Officials thought that if a new change would be implemented during a big festival like Durga Puja, then people may have difficulty in understanding and adopting. Also, changing the system can be a bit difficult for traders during that time, as they are most busy during festivals.

According to information received from sources, the aim of this ‘Next-Jen GST’ is to make the system more straight, transparent and easy. Especially, this will make it even more simple for traders to fill online documents and submit returns. GST portal will also see major improvements.

With the date of implementation of this change on 22 September, the government not only took a big decision from the economic perspective, but has also fully respected the cultural diversity of the country. These improvements will be implemented just before the important festival like Durga Puja, which lasts for several weeks and is celebrated on a large scale so that no one has any system related problems during the festival and all people can drown in their celebration.
