GST and Its Effects on Start-Ups https://upstartspace.com/gst-and-its-effects-on-start-ups/ https://upstartspace.com/gst-and-its-effects-on-start-ups/#comments Tue, 19 Feb 2019 10:20:20 +0000 https://upstartspace.com/?p=789 Upstart Co-Working Space recently hosted an exclusive members-only startups networking event to discuss Goods and Services Tax (GST) and its implications on start-ups.

GST and Its Effects on Start-Ups

]]>
Upstart Co-Working Space recently hosted an exclusive members-only startups networking event to discuss Goods and Services Tax (GST) and its implications on start-ups. GST is termed as the biggest modification to the tax structure since India became independent.

The Guest of Honor was Chartered Accountant (CA) Mr Rajesh S. Prasad who comes from a family of three generations of CAs. His firm, R. Sriramprasad & Co., has accumulated experience of over 35 years. Other esteemed guests at the cocktail event included Howard James Scott, Managing Director (MD) of LogBiz Group along with his business partner Mr. Gurpinder Singh Sidhu, and Mr Kishore Tarachhand from Granada Software (Innovative ERP).

GST and its effects on Startups 

Before discussing the implications of GST, let us look at what it means. GST will replace all other indirect taxes collected by state and central governments. Some of these include central excise duty, service tax, central sales tax (CST), value added tax (VAT), entertainment tax, luxury tax,  and others.

Due to the amalgamation of these various state and central taxes into a single tax, the cascading effect will be eliminated. This is a major move towards paving the way for a common national market.

Here are five common questions on GST and its effects on start-ups.

  1. Is tax credit available on purchases?

Several start-ups are in the service industry and pay service tax. Under the new GST regime, these ventures are allowed to set-off GST paid on their purchases with the tax levied on their services. The present tax structure of VAT does not allow for this tax credit.

  1. Will the GST compliances make the procedure complex?

The complete procedure from registration to paying and filing returns for GST is online. As GST eliminates all types of indirect taxes and simplifies the whole tax structure, entrepreneurs will be able to easily comply with GST.

  1. How will GST impact e-commerce and online start-ups?

Several ventures offer products and services through the Internet. GST will be levied across the country eliminating the complexities of inter-state transfers of goods and services. Until GST, states had different VAT laws making it complex for online ventures to meet these requirements. The different laws and compliances will be eliminated in the GST regime enabling efficient business operations.

  1. What is the threshold for registration?

The current VAT structure requires a business with a turnover exceeding INR 5 lakh to register and pay the tax. GST increases this threshold to INR 20 lakh, which exempts several start-ups from registration. The composition scheme offers respite to new ventures through lowered taxes for companies with turnover between INR 20 lakh and INR 50 lakh.

  1. What is input tax credit?

The input tax credit is available for taxes paid on the supply of goods and services. However, these must be used or intended to be used during business operations or its furtherance. Furthermore, the input tax credit is available only if the invoice details match between the recipients and suppliers.

The successful implementation of GST will make India a single marketplace where free movement of goods will be a reality. In addition, start-ups will have to adhere to lesser compliances. Although companies may face some challenges during the transition period, GST will be beneficial in the long-term.

“Location is the key to most businesses, and the the entrepreneurs typically build their reputation at a particular spot.” – Phyllis Schlafly

Startup office space offer more wider options as compared to the past, where it was all about work from home or leasing a private office. But, These days startup office spaces are designed to suit best with your business personalities.

Many entrepreneurs put a lot of effort in setting up the foundations of a business like selecting a business name and registering their website. But often forget to evaluate the physical location of the business because they want to establish a base as soon as possible. This would in turn harm their business as location is the key to most business and the entrepreneurs typically build their reputation at a particular spot.

“Think it as you are finding a new home for your business (child).”

 

An entrepreneur should ask themselves these questions before matching their perfect startup office space.
  1. How long is the lease signed for?
  2. What is the forecast of my company’s growth in 10 years down the line and will the office be suitable? Is the space flexible?
  3. Does the office space suit my business personality and needs?
As an entrepreneur, let’s discover how to match your perfect startup office space to your business personality.

  5. EVENTS & MENTORSHIP

    The best office type matches the best to your business personality. Some offices give you all the support and mentorship needed for a business to flourish and it’s better to choose. They also help in business registration and various key help in business set up.
    Considered as a second home, some offices also provide de-stress and fun events and games.

  6. FINE PRINT

    Read the given fine print carefully to understand the office timings, amenities, restriction, prices and other legal clauses before choosing your startup office space. The more flexible the agreement clauses, the better the office to be chosen.

Future of work

“Change is inevitable, Growth is optional” – John C Maxwell. Lets explore the future of work

As the famous goes, there is changes happening everyday in this technology world, redefining the requirements of workspace and so does the coworking industry is evolving accordingly. It’s time we rethink and reinvent the spaces that surround us and transform them into unique experiences as workplace is the place where we spend most of our time in a day.

