TCISCS: Goods and Services Tax (GST) and its Impact on Supply Chain

Be ahead of the pack and take benefits of the immediate savings post GST, and act now

The implementation of GST (and abolition of Central Sales Tax(CST)), in 2010, is a major milestone for the Indian Tax System, which will bring about changes in the way manufacturing, warehousing and distribution is carried out in India. Organizations have to restructure their supply chain strategy to overlook tax boundaries and will be able to position their warehouses and distribution networks, more focused on cost and time. To stay competitive, companies should be ready with their new supply chain strategy post GST - with details of an optimal network structure and the steps that needs to be taken to get there.

Some of the key decisions required in order to re engineer the supply chains post GST will be:

· Own v/s Outsource decisions for services

· Intra state v/s Inter State procurement of goods

· Manufacturing and warehousing locations

· In-house v/s Contract Manufacturing.

· Direct selling v/s stock transfer
