The GST in its initial years will increase the cost of doing business in most industry. The increased costs will be mainly on software acquisition, hardware upgrades, training of employees, recruitment of dedicated staffs to administer the GST operation, documentation and lastly, professional fees in support of this implementation.

In addition, salaries, EPF, bonuses for engaging extra scarcity human capital for GST compliance, providing required training to these personnel will lead to efficient and effective growth of business.

The acquisition of hardware and modification of software to accommodate the claim of GST input tax and accountability for GST output tax, submission of GST returns, quarterly payment of GST to the government, keeping GST records for seven years, facilitating GST audit to prepare for GST appeal, and being accountable for penalties where required are risks that cannot be ignored.

The goods and services tax (GST) is operational effective on 1 April 2015, which will be approximately 10 months away from now. The Malaysian GST model is business friendly, broad consumption based which leads to stable and constant revenue collection for the government to restore the federal surplus

COST HIKE IS NOT SOLELY DUE TO GST’S INPUT TAX

Although GST theoretically is paid by the consumer and collected by the business operator, failure to accommodate the GST well within the system will add to the GST cost, as it has to be prepaid to the government prior to sales on accrual basis. Worse yet, the cost may still be the responsibility of the business operator due to some specific circumstances as seen in industry that is designed as exempt supply.

System

Full comprehension of the GST mechanism will mitigate the GST risk. Failing to comprehend the concepts within GST model will result in unnecessary cash flow being tied down or even lost when stock is written off or lost or when products are given away during promotional campaigns and through personal use.
