A great Job by the Revenue Officers
THE Officers of the Indian Revenue Service in both the Boards have done a commendable job. It is not an easy task to draft all these complicated Bills and notifications, especially in the Indirect Taxes. The Himalayan task they had so silently executed is incredible. The Legislative wing of CBEC is called Tax Research Unit (TRU) and the bright boys in TRU has done tremendous research and for one tenth of this work, they would get Ph.D from the best universities. In all this maddening work, the JS, TRU in charge of Service Tax, VK Garg has not lost his touch of humour when he says in his DO Letter, “It is said that in matters relating to taxes, questions rarely change, but the answers do. Budget 2012 has, however, changed a number of questions relating to service tax.”
