Abstract
Recently, the Empowered Committee of State Finance Ministers released the First Discussion Paper on Goods and Services Tax in India. This discussion paper is the result of three years of deliberations between policy makers of the Central Government and State Governments to herald the Indian economy in to a unified common market with free movement of goods and service across the length and breadth of India.

This paper examines some aspects of the proposed regime.
