Chandigarh, April 14

A delegation of the Chandigarh Beopar Mandal (CBM) has handed over a memorandum containing some suggestions for a simple and trader-friendly goods and services tax (GST) to UT Additional Excise and Taxation Commissioner Rakesh Popli.

CBM president Charanjiv Singh said their main suggestions included only three standard tax slabs of 0%, 5% and 15%, permission for submitting revised GST returns, doing away with the provision of criminal cases and instead imposing only penalty in case of any lapse in the GST return.

GST coordination committee chairman Ram Karan Gupta and CBM general secretary Sanjeev Chadha were also part of the delegation.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
