Case Study
Before the Value Added Tax was imposed, the Maharashtra Sales Tax Department in India serviced over 2 million tax payers. It used manual processes to manage the transactions. Anticipating a significant increase in transaction volume in the VAT regime, the Maharashtra government decided to automate the collection and processing. Mastek built a web-based application to fully automate and streamline the tax collection process across 40 locations. On the one hand, the application enabled citizens to pay their tax over the Internet through a bilingual site, on the other it armed tax officials with the tools to monitor compliance and prevent tax evasion.
