Mumbai : Indian broadcasting sector is happy to note that the Government is mulling over calling a special session of parliament in the second week of September 2015.\u00a0 On behalf of the sector, I would strongly appeal to the government to stay course on the implementation of GST Bill as it intends to bring a semblance of uniformity to the taxation structure, subsumes all existing central and state indirect taxes under one value added tax, both on services and goods, leading to greater efficiency and business speed.<\/p>\n
Looking at the larger perspective, a national comprehensive tax regime will not only integrate the goods and services sector, but will usher in greater transparency and consistency making compliance easier.<\/p>\n
