GST Implementation in SAP

Overview:

 Goods and Services Tax (GST) is the biggest indirect tax reform India has adopted since
independence.
 It subsumes most of the indirect goods and service taxes levied by the Indian Central and State
Governments
 Under GST, goods and services are taxed at the rates: 0%, 5%, 12%, 18% & 28%; some special
rates are still applicable for specific category of products.
 GST came into effect from Jul 1, 2017.

GST Readiness in SAP:

 As a pre-requisite from SAP, it is mandatory to migrate the tax calculation procedure in SAP from
formulae based TAXINJ to condition based TAXINN procedure; thus fading away the significance of
Tax Codes in SAP.
 Depending on the SAP version, it is also required to install to the relevant support pack(s)
provided by SAP.
 SAP has also released various Notes & Knowledge Articles related to GST implementation in
Customers’ SAP Systems

Areas Impacted:

 GST Registration
 Master Data maintenance in SAP
 Tax Configuration and Computation
 Business Process Localization
 GST Tax postings
 Tax Reporting (Internal Reports + Statutory Reporting)
