Ministry of Electronics and IT has launched a dedicated webpage to help companies in the IT services and electronics sector to adapt to the GST regime.
The webpage will help address issues being faced by the companies in the sector and also enable them to file for grievance redressal with regard to GST implementation, an official release said.
"In order to ensure preparedness for GST implementation from July 1, 2017, Ministry of Electronics & IT (MeitY) has launched a dedicated webpage for facilitating taxpayers with regard to addressing issues related to information technology services and electronic goods," it said.
