STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS
The Manipur Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 was enacted pursuant to
enactment of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 to make provision for
levy and collection of tax on intra-State supply of goods or services or both by the
State of Manipur and for matters connected therewith or incidental thereto.
2. The provisions of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 were
amended through sections 114 to 150 of the Finance (No.2) Act, 2024 and similar
amendments were required to be carried out in the Manipur Goods and Services Tax
Act, 2017 at the earliest to bring them into effect from 1st November, 2024, as per
the decision of the 54th GST Council and to avoid repugnancy with the said
Central Act.
3. Since the Legislative Assembly of Manipur was not in session, the Governor
of Manipur promulgated the Manipur Goods and Services Tax (Eighth Amendment)
Ordinance, 2024 on the 30th October, 2024.
4. On the 13th February, 2025, a proclamation was issued by the President
under article 356 of the Constitution declaring that the powers of the Legislature of
the State of Manipur shall be exercisable by or under the authority of Parliament. In
the mean time, the Manipur Goods and Services Tax (Eighth Amendment)
Ordinance, 2024 ceased to operate on the 29th April, 2025.
5. As the said proclamation issued by the President was in force in the State
of Manipur since 13th February, 2025 and Parliament was not in session and
circumstances existed which rendered it necessary to take immediate action to have
continuance of the Manipur Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 in line with the
Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017, the President, in exercise of the powers
conferred by clause (1) of article 123 of the Constitution, promulgated the Manipur
Goods and Services Tax (Amendment) Ordinance, 2025 on the 9th June, 2025.
6. In accordance with sub-clause (a) of clause (2) of article 123 of the
Constitution, the Manipur Goods and Services Tax (Amendment) Ordinance, 2025
is to be replaced by an Act of Parliament and for the said purpose, it is proposed to
introduce the Manipur Goods and Services Tax (Amendment) Bill, 2025 in
Parliament. The salient features of the said Bill, inter alia, are-
(i) to amend sub-section (1) of section 9 of the Manipur Goods and
Services Tax Act, 2017 (the said Act) so as to levy State tax on un-denatured
extra neutral alcohol or rectified spirit used for manufacture of alcoholic liquor
for human consumption;
(ii) to make consequential amendments in sub-section (5) of section 10
of the said Act, so as to incorporate a reference to the proposed new
section 74A;
(iii) to insert a new section 11A in the said Act, so as to empower the
Government of Manipur to regularise non-levy or short levy of State tax where
it is satisfied that such non-levy or short levy was a result of general practice;
(iv) to amend sub-section (3) of section 13 of the said Act, so as to
specify the time of supply of services in cases where the invoice is required to
be issued by the recipient of services in reverse charge supplies;
(v) to insert a new sub-section (5) in section 16 of the said Act, so as to
carve out an exception to the existing sub-section (4) and to provide that in
respect of an invoice or debit note for the Financial Years 2017-18, 2018-19,
2019-20 and 2020-21, the registered person shall be entitled to take input tax
credit in any return under article 39 which is filed up to the thirtieth day of
November, 2021;
(vi) to insert a new section 74A to provide for determination of tax not
paid or short paid or erroneously refunded or input tax credit wrongly availed
or utilised for any reason pertaining to Financial Year 2024-25 onwards and
to make consequential amendments thereto in the relevant provisions of the
said Act;
(vii) to insert a new section 128A to provide for waiver of interest or
penalty or both relating to demands raised under section 73, for certain
tax periods;
(viii) to validate the actions taken under the lapsed Manipur Goods and
Services Tax (Eighth Amendment) Ordinance, 2024; and
(ix) to insert a suitable saving clause to save the actions taken under the
Manipur Goods and Services Tax (Amendment) Ordinance, 2025 proposed to
be replaced.
7. The Bill seeks to achieve the above objectives.

PRESIDENT'S RECOMMENDATION UNDER ARTICLE 207 OF THE
CONSTITUTION OF INDIA
[Copy of letter No. 2(2)-B(S)/2025, dated 05 August, 2025 from
Smt. Nirmala Sitharaman, Minister of Finance and Corporate
Affairs to the Secretary-General, Lok Sabha]
The President, having been informed of the subject matter of the Manipur
Appropriation (No. 2) Bill, 2025 to authorise payment and appropriation of certain
sums from and out of the Consolidated Fund of State of Manipur for the services of
the financial year 2025-26, recommends under clauses (1) and (3) of article 207 of
the Constitution read with article 204 thereof and the Proclamation dated 13.02.2025
under article 356 of the Constitution, the introduction of the Manipur Appropriation
(No. 2) Bill, 2025 in Lok Sabha and also the consideration of the Bill.
FINANCIAL MEMORANDUM
The Bill seeks to amend the Manipur Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017. The
Bill, if enacted, will not involve any expenditure, either recurring or non-recurring
nature from the Consolidated Fund of India.
MEMORANDUM REGARDING DELEGATED LEGISLATION
Clause 9 of the Bill seeks to empower the Government of Manipur to provide
by rules, the conditions and restrictions for revocation of cancellation of registration.
2. Clause 10 of the Bill seeks to empower the Government of Manipur to
provide by rules, the time period for issuance of invoice by the recipient in case of
reverse charge mechanism supplies.
3. Clause 12 of the Bill seeks to empower the State Government to mandate
the electronic furnishing of return for each month by the registered person required
to deduct tax at source, irrespective of whether any deduction has been made in the
said month or not. It further empowers the Government of Manipur to provide by
rules, the form, manner and the time within which such return shall be filed.
4. Clause 33 of the Bill seeks to provide that all the proceedings in respect of
the notice or order or statement, as the case may be, referred to in clause (c) of
sub-section (1) of the proposed new section 128A, shall be deemed to be concluded
subject to such conditions as may be provided by rules to be made by the
Government of Manipur.
5. The matters in respect of which the rules may be made under the aforesaid
provisions are matters of procedure and administrative detail and it is not practicable
to provide for them in the Bill itself. The delegation of legislative power is,
therefore, of a normal character.
