Introduction:
In a bid to enhance the ease of doing business for taxpayers registered under the Goods and Services Tax (GST), a recent advisory has introduced two new payment methods under the e-payment system. This article serves as a detailed guide on utilizing Credit Card (CC), Debit Card (DC), and Unified Payments Interface (UPI) for seamless transactions.
Expanding Payment Options:
To cater to the diverse needs of GST taxpayers, two additional payment methods have been integrated into the e-payment system. Alongside the existing net-banking option, taxpayers can now conveniently utilize Credit Card (CC) and Debit Card (DC), including popular cards such as Mastercard, Visa, RuPay, and Diners (CC only, issued by any Indian bank).
Universal Accessibility through Kotak Mahindra Bank:
One notable feature of this new payment system is its compatibility with Kotak Mahindra Bank, allowing users to make payments using CC/DC issued by any Indian bank. While Kotak Mahindra Bank has already integrated this feature, other banks are currently in the process of joining this initiative. Presently, this enhanced payment facility is available in 10 states, and the remaining states are expected to integrate soon.
Quick Steps for Seamless Transactions:
For those eager to embrace the convenience of CC, DC, and UPI payments, the process is designed to be user-friendly. Here are the quick steps to navigate through the new payment options:
- Select Payment Method: Choose the desired payment method – Credit Card (CC), Debit Card (DC), or Unified Payments Interface (UPI).
- Card Options: If opting for cards, choose from a range of widely accepted options – Mastercard, Visa, RuPay, or Diners (CC only, issued by any Indian bank).
- Bank Independence: Irrespective of the bank that issued your Credit Card or Debit Card, payments can be seamlessly processed through Kotak Mahindra Bank. Other banks are in the integration process.
- Availability Across States: While the enhanced payment facility is currently operational in 10 states, it’s anticipated that all states will soon adopt this advanced system for the convenience of GST taxpayers.
Conclusion:
This advisory signifies a significant stride in making the payment process more versatile and accessible for GST taxpayers. With the introduction of Credit Card (CC), Debit Card (DC), and Unified Payments Interface (UPI) options, the e-payment system aims to provide a hassle-free experience. Keep an eye on further updates as more states join this initiative, ensuring a uniform and user-friendly payment experience for all GST taxpayers.
