Collective efforts of officials from various departments gave birth GST. And to spread its awareness, Central GST and Central Excise Department officials joined hands in organizing an ‘outreach programme’ to understand the new tax regime and clear the misconceptions encircling it. During this special session, HRD Minister-Mr. Javadekar was the Chief Guest who was of the opinion that this tax has been designed for making India economically strong.
With taxes becoming the main topic of conversation, Union Human Resource Development Minister-Mr. Prakash Javadekar opined that Goods and Services Tax (GST) course be introduced at Maharaja Sayajirao University in Vadodara, Gujarat.
The Union Minister was of the view that such a course would prove to be a boon for Tax and Finance professionals who would have to get the GST basics right.
