Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman asks officials to improve refund, registration of GST
File photo: Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman (Picture credit: ANI) NEW DELHI: Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Friday asked senior tax officials to prepare plans to improve parameters for GST registration, refund processing, and grievance redressal. During an interaction with senior officials under the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs, FM also asked officials to speed up processing of GST and customs refunds, as well as reduce dwell time at ports, airports, and inland container depots for import and export consignments. She noted that faster cargo clearance is crucial to enhancing India's global trade competitiveness. FM also called for the speedy closure of investigations and sought a detailed analysis of detection and recovery so that gap between the two can be reduced. "At the same time, the finance minister emphasised the need for preventing tax evasion and wrongful input tax credits claims," said an official statement after FM's meeting with principal chief commissioners and directors general of CBIC. She asked for the GST registration process to be made "easier, seamless, and more transparent" through use of technology and risk-based parameters. To reduce registration-related rejections and delays, she also suggested an outreach campaign. Emphasising taxpayer trust, she called for a targeted and sustained focus on grievance redressal, ensuring the timely resolution of queries and complaints through improved systems and accountability. Taking note of pending disciplinary matters, the minister directed that disciplinary proceedings against the officials at different levels be concluded expeditiously in a time-bound manner. CBIC was also asked to fill all vacant posts at the earliest across various levels to strengthen field formations and enhance administrative efficiency.

RBI's jumbo rate cut aims to spur spending & investment
RBI MUMBAI: RBI aimed to signal businesses that cheap funds will be available with its double-barrel rate cut earlier this month to boost growth through spending and investment. According to minutes of the monetary policy committee's meeting, the interest rate cut was triggered by signs that companies were deferring investment plans despite rising capacity utilisation even as inflation was expected to undershoot. Continued uncertainty had pushed top executives into what central bank officials described as a 'zone of inaction'. The MPC voted for an unexpected 50-basis-point (100bps = 1 percentage point) cut in the repo rate or the rate at which RBI lends to banks. The MPC also voted to change the policy stance to 'neutral' from 'accommodative' which RBI governor Sanjay Malhotra said gave it room to 'cut, pause or hike rate' depending on evolving conditions. . 'It is expected that the front-loaded rate action along with certainty on the liquidity front would send a clear signal to economic agents, thereby supporting consumption and investment through lower cost of borrowing,' the governor said in the minutes of the June 6-9 MPC meeting. The meeting also offered a glimpse into the policy stance of deputy governor Poonam Gupta, who joined the central bank in April. Her comments suggest a dovish leaning within the current policy context. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like What She Did Mid-Air Left Passengers Speechless medalmerit Learn More Undo Gupta underscored the importance of monetary support for accelerating growth, and said policy must help the economy 'attain and even surpass past rates of growth'. She voted for a 50bps cut, citing the need to 'foster policy certainty and faster transmission'. She also flagged the possibility of inflation falling below target. Internal member Rajiv Ranjan also backed a 50bps cut, saying the decline in inflation was sharper than expected, giving the central bank room to focus on growth. He said larger cuts in an expansionary phase are often needed to have the same impact on output as smaller hikes during contractionary periods. According to him, front-loading sends a stronger signal and speeds up transmission. 'It would be appropriate to provide some certainty on the domestic rate and liquidity front so that agents do not delay and postpone their decisions. Literature suggests that uncertainty plays a role in forming the 'zone of inaction',' Ranjan said. Stay informed with the latest business news, updates on bank holidays and public holidays .

JLR to face $2.1bn tariff hit: Chandra
Tata Group chairman N Chandrasekaran Mumbai: Tata Motors-owned British luxury carmaker Jaguar Land Rover faces potential tariff impacts of 1.6 billion pounds (about $2.1 billion) from new US trade measures, Tata Group chairman N Chandrasekaran said. He noted that ongoing mitigation plans aim to reduce this impact to 600 million pounds. "Tariff is a major issue, primarily for JLR," said Chandrasekaran at Tata Motors ' 80th AGM on Friday. "Without intervention, JLR's tariff rate would have gone from 2.5% to 27.5%. With the US-UK trade deal, the 27.5% tariff will drop to 10%. The overall impact even of the 10% will be 1.6 billion pounds. But JLR has taken a lot of steps through which it will be able to reduce the impact to 600 million pounds." This AGM marked Chandrasekaran's first appearance at a shareholder meeting after the Air India flight 171 crash on June 12, having missed shareholder meetings at Tata Consumer Products and TCS. The meeting held additional significance as it was the final AGM for Tata Motors before its division into two listed companies by year-end, focusing on passenger vehicles and commercial vehicles, respectively. Chandrasekaran also assured shareholders that China's export restrictions on rare earth magnets pose no immediate supply concerns, while the company explores alternative sourcing options. Rare earth elements play a crucial role in the production of permanent magnets, which are essential components in electric motors.
