As a pre-requisite to shift to Goods and Services Tax (GST) Regime, every existing tax payer is required to migrate it’s existing indirect tax registration to GST.
Deadline to migrate all state VAT, Service Tax and Excise Duty registrations was set at 31st March 2017. Considering delay in rolling out laws and lack of preparation in Industry only 28.2% Service Tax assessees (but not registered under State VAT) and 12.32% Central Excise assessees (but not registered under State VAT).
Government has extended the deadline to migrate existing registration (a.k.a GST Enrolment) to 30th April 2017 for all existing registrations to be migrated across state and centre.
