How to report turnover while filing GST returns when the dealer is paying GST under margin scheme and the turnover required for GST audit?

In respect of second hand goods, a person dealing in such goods may be allowed to pay tax on the margin i.e. the difference between the value at which the goods are supplied and the price at which the goods are purchased, and this is the margin on which GST is to be paid to avoid double taxation. if there is no margin, no GST is charged for such supply. The amount received by you under margin scheme is the amount of sales and therefore you will have to show the turnover like any other turnover is shown in GSTR 1/ 4 and in GSTR 3B. And for Audit you will have to see that you fall under the category of regular taxpayer or composite taxpayer or under QRMP scheme. If you fall under regular taxpayer then only you will be eligible for GST Audit.

what are the similarities between the earlier taxation system and the GST regime?

 As we all know that GST was conceptualized by the Atal Bihari Vajpayee Government in 2000 and the implementation of GST in India on 1st JULY 2017 was a historical move, as it marked a significant indirect tax reform in the country. Overall if you will see then the earlier taxation and GST regime is almost same and A lot of similarities are there, the thing is that only the ways and procedure has changed. Concept of taxation is same in both systems only the procedure and method has been modified. Major similarities that comes to my mind are: Online filling of tax returns. E- Way Bill Needed for invoice greater than 50000. Cascading effect - ITC available to be claimed. Method of calculating Tax. Distribution of tax is same as we pay CGST as central tax and SGST as state tax and IGST as interstate tax, earlier it was VAT, ET, & CST.  Percentage based rates of tax. Tax on export of Goods & Services was excluded earlier also and it is excluded in GST also. Overall if you sit to wr
