- Goa Government notified the Goa Value Added Tax (Amendment) Act, 2026 to amend the 2005 VAT Act.
- The amendment strengthens the composition scheme, requiring eligible dealers with turnover below a prescribed limit to pay tax at a fixed rate, without input tax credit or tax invoices.
- Dealers must maintain separate accounts for multiple business classes, and turnover for eligibility excludes GST-covered goods.
- Settlement applications must be filed by June 30, 2026, with a ₹10,000 fee; late applications will not be accepted.
- Appeals against settlement orders can now be filed before the Tribunal.
