We have addressed most of the charging GST above MRP complaints raised. If you still see GST being charged above MRP, please share the same. more  
Only couple of days ago I went to a local multi-store for marketing. They didn't charge any GST or other taxes. More over they have allowed rebate on each item at least by 9% of the MRPs. GST was printed on the bills but the amount was shown as 'nil'. more  
SOME SPECIFIC CLARIFICATION NEEDED FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF CONSUMER AFFAIRS.for the following.: 1.The resource of Prashant Mohan :on GST on discounted prices with a bill attached July 8th Resource What is the SGST 6% , CGST of 6O charged in this post . CAN ANY ONE EXPLAIN WHAT IS CGST 6% & SGST 6% AS SEEN I THE BILL ATTACHED BY PRASHANT MOHAN . THIS IS APPEARED IN AN OFFICIAL BILL AND HAS GONE ON RECORD. CAN A TRADER CHARGE 2 GST 'S ? ONLY DEPT. OF CONSUMER AFFAIRS (GOVERNMENT OF INDIA) CAN GIVE A REPLY . The questions / doubts by circle members on your Resource post Dept. of Consumer Affairs (Government of India) Charging of VAT/GST above MRP: Inputs Sought. Anil Kumar chat July 4th I have purchased medicine from a dispensary located in MAX Hospital Bathinda today i.e. on 04th July 2017. MRP of Capsule T 3 is Rs. 164/-. But after addition of GST, it comes to Rs. 171.23. Accordingly, I have paid Rs. 171.23 against MRP of 164/-. I am in possession of the Cash Memo. Chetan Sharma A retail stores in ambala, haryana charged extra vat in addition to price of clothes I have bills of these store to verify this transaction . Another attached bill dated in July had the details of tax for liquor . 10% Service tax , then SGST AND CGST on the service tax . This may be the old pattern of taxing coupled with GST ? more  
Previously it was mandetory to declare VAT TIN number while charging the VAT on every bill iself. I fail to understand why it is not compulssory to state the name of the selling agency & his GST registration number on every bill? This is a great loop hole to deceive the customers. 1. I request Department of Consumer Affairs to block this loop hole urgently & earnestly by swift action. OR else anybody will print the bills , charge GST to Consumers & will not deposit the GST in the Treasury/ banks. 2. It should be possible for law abiding sellers to authorise any bank to deposit their GST collections directly from their current / cash credit etc accounts without filling too many forms or standing in long ques at treasury or SBI branches. more
