    Team Cafemutual Jun 24, 2020

    Only seven days left for Maharashtra MF distributors to opt for lower GST rates under composition scheme.

    If you earn up to Rs.50 lakh and do not have any business with AMCs outside the Maharashtra, you are eligible to avail benefits of lower rates under the composition scheme.

    Eligible distributors can opt for the composition scheme on GST portal before June 30, 2020.

    Under the scheme, service providers earning up to Rs.50 lakh can pay GST rate of 6% instead of 18% with effect from April 1, 2019. However, these service providers cannot avail input credits if they opt for the composition scheme. Also, they will have to pay taxes quarterly but file returns annually.

    In addition, MF distributors can file GST returns for March, April, May and composition returns till June 30, 2020.

    It’s an insult done to IFA community by the mutual fund industry by not considering non-Maharashtrian IFAs at par with them. No provision of GST holds AMCs to get register in state capital. That can facilitate to consider all are equal and eligible for composition benefit.

    But, what that is missing is commitment by AMCs to create an environment amongst IFA community pan India that all are equal. So called and projected themselves as leaders of the industry should understand that the differencial rate of GST between Composition - 5% and others 18%.

    Fund managers spending their time to count on their annual compensation in crores, where as IFAs are struggling to meet their living.
