PPBM members meet DETC over verification of GST dealers A delegation of Punjab Pradesh Beopar Mandal (PPBM) met the District Excise and Taxation Commissioner (DETC) Rajwinder Kaur regarding door-to-door verification of GST dealers.

The PPBM delegation was led by their president Piara Lal Seth. The delegation met the DETC, Amritsar, Rajwinder Kaur over the department imposing a door toll on GST dealers.

A memorandum was handed over to the DETC after holding a meeting on the issue of verification of the premises of GST dealers.

DETC Rajwinder Kaur told the PPBM delegates that the registered dealers need not be scared of anything. She suggested that they take some precautionary measures like putting up a board with GST number, name of the firm and address at their premises.

She also asked them to keep the GST certificates, PAN cards of their companies, Aadhaar cards of their partner, proprietor and director in their offices.

The door-to-door verification of GST dealers is a new initiative by the government to ensure compliance with the GST laws. The verification will be conducted by the Excise and Taxation Department and will cover all registered GST dealers.

The purpose of the verification is to check whether the dealers are complying with the GST laws, such as filing returns on time, collecting and depositing GST, and maintaining proper records.

The PPBM has raised concerns about the door-to-door verification, arguing that it is an unnecessary intrusion into the privacy of the dealers. They have also expressed concern that the verification could lead to harassment of the dealers.

The DETC has assured the PPBM that the verification will be conducted in a fair and transparent manner. She has also said that the department will not harass any dealer who is complying with the GST laws.

The door-to-door verification is a welcome initiative by the government. It will help to ensure compliance with the GST laws and will also help to build trust between the government and the taxpayers.

However, it is important to ensure that the verification is conducted in a fair and transparent manner. The government should also ensure that the dealers are not harassed during the verification process.
