Background
Sec. 10 of GST laws provides bit of relaxation from
huge tax compliances and encourages small scale business to enjoy lower tax and
compliances through Composition scheme. However, this restricts to do businesses
within the state (no inter-state business).

this scheme and escape from maintenance of books and tedious tax calculations

GOODS can opt for composition scheme (Retaurants also can opt). Also, not
applicable for e-commerce business (but still we call Digital India)

excluding Alcoholic liquor) – 5% (2.5%
CSGT + 2.5% SGST)
Other Supplies (Dealers and
Traders) – 1% (0.5% CGST + 0.5% SGST)
Challenges under this scheme

invoice hence, purchaser may not be interested in buying

state sales are permitted)
Ø Tax is a burden on the dealer as this cannot be
recovered
