Navigating the New GST Amendments 2024: Key Changes You Need to Know

In 2024, significant amendments have been made to the Goods and Services Tax (GST) laws, impacting businesses across India. As a Chartered Accountant, it’s crucial to stay updated on these changes to provide accurate advice and ensure compliance.

1. Input Tax Credit (ITC) Restrictions: The new amendments impose stricter conditions for claiming ITC. Businesses must now reconcile their invoices with their suppliers' GST returns. Failure to do so can result in denied credits, impacting cash flow.

2. E-Invoicing Expansion: E-invoicing is now mandatory for businesses with a turnover exceeding ₹5 crore, down from ₹10 crore. This change aims to enhance transparency and curb tax evasion. Ensure your clients' systems are updated to comply with this requirement.

3. Revised GST Rates: Several goods and services have seen revised GST rates. For instance, the tax on electric vehicles has been reduced to boost eco-friendly transportation. Staying abreast of these changes is essential for accurate billing and compliance.

4. Composition Scheme Updates: The threshold for the Composition Scheme has been increased, allowing more small businesses to avail lower tax rates and simplified compliance. This change can significantly benefit eligible clients by reducing their tax burden.
