In other countries, GST is known as Value Added Tax or VAT.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">GST exemptions apply to the supply of most financial services, the supply of digital payment tokens, the sale and lease of residential property, and the import and local supply of investment precious metals.

Although this problem has been attempted to be resolved in the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CGST Act, 2017<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> under the provisions of section 76 which deals with tax evasion of non-payment cases that is not an effective barrier.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In many studies, it has been found that most <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">business<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> organizations perform such tasks without fear of the law or moral conscience. They keep the money collected as GST from the general public putting it in their pockets. In some cases, they are not ready to file an income tax return or have been caught and have already admitted that they have collected it and are obliged to pay it to the government. In such cases, the tax authorities are left with no choice but to go to the show-cause notices, issuance of decrees, and procedures for the refund of the amount of tax that should have reached the government otherwise.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This situation of taxable but unpaid taxes is very common in sectors such as restaurants, hotels, insurance, etc. It was a surprise to find out during the investigation that one of the so-called virtual business houses also indulged in GST collections and did not deposit the same. They even accepted the truth during the investigation but did not want to pay the same to the government. They don\u2019t care that their peers in the same field don\u2019t participate in such a practice, so they can\u2019t call it a normal business practice. They are making a fortune on social capital. The level of public financing by these businesses is in the hundreds of thousands.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"Trust\"><b>Criminal Breach of Trust<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the general public pays taxes on the goods and services they receive, the business community is confident that any taxes they pay will go to the government. Given IPC 1860, section 405, which deals with criminal breach of trust, its key elements are:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0The accused must be entrusted with dominion or property over it.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0You must have appropriated the property wrongly<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Either altered it in its use or discarded it in breach of that trust.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span id=\"Final\" style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thus, instances where a business entity collects money from the public as a GST and does not invest the same amount in government complete all ingredient tests as mentioned above and fall under a breach of public trust. Thus breach of public trust by agents of the collection could be counted as a criminal breach of trust<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/legalwindow.in\/gst-registration\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-109329 size-full\" title=\"Quick GST Registration in Jaipur\" src=\"https:\/\/legalwindow.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/Get-your-GST-Registration-in-1000-All-Inclusive..png\" alt=\"Quick GST Registration in Jaipur\" width=\"1000\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.legalwindow.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Get-your-GST-Registration-in-1000-All-Inclusive..png 1000w, https:\/\/www.legalwindow.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Get-your-GST-Registration-in-1000-All-Inclusive.-600x120.png 600w, https:\/\/www.legalwindow.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Get-your-GST-Registration-in-1000-All-Inclusive.-300x60.png 300w, https:\/\/www.legalwindow.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Get-your-GST-Registration-in-1000-All-Inclusive.-768x154.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/h2>\n<h2><b>Final words\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The situation needs to be handled more robustly in GST.
