Maharashtra discontinues issuance of Identification Certificate to units under Package Scheme of Incentive

The Maharashtra Commissioner of State Tax on 19/03/2021 has discontinued issuance of Identification Certificate to units under Package Scheme of Incentive for the Eligibility Period starting from 01/07/2017. In view of the change in the Tax system from VAT to GST, as there is no provision for issue of Identification Certificate under State Goods and Service Tax Act, it is decided not to issue Identification Certificate to any Eligible PSI Unit for periods under GST. The concerned officer has to maintain the record of PSI units on the basis of Eligibility Certificate only.
