MINISTER OF STATE FOR FINANCE

(SHRI ANURAG SINGH THAKUR)

(a) Yes, Sir.

(b) No, Sir. It will not be in line with the administrative structure of CBDT.

(c) No, Sir. There was no Cadre Restructuring Committee constituted by CBIC. However, consultations were held with all stake holders including officers and staff federations/associations representing Group A, B and C cadres.

(d) and (e) Yes Sir. The shift in indirect tax administration and its business processes due to introduction of GST has been taken into consideration while formulating the Cadre Restructuring proposal. The average tax payer and revenue base and the geographical contiguity are the two salient principles of the cadre restructuring proposal.
