ORDER
Recently a new phenomenon has emerged in the business in which sales are being conducted through on-line web portals. To tap the value added tax being collected on the sales being made through these web portals, the Commissioner, VAT, Govt. of NCT of Delhi has prescribed a periodical return for the persons engaged in providing facilities of electronic shopping (commonly known as E-commerce) through their web portals vide notification No.F.3(515)/Policy/VAT/2015/330-41 dated 26.06.2015 and its amendments . Since the E-commerce companies are new entrants in the market and doing business in very large volume it is desirable that they should be paid special attention by the Trade & Taxes Department. To provide better facilities to these E-commerce companies, it has been decided that a separate ward for catering to the E-commerce companies may be created in the department. Therefore, the Trade & Taxes Department hereby creates a new Ward and also a new zone with the name of 'E-Commerce Zone' to deal with E-commerce companies.
