MISSION GST – TO EDUCATE ALL

The Tirupati Commissionerate covers three districts of Chittoor, Kurnool and Ananthapur in

Rayalaseema region of Andhra Pradesh. This region has mostly rural populace with a distribution of

manufacturing industries such as Cement, Iron & Steel, Electrical equipments, etc., and Services such

as GTA, Works Contract Service, Manpower recruitment Agency, Security Services, Site preparation

& clearance, etc., spread throughout the region. During 2015-16, the total net revenue collected

was Rs.1344 crores. Upto November 2016, the total net revenue collected is Rs. 1216 crores and the

Commissionerate is poised to exceed the revenue target.

As part of the outreach programme to familiarise the concept of GST among the present assesses

and traders, the Jurisdictional Assistant Commssioners and Range Officers are continually meeting

the individual assesses and also conducting meetings, where GST pamphlets prepared by the

Tirupati Commissionerate containing in a nutshell the salient features of the GST law, are

distributed.

Furthermore, during January 2017, several programmes to educate the assesses on the steps to be

taken towards migration/ registration on the GSTN are to be conducted at Tirupati, Ananthapur and

Kurnool locations.

To take the outreach programme further and to give the widest possible coverage to GST to all

sections of the society, especially the common public who may not be our assesses but are certain to

bear the effects of GST, it was decided to establish a GST stall at the pavilion of the 104th Indian

Science Congress held at Tirupati from 3rd to 7th January 2017 and inaugurated by our Hon’ble

Prime Minister. Through this programme, it was decided to bring about an awareness among the

common people too about the advantages of GST over the present taxation at a minimal cost. The

GST stall was manned by 5 officers to attend to and answer the queries of the visitors. Posters

explaining the salient features of GST were displayed prominently at the stall and the GST pamphlets

were distributed to the visitors. A power point presentation on GST prepared by the

Commissionerate was also continually screened for the visitors.

The stall attracted an overwhelmingly huge number of visitors including school/college students,

delegates, manufacturers/service providers, professionals, etc., who posed several questions on GST

which were effectively handled by our officers.

A hot air balloon in tri-colour prominently bearing the logo of CBEC, GST , Make in India and Swatch

Bharath was hoisted . The initiative was very well received and attracted great attention of all

visitors to the Congress as well as residents in the neighbourhood.
