Some sections of industry have sought its deferral but the government is not keen to delay it any further.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Irrespective of the date on which it starts, some people will say they are not ready, so they have no option but to get ready,&#8221; Jaitley said.<\/p>\n<p>Adhia said industry had also begun stock planning so the levy can be rolled out as scheduled. &#8220;The transition rules have been made so relaxed that nobody will have any issue of stocking or destocking. So we don&#8217;t expect there will be any scarcity of any commodity in the market,&#8221; Adhia said.<\/p>\n<p>The council has agreed to allow additional verification facilities to enrol taxpayers on the GST Network including the one-time password and banking verification. \u00a0Some state finance ministers also want the rollout deferred.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have also added a caveat that July 1looks extremely difficult.
