST & IGST.
CGST: It is the tax collected by the Central Government on an intra-state sale (e.g., a transaction
happening within Maharashtra)
SGST: It is the tax collected by the state government on an intra-state sale (e.g., a transaction
happening within Maharashtra)
IGST: It is a tax collected by the Central Government for an inter-state sale (e.g., Maharashtra to
Tamil Nadu)
OBJECTIVE OF STUDY
To achieve the ideology of ‘One Nation, One Tax:- GST has replaced multiple indirect taxes,
which were existing under the previous tax regime. The advantage of having one single tax means
every state follows the same rate for a particular product or service. Tax administration is easier
with the Central Government deciding the rates and policies.
To subsume a majority of the indirect taxes in India:- India had several erstwhile indirect taxes such as
service tax, Value Added Tax (VAT), Central Excise, etc., which used to be levied at multiple supply chain
stages. Some taxes were governed by the states and some by the Centre. There was no unified and
centralized tax on both goods and services. Hence, GST was introduced. Under GST, all the major indirect
taxes were subsumed into one. It has greatly reduced the compliance burden on taxpayers and eased tax
administration for the government.
To eliminate the cascading effect of taxes:- One of the primary objectives of GST was to remove the
cascading effect of taxes. Previously, due to different indirect tax laws, taxpayers could not set off the tax
credits of one tax against the other. For example, the excise duties paid during manufacture could not be
set off against the VAT payable during the sale.

OVERVIEW OF TAXATION
What is Tax in India?
Taxes are levied by governments on their citizens to generate income for undertaking projects to
boost the economy of the country and to raise the standard of living of its citizens.
The payment of tax is beneficial on multiple levels including the development of the nation,
betterment of infrastructure, the upliftment of the society, and even for welfare activities for the
nation.
What are the Different Types of Taxes in India
There are two main categories of taxes, which are further sub-divided into other categories.
• Direct Tax
• Indirect Tax
There are also minor cess taxes that fall into different sub-categories. Within the Income Tax
Act, there are different acts that govern these taxes.
Direct Tax
Direct tax is tax that are to be paid directly to the government by the individual or legal entity.
Direct taxes are overlooked by the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT). Direct taxes cannot be
transferred to any other individual or legal entity.
23
Indirect tax
An indirect tax can be transferred to another entity; it is imposed on the manufacturer, who then
passes it on to the customers. The tax amount is added to the product’s selling price in the form of
Excise duty, Service tax, VAT, etc.

IMPORTANCE OF INCOME TAX

basic exemption limit or if they meet certain criteria like expenditure on foreign travel being more
than Rs.2 lakh, electricity consumption of Rs.1 lakh or more, deposited an amount/aggregate of an
amount above Rs.1 crore in one or more current accounts in FY 2019-20 or onwards.
In the case of a resident whose asset is located outside India or has signing authority for an account-
based outside India. It is always a good idea to file your ITR even if you are not eligible due to the
benefits.
• Hence it is advisable to file ITR even if your income is below the basic exemption limit.

LEARNING
Behavioral Learning from the Organization
COMMUNICATION
Good communication consists of many other different sub-skills. from suitable patterns of body
language and eye contact with the ability to write clear and accurate reports. Accurate listening
and 'the ability 10 follow instructions are especially important but are one ignored or taken for
granted. Many people simply do not pay close attention to what others say or write and do not ask
follow-up questions to check their understanding. As a result, individuals act on their own
inaccurate assumptions and create inefficiencies and frustrations at work. Communication training
will help them overcome these challenges,
GOAL SETTING PLANN ING
Anybody can wish for something to happen, but to accomplish anything one must plan which
surprisingly few people know how to do. Planning requires setting concrete goals, identifying
workable action steps, and making a commitment to see the plan through.
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 once, but if one focuses on the most important tasks and ask for help, then can
accomplish a lot.
SELF-IMPROVEMENT
Life in the workplace should not enforce stagnation; there should be a constant need or desire
for improvement. Satisfaction leads to a perception of repetition, which is the essential of a job
perceived an unchallenging. Employees should improve 10 avoid both the frustration of
inexperience and contentment with their work.
Being an empathetic individual comes naturally to some. but is less natural to others. Behaving
with empathy means more than feeling bad for someone who's sad or sharing in someone else's
joy, It means being able to step into someone else's world to understand not just what their point
of view is, but also why they have that point of view.
32
BEST PRACTICES OBSERVED IN THE ORGANISATION
✓ 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.
✓ 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 them.
33
SUGGESTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Though tile organization is really good at everything und everything is well maintained and
managed. But still there are some chances of improvement whether it is a human being or any
organization till there are improvements and chances to develop and grow. the organization must
improve itself vat its best, in my opinion some of the suggestion/recommendations are:
✓ They have good opportunity to introduce the ISO standards training program which no
other firm is giving to customer.
✓ Try to adopt new technologies 'that 'their competitors are not using. Make a network 'that
allows its customers to negotiate with them easily,
✓ In comparison with their competitors, SHEKHAR CA & CO. has an edge in making an
accurate and error free report.
✓ The local economy continues to be strong and we believe our typical clients will continue
to nourish.
✓ The company -has mostly professional educated human resources, which are the biggest
'threat Cor their competitors.
✓ CAW Rahman & Co. strongly needs to improve its network firms so as to be counted
among one of the extensively know firms in UK. The partner needs to make the best use
of their goodwill to bring more clientage and reputation to firm. They need to offer the
audit services at most economical cost with the assured quality services to retain and
expand clients.
✓ The infrastructure and working condition reviews can improve the working efficiency of
the trainees. Audit and Assurance is the tough job. Some motivational meetings and
mentoring, exercises would bring good feel among employees for their work. Time to time
financial 'bonuses or performance incentives will energize the staff.
✓ The trainees are not offered extra financial or any other incentive for the extra work or over
time. This causes some sort of abstractions which immediately need to be overcome by the
management.
34
CONCLUSION
✓ CA W Rahman & Co. is overall one of the profits making and reputed firm of Earth, the
organization since its very first day is devoted to providing quality services. The detailed
and through review of work and clients' trust shows the perfection with which it is working.
