responses of the states will be obtained (on the
discussion paper) and the draft will be finalised for
discussion. We are trying to do that within the end of

reporters after a meeting here.
The Group will hold discussions with the stakeholders,
including trade and industry, after finalisation of the

The draft, for which a joint working group was
constituted last month, would deal with important issues
like legislation, rules and procedures of the GST.
The group for preparing the draft comprises officials
from the Finance Ministry and state revenue officials.
