Mangaluru: Mangaluru Central Excise & Central Tax Commissionerate conducted a feedback diwas on new GST Returns on December 7 at its offices in Mangaluru, Udupi and Karwar including the range offices in the taluks of Puttur, Sulia, Haliyal, Kumta and Honnavara.

The feedback divas was organised to familiarise the taxpayers about new Returns with the assistance of the officers, giving them a live demo, including hands-on training on the filing and uploading of the new Returns.

The new Returns RET 1, RET 2(SAHAJ) and RET 3(SUGAM), replacing the erstwhile GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B, will come into effect from April 1, 2020. The new GST Returns will enable the taxpayers to amend mistakes in original returns along with invoice matching which will go a long way in checking the menace of fraud and deterring habitual non-filers.

The feedback divas was well received by the trade and around 150 taxpayers participated in the programme, providing valuable feedback. Their feedback will be sent to the Ministry for further examination and necessary action to be taken.
