The Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) has developed and launched a mobile app named ‘ GST Verify ‘ to protect interest of consumers.
The application is to verify if the person collecting GST from the consumer is eligible to collect it or not. It also provides the details of the person / company collecting GST, an official press statement said.
“Every time you shop/eat/buy check the bill if there is any GST amount mentioned, if yes verify through this app if she/he is genuinely registered person or not, thereby you save the amount shown as tax from the fraudster if he is cheating you,” the statement said.
It further said that a Composition Tax Payer should not collect the tax from his consumer.
The application is developed by joint commissioner in GST Hyderabad, Mr. B Raghu Kiran.
It can be used all across the country. It is now available to download in Google playstore, it also said.
The app can be downloaded from here.
