What changed in the Sales Tax Act, 1990 between the 2025-06-30 and 2026-06-30 versions

Between the version published 2025-06-30 and the one published 2026-06-30, 8 sections appeared for the first time.

Reading this in plain terms: a section appearing for the first time usually means a new provision was inserted. A section disappearing usually means it was omitted, though it can also have been moved under a new heading this comparison did not match. Treat this as a guide to what to check in the official text, not as proof.

2 other sections looked different at first but were found in both versions’ text, so the difference was in the PDF layout rather than the law. They are not listed.

New in this version

• section 11H: Faceless audit and assessment
• section 30AA: Faceless jurisdiction
• section 30DDDB: Directorate General (Field Compliance) Inland Revenue
• section 32C: National faceless centre
• section 40F: Sale of confiscated goods by auction
