ABSTRACT
Value added tax (VAT) is a type of indirect tax that is imposed on goods and services. A question that arises is whether value added tax has been a boon or misery for a developing country like India. Around 136 countries in Asia have recognized the importance of value added tax. In one of the most large scale reforms of the country’s public finances in over the past 50 years, India has finally agreed the launch of its much delayed value added tax from 1st April,
2005 at a rate varied from 1% to 12.5%. The tax rate is fixed by meeting of different state level
Finance Minister, in New Delhi, designed to make accounting more transparent, to cut short trade barriers and boost tax revenues.

THE MECHANISIM OF VALUE ADDED TAX
Value Added Tax (VAT) means the tax which is payable only on value-added. It is multi-point tax system but without the effect of double taxation. Value is added to the products, which an organization buys from other organizations such as raw materials, partly finished goods etc. After buying the organization applies its own labor and machine to manufacture the final products. VAT is a tax, which is imposed at every stage of production i.e.., from production level to retail level. Under VAT tax is calculated on value Added where value added is the difference between sales value and purchase value.

“A government should tax its people like a shepherd shears a flock or a bee gets nectar from a flower” -Chanakya

    Prices of goods and services – including my favorite goodies – surged. This reminds me of an incident that occurred during this era, emphasizing my personal experience of the stunning price hikes. I once went to a grocery store to purchase an item. But to my utmost surprise, the size of the item was much smaller. The seller had intentionally decreased the size of the item to offset the additional cost incurred from the increment in taxes. Upon seeing the expression of disappointment and disbelief on my face like a map, the seller responded frustratingly, “Kotey, the NDC government has imposed VAT on everything; it is killing us.” I stood there stiff and speechless as a simple question run through my brain, “What is VAT and how does that concern me?” Since that day, I followed the implementation process of most public policies and pro-poor programs, trying to decipher the spinoff effects on citizens – especially in deprived areas –welfare. And I was, still I’m, fascinated of how these economic policies dictate the pace in local, regional and national economic development. Indeed, these practical experiences points to the genesis of my passion to study Economics. A passion born out of curiosity to understand how clearly outlined, well planned and carefully implemented public policies facilitate economic…

    In this article, Bhupinder Singh is evaluating the short-term and long-term effect of implementation of Goods and Services Tax (GST) in Malaysia based on the experience of other countries like Australia, Singapore, Canada and so on. GST is known as Value Added Tax (VAT) is a broad-based consumption tax levied on goods and services. Bhupinder Singh concluded that there is hardly a definite way to evaluate the short-term and long-term impacts of the introduction of GST in Malaysia. The advantage of GST is that it only charges on the final supply to the end consumer. Besides that, GST will be replacing the existing service tax and sales tax, thus, it will cause those taxable items to become cheaper. However, there’s still has disadvantage of GST, that is, there will have large number of goods and services which are free from tax will be burdened with GST.…
