The Commissioner, State Taxes and Excise, Yunus, in a release issued here today, stated that the department has framed Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) to prevent tax fraudsters from entering into the GST system at the registration stage itself.
“It has been observed that registration applications from persons declaring fake details in registration applications are being regularly received bt the Tax authorities” he said. The department has come out with SOP’s to be adhered to by the tax officers while granting registrations to prevent tax fraudsters from entering into the GST system which mandates physical verification within 30 days of the date of registration, proper evaluation of attached reference documents viz: electricity bills, rent agreements, purchase deeds etc.
Apart from this careful evaluation is to be done by the tax officers of the basic details filled in by the applicant with an AADHAR card or any other reference identity in case of the application where a person is not a resident of the State.
There will be no deemed approval as the processing of registration application will be dealt within a prescribed timeline, said Yunus. All the zonal and districts in-charge have been directed to ensure effective implementation through periodic review to ensure double security, said he, adding that it will be the responsibility of the district and Zonal in-charge not to let their circle stay unattended.
