GST: A Transformational Tax Reform
V.S. Krishnan
About the Book
It would be no exaggeration to say that the GST is one of the most important reforms in post-independent India. Its impact is multi-layered, ranging from tax behaviour to strengthening the federal polity to ensuring fiscal equity.
The book carries a foreword by India’s finance minister Arun Jaitley.
Excerpts:
“...Mr Krishnan had a ringside view of the evolution of the GST. The book is written in a very lucid and readable style... a number of interesting
suggestions have been made from the policy perspective. I am sure that this book will be useful for both, the lay reader and the tax professional.”
— Arun Jaitley

<p>“The Goods and Services Tax (GST) has been one of the revolutionary reforms of the post-independence India. The GST will essentially shape our national economy of the 21st century.

Shri Krishnan has been one of the distinguished members of the Indian Revenue Service. He has himself richly contributed to the reforms of India’s indirect tax system which provided the foundation for the GST revolution. This volume gives insights about the origin of the GST and the road ahead for its successful implementation. This volume will be of great value to the tax officials, our business community and for the serious students of India’s public finance.”<br />

<p>“V.S. Krishnan’s book brings out how GST is a ‘game changer’ in the field of indirect taxation in India. The set of ‘business rules’ would be of particular help to trade and industry in their day to day working. Shri Krishnan’s <br />
long association with formulation and roll out of GST is clearly visible in this book.” <br />
