NSDL e-Governance begins GST Platform operations

NSDL e-Governance Infrastructure Ltd (NSDL e-Gov) has commenced operations for NSDLgst, its GST platform for providing ASP and GSP services. This is a comprehensive and secure platform, which enables traders, dealers, businesses, chartered accountants (CAs) and tax consultants to upload invoices, file returns and upload information in the prescribed format. The platform is built using latest technology, combined with simplicity and innovation.

This user-friendly platform can help large and medium businesses easily integrate their ERP and accounting solutions vide a variety of interfaces. Moreover, the cloud-based platform supports small businesses as it does not require installation of a separate IT infrastructure at the dealers end. Additionally, the platform has zero start-up time and will support an e-Sign facility, which is part of the base level service offerings. NSDLgst is one of the few platforms in the industry that offer the best security infrastructure and complete business continuity practices.

Managing Director and CEO Gagan Rai said, “We are excited to be a part of India’s biggest indirect tax reform. Over the past few months, we have been working closely with GSTN to update the features of the platform as per the latest rules and requirements. Standing by our commitment to help businesses become GST compliant, we aim to ensure that our clients’ journey is easy, quick and hassle-free.”

Since its launch in June, NSDLgst has witnessed tremendous success and more than 400 ASPs and their respective clients have already enrolled onto the platform. Dealers have already started uploading sales invoices into the system. Additionally, the company has also provided a special module for CAs and tax consultants to file GST returns for their clients.

Shakir Ladak, Chief Technology Officer and Founder, Alpha Insight, said, "We are tremendously excited by this agreement which allows us to benefit from HCL's expertise and client coverage, whilst fulfilling our vision to further expand iControl as a strategic operational intelligence platform."

Alpha Insight, founded in 2013, specializes in Business Flow Monitoring and Operational Intelligence with the primary focus on the financial services sector. The company’s existing industry expertise in financial services processes will now be expanded to other major industries such as retail, manufacturing, utilities and life sciences, among others.
