GST officers to focus on widening base, increase cash tax collection

With the GST rates and processes almost stabilising after nine years of the GST rollout, the Centre and states' tax officers have been told to work towards deepening the taxpayer base, increasing cash tax collections, and using intelligence and deeper data analytics to nab evaders, sources said. They said e-invoicing for B2C transactions would come into effect from April 1, 2027, with GST Network providing the support system to states to move towards it. GST officers will act as a facilitator for businesses and tell them the audit benefits of the tax department having granular data. Sources further said that some of the process reforms, including the Rs 10,000 threshold for sending notices, approved by the 57th GST Council meeting, require only changes in rules and could be rolled out sooner. With the economic benefits of last year's GST rate rationalisation showing results, GST officers will now follow a more facilitative approach rather than mandatory compliance to show trust

War Of Aggression Against Russia: German Lawmaker Makes Awkward Ukraine Slip Mid-Speech

German CDU lawmaker Gunther Krichbaum made an awkward verbal slip while discussing Berlins continued support for Ukraine, briefly referring to the conflict as a war of aggression against Russia before immediately correcting himself to say Ukraine. Speaking in Luxembourg, Krichbaum was explaining Germanys position on Ukrainian elections and Russian-held territories. He said elections could only take place when free and fair voting was possible throughout Ukraine and reiterated that Germany would not recognise the occupation of Ukrainian territory. During those remarks, Krichbaum said: We must never forget that this war of aggression against Russia against Ukraine, pardon me is a war that violates international law. The CDU politician immediately corrected the mistake and continued his statement. His broader remarks maintained Germanys established position supporting Ukraine and rejecting recognition of Russian control over occupied Ukrainian territory. The verbal slip nevertheless produced a striking moment during his comments on the war.

Irans Kurdish Rivals Targeted In Iraq Again As Two Drones Strike Opposition Camp Near Koya

Two drones have struck a camp belonging to an Iranian Kurdish opposition group in northern Iraq, bringing another cross-border security incident to the Kurdistan region amid heightened regional tensions. According to reports from Rudaw and Shafaq News, the drones targeted the Azadi camp of the Kurdistan Democratic Party of Iran, or KDPI, near Koya in Erbil province.
