GST Updates 2021 – Ecommerce Operators | In A Minute

#Watchnow #Inaminute video where Jatin Arora, Partner, Phoenix Legal takes us through this GST Council update in relation to e-commerce operators.

GST Updates 2021 – In the 45th GST Council meeting, it was decided to shift the burden of tax on the restaurant services to e-commerce operators like #Swiggy#Zomato through whom these services are delivered. In the video, Jatin quickly explains what this update is about and the impact that it is likely to have on e-commerce operators.

He takes us through the details that this is not a new tax introduced on e-commerce operators. The restaurant charges 5% GST on their supplies. Also, the e-commerce operators pay 18% GST on the commission earned by them.

This will be in effect from 1st January 2022 and instead of the restaurants, the e-commerce operators will charge the tax on the food supplies. The e-commerce operators will charge GST on every supply that they will make, irrespective of whether the restaurant supplying the food is exempt from GST or not. This means there will be additional burden on compliance side for restaurants. The e-commerce operators will also have to do changes in their software to accommodate this change and do additional compliance.

An important issue to be considered is that the restaurants are not eligible to avail input tax credit (ITC) for their supplies. Whereas the e-commerce operators do avail ITC. For more clarity on these points, we need to watch out for the notifications issued by the government.

Stay tuned for more GST updates happening in 2021

Karnataka Draft Bill : BAN on online gambling? | LawWiser Shorts

The Karnataka government has decided to impose a ban on online gambling or betting. However, lottery and horse racing have not been prohibited. These amendments will be made to the Karnataka Police Act, 1963.

The draft of the Karnataka Police (Amendment) Bill, 2021, is yet to be available publicly. #Watchnow #LawWiserShorts on Karnataka Draft Bill: Online Gaming by Srinivas Kotni, Founder and Managing Partner, Lexport. He shares his views on the Karnataka government’s proposal to ban online gambling by amending the Karnataka Police Act.

The state government has also announced imposing penalties and arrests in cases of violation of these proposed rules. It is expected that there would be a balance in the distinction between the game of skill and the game of chance. As many start-ups are venturing into online games of skill and are also seeking investments for the same. A blanket ban would impact this sector hugely in terms of investment and employment as well.

However, various courts have repeatedly held that games of skill would not be covered under gambling and they cannot be outright prohibited. The sector is seeking proper regulation of online gaming including online gambling. Once the draft bill is made public more information on the provisions would clarify any doubts.

PLI (Production Linked Incentive) Scheme – Textile Industry

Production Linked Incentive is also commonly known as PLI scheme. This PLI scheme offers incentives on incremental sales from items produced in India over the base year. Apart from scaling up local production, the scheme also seeks to curb cheaper imports and reduce import bills.

#Watch LawWiser Shorts, where Mukund P Unny, Advocate, Supreme Court of India, shares his quick take on the PLI scheme for the textile industry.

The PLI scheme for textile has been given cabinet clearance and this scheme is slated to improve business in the textile industry in a big way. Interestingly, the purport of the scheme is limited to just man-made fibres, apparel.

He shares that the total budgeted outlay is around 10,000 crore and the government has designed the scheme to try and ensure that there is a recovery in textile production in India. The scheme seeks to help those industries that invest in the production of 64 select products.

The scheme is for two types of investments. One- there should be a minimum of ₹300 crore investment in plant, machinery, equipment. That investment must translate into a minimum turnover of ₹600 crores once it commences operation. Second, there should be a minimum investment of ₹100 crores, and eventually, this company should achieve a minimum turnover of ₹200 crores.

Thus, the incentive is based on a combination of investment and turnover. The incentives will be paid for five years after the first year of post-investment operation. The textile industry is human resource-oriented in great deal, and it will be in job creation in this segment.
