In data processing, SAP stands for Systems, Applications, and Products. The SAP R/3
system is a corporate software program that integrates all aspects of a company’s

Data migration is a huge project that impacts both master and transaction data and
necessitates the deployment of a large number of professional employees. Businesses
had a difficult time adjusting to the GST system at first.
The race was won by enterprises that planned and implemented an efficient change
management strategy for their ERPs to transition to GST. SAP, for example, has included
the GST compliance requirements into its system for both current and new clients.
Now that you know what SAP is all about, let’s jump to configuring SAP GST in India.

Could you please tell me in short what LOS and POS in GST mean?

Surabhi Guleria REPLY

AUGUST 8, 2022 AT 6:22 PM
Hello Varsha,
Location of Supplier (LOS): The location or state where the supply is produced.
Place of Supply (POS): The city or state where the supply is made.
I hope I was clear.

Please explain the difference between progressive and regressive taxation.

Surabhi Guleria REPLY

AUGUST 8, 2022 AT 6:24 PM
Hello Ahmed,
 A progressive tax is a type of tax that increases in proportion as taxpayers’ income
increases. For instance, there are six marginal tax brackets for the federal income tax, with
the lowest bracket at 10 percent and the highest at 39.6 percent (highest-income
taxpayers). The progressive nature of state income taxes is generally present.
The precise opposite is a regressive tax. Because the tax is not based on ability to pay,
higher-income people pay a smaller percentage of their income than lower-income
taxpayers. Using state sales tax as an illustration, everyone is subject to the same tax rate,
irrespective of their income.

Surabhi Guleria REPLY

AUGUST 23, 2022 AT 4:52 PM
Hello Arjun,
The pilot rollout approach entails a group of users who consent to use the software in a
restricted manner in order to evaluate its capabilities and decide how to effectively apply
the process on the project or within the business.

It’s simply fantastic how you’ve mentioned all the different kinds of GST. Also, could you
please tell me who is necessary to register under GST?

Surabhi Guleria REPLY

SEPTEMBER 5, 2022 AT 5:54 PM
Hello Sangeetha,
Thank you for your kind words.
The Goods and Services Tax Act of 2017 requires any business with a turnover of Rs. 40
lakh or more to register for GST. The turnover threshold for GST registration in the
northeastern and hill states is Rs. 10 lakh.
