The GST System Project is a unique and complex IT initiative set up for the first time that seeks to establish a uniform interface for the tax payer and a common and shared IT infrastructure between the Centre and States. Hitherto, the Centre and State indirect tax administrations have worked under different laws, regulations, procedures and formats and the IT systems work as independent sites.
Integrating them for GST implementation would involve integrating the entire indirect tax ecosystem so as to bring all the tax administrations (Centre, State and Union Territories) to the same level of IT maturity with uniform formats and interfaces for taxpayers and other external stakeholders.
GSTN would also need a robust settlement mechanism amongst the States and the Centre. This is possible only when there is a strong IT Infrastructure and Service backbone which enables capture, processing and exchange of information amongst the stakeholders (including tax payers, States and Central Governments, Accounting Offices, Banks and RBI).
