Point of Taxation Rules, 2011 Service Tax

Hello Friends here I am sharing about Point of Taxation Rules, 2011 (Service Tax)

Point of Taxation Rules, 2011 is effective from 01.04.2011. As per this rule payment of service tax is to be made on the accrual basis instead of receipt basis. Point of Taxation Rules, 2011 also discuss about the specify date relevant for determining rate of service tax.

Earlier service tax was payable on receipt basis i.e. on receipt of payment of invoice or bill from customer or receipt of advance whichever is earlier. Now from April 1, 2011 service tax will be payable on billing basis and not on receipt of payment basis. However option has granted to assessee to continue with payment on receipt basis upto 30.06.2011 if they so desire.

Point of Taxation Rules, 2011 is not applicable for Professional i.e. Practicing CA/CWA/CS, Advocates, Architects, Interior Decorators, Scientist. Thus Professional will continue to pay service tax on receipt basis instead of accrual basis even after 01.07.2011

However there is no maximum limit for accumulating credit of CPE hours from any of above mode. A Chartered Accountant doing job can complete his CPE credit hours requirement through any of structured or unstructured learning mode.

Structured learning mode

The structured learning program is being organized by the ICAI and its committees where credit of CPE hours are being set on some rules based on type of organized program.

The credit for this type of learning is being given automatically, if a CA is present in the organized program.

Unstructured learning mode

Unstructured learning (ULAs) program is divided in eight types of major activities:

1.    Web Based 2.    Self learning
3.    Home Study 4.    Discussion on technical issues
5.    Acting as faculty 6.    Teleconferencing program
7.    Questionnaires/Journals 8.    Internal Training Program

The CPE Credit through this mode is available for any correspondence course; listening Audio CDs purchased from ICAI; Reading and Individual Home Study including reading articles in the CA Journal, reading technical, professional, financial or business literature; Group or bilateral discussion on technical/professional issues; working as a faculty member in any college, university or a management or national importance institution; internal training program organized by CA firm with more than 6 partners.

Claiming CPE Credit hours of unstructured learning

A CA can claim CPE credit hours of unstructured learning activity (ULA) through self declaration form, available at ICAI website. Within 5 Months of close of a calendar year (e.g. for calendar year 2011 form must be submitted upto 31.05.2012) duly filled-in and signed self declaration form to be submitted to the concerned Decentralized Offices. On the basis of Self Declaration submitted by the Members, the concerned Decentralized Offices would enter the CPE Hours Credit on the CPE Portal under the Head Unstructured Learning Activities (ULAs).

However, the CPE Advisory can accept, reject, or reject partly, the said claim.

What is XBRL (eXtensible Business Reporting Language)

extensible Business Reporting LanguageXBRL stands for eXtensible Business Reporting Language. XBRL is developed by XBRL International which is a not-for- profit organization consists of companies and agencies internationally, working together to build the XBRL language standard, promote and support XBRL’s adoption.

XBRL is an XML-based computer language (eXtensible Markup Language) for electronic transmission of business and financial data. XML is based on the concept of meta-data. This meta-data provides context to the information which makes the data almost self-explanatory. Wherever the XBRL data moves, it carries along with it the context, which makes it intelligent and thus any software application can interpret and process the data.
XBRL is a powerful and flexible version of XML which has been defined specifically to meet the requirements of business and financial information.  It enables unique identifying tags to be applied to items of financial data. The rich and powerful structure of XBRL allows very efficient handling of business data by computer software.  It supports all the standard tasks involved in compiling, storing and using business data.  Such information can be converted into XBRL by suitable mapping processes or generated in XBRL by software.

Advantages of XBRL: XBRL make data frees from paper-based reports and allows it to flow between XBRL-enabled software applications. It can automate financial analysis also. Computers can intelligently “read” an XBRL report to select specific data, pull it into documents and spreadsheets, analyze it, exchange it with other computers, and present it in a variety of formats. This can all take place in real time, allowing users to instantly compare hundreds of companies, industry sectors, topics, and issues, with automatic updates.

XBRL data is more accurate and transparent than data in financial statements that appears in legacy electronic and paper reports. For investors and analysts, XBRL eliminates the time, labour, and errors. It provides a systematic analysis of data. XBRL tags both numbers and textual information, which means not only balance statements, but information such as statement of principals, and even footprints, appendices, and updates, is accounted for, to aid in internal audits and external research and analysis.
