Proposals submitted for audit appears to have been used as input for creation of separate Audit Commissionerate in each zone  (see para 6 B of letter)

Since 50% of the GDP of the country is contributed by services sector, service tax administration has to be widened to effectively implement it and ensure optimum revenue collection by bringing all the service providers under the cover. In view of the proposed implementation of GST (Goods & Services Tax) in the year 2010, our department has to be present in almost all the district headquarters with one Division headed by a DC/ AC.

Since self-assessment procedure has been implemented and not many documents are now being submitted to the range offices, it is important to have all the assessees audited once in every year so that lapses/evasions do not remain unnoticed for long periods of time. The present system of selective audit should be done away with and a new system of mandatory audit of all assessees once in a year should be introduced. This mandatory audit should be done by the officers of divisional office for which the following set-up should be created:-

• Each division should have five audit parties.
• Each audit party should be headed by a Superintendent.
• Each audit party should have two Inspectors.