9 Trends that will shape future of work

  1. Unlike the  80s and 90s where average work tenure was between 25-30 years, these days the average is less than three years. Long-term employment is now a story of the past. Accordingly organizations are shifting their strategies.
  2. The average age of CEOs is decreasing drastically – from 60 to 30 years, as more young leaders are redefining leadership. This is because organizations are valuing innovations. On the other hand Millennials’ consider company values which help them grow quickly.
  3. Virtual offices like wordpress are in boom. WordPress powers 28 percent of the internet, has more than 400 employees across 40 countries and yet no offices.
  4. According to a report by Oxford Academics, up to 47 percent of current jobs will be automated in the next 25 years. Roles such as manual testing that generated hundreds of thousands of jobs have become automated in the past decade. 30 percent of the workforce of major system Integrators used to be manual testers, but now they comprise a mere 10 percent of the overall workforce.
  5. As Individuals are already realizing the need for Learning and continual upskilling, online companies like Coursera, Simplilearn, Udacity, and Pluralsight are booming.
  6. The art of business today  truly lies in identifying the right domains and for entrepreneurs to nurture business ideas in newer domains. Its is no more about sticking to  one specific domain
  7. It’s no longer about working for 40 hours in a week but to take micro-breaks before they move on to the next project.
  8. Millennials want to be wooed, engaged and retained beyond good salary packages. Disengaged employees are more likely to switch jobs. So the key is to treat your employees as the most important stakeholders or customers.

With these trends taking place in the workspace, so is the the coworking environment changing.

What will coworking spaces look like in 2010?

  1. Many coworking spaces have expansion plans with planting multiple locations within one or many cities. Millennials, who will make up 75 percent of the workforce by 2030, crave these open, flexible work formats.
  2. Not only will the coworking space will provide fast Wi-Fi and access to coffee works, but also industry-specific coworking support.
  3. Entrepreneurs like in IoT technology would need dedicated space and physical assets for building, and testing hardware. So the new generation of coworking spaces and accelerators will rise to meet the need.
  4. The future of coworking will be more of a “melting pot,” where coworking space would give entrepreneurs an opportunity to collaborate with other innovators solving complex problems allows for a higher level of creative thinking.

The lines between life and work has started to blur as people spend most of their time at work. So its important to create an atmosphere that caters to different personalities and their mission or work style. So the future coworking space is seen to be very dynamic.

Startup Hire

The best entrepreneurs create increase employee engagement, and that makes teams more productive. So, the more entrepreneurs understand about personality, and the different personality types on their teams, the easier it becomes to engage and inspire team members.

The first thing to look for when searching for a great employee is somebody with a personality that fits with your company culture. Most skills can be learned, but it is difficult to train people on their personality. If you find people who are fun, friendly, caring and love helping others, you are a winner.

“Hire character, Train Skills.” – Peter Schutz

In the below “humorous” video we will be seeing the different types of employees

  1. The Sarcastic
  2. The Devdas
  3. The Day dreamer
  4. The Sleeper
  5. The Gorilla

Five types of #employees that every #Entrepreneur manage 😂 😂 | #Comedy | Upstart Coworking Space

The video showcased the different types of employees in a humorous way.

I can hear you now: “OK, I get it. Personality testing can help me understand my employees. Great. But what do I look for? How does knowing my employees’ personalities help me be a better entrepreneur?”

Simply put, it helps you find out the best ways to motivate your employees and keep them engaged.

  1. Understand that lifestyle is a big factor when it comes to your employees’ success In the Briggs Myers world
    1. Judgers
      1. Judgers typically take a structured, more organized approach to life
      2. provide opportunities at work that will engage these personality traits
      3. Consider assigning the Judgers on your team assignments that involve project management and strategic planning in order to keep them engaged and satisfied at work
    2. Perceivers
      1. Perceivers are characterized by their flexible, spontaneous approach to how they live their lives
      2. Take the time to discuss the issues your Perceivers are having in the office.
      3. If they feel like they aren’t getting a shot at leadership roles, inform them of upcoming leadership opportunities and what they can do to get them.
      4. If they are struggling with deadlines, consider starting a status update system to keep them on track. In the end, the extra work may lead to greater success and higher job satisfaction.
  2. Energy style impacts success and job satisfaction
    1. Extraverts
      1. Managers should encourage discussion and open communication between teammates to engage Extraverts, but be sure to focus the discussion on work issues and client challenges.
      2. Providing focused outlets for Extraverts to interact with other team members will allow them to recharge and keep productivity at high levels
    2. Introverts
      1. For Introverts, managers need to provide quiet spaces to work. Whether it’s an assigned “quiet work” conference room or offices where Introverts can shut the door to get some alone time, providing a quiet space for Introverts to retreat to when they are overwhelmed will increase their productivity and keep them from getting burned out
  3. Decision-making style affects employee satisfaction
    1. Thinkers
      1. Thinkers, who are more focused on outward signs of success (salary, title, etc.), tend to be less satisfied with their work.
      2. good managers will establish goals for Thinkers that relate to their metrics for success, but also challenge them to consider other measures of achievement in the office
    2. Feelers
      1. Feelers’ tendency to focus on jobs that match up with their personal values and affect others positively makes enjoying their work easier
      2. Rather than just telling Feelers “good job,” managers should find ways to show Feelers how their actions contribute to the company’s goals and reflect its values

Getting the most out of your team

Take a look at the personalities in your office and find creative ways to engage their different personality styles for success. After all, managing the different personalities in your office more efficiently, even though they are just the tip of the iceberg, can help build better team engagement, increase productivity, and result in more satisfied employees
