APPLYING FOR ADVANCE RULING – A GOOD IDEA OR NOT?
We have seen in the recent times that after the implementation of Goods & Services tax Act, 2017 due to various confusions arising in minds of the Taxpayers, they are opting for making an Application for an Advance Ruling concerning the goods or services they deal in. The Taxpayers are under a ‘not-so-correct’ impression that the Ruling would bring clarity on Tax Rates and get rid of the confusions. We are already witnessing the difference of opinions of different Advance Ruling Authorities in several States. Secondly, we have also observed a pattern of the Authority for Advance Ruling to support a view which imposes a higher rate of tax on the goods or services or which is not in favour of the taxpayer. This can be highly detrimental to the Taxpayer as once they have obtained the Ruling it would be binding on them and their jurisdictional officer and they will not have the option to deviate from it. Application is being made without putting in any thought and purely on the whims and fancies of the Taxpayers. Taxpayers should also think that a view taken in relation to a particular product or service or both can greatly affect the entire industry. It can have a huge effect and could also lead to surevyes or audits by DGGI or by the GST Department which can have serious consequences on the business. One should always take professional guidance and opinion before Applying for Advance Ruling as it would have a huge impact on the market as a whole. Because a great Author once said “do not just take a risk; take the risk. When you are taking the risk, ponder!” .
