In this regard, the proposed new return filing system , envisages quarterly filling of return and tax payment for small taxpayers along with minimum paperwork. In order to implement the new return filing systetn , and also to overcome the above difficulties , it is proposed to amend the Madhya Pradesh Goods and Services Tax Act ,2017

3. The proposed Madhya Pradesh Goods and Services Tax ( Amendment ) Bill, 2019 , inter alia, provides for the following, namely:-

(i) to amend section 7 of the Act to clarify the scope of supply;
