Who collects the STT?

I'm curious to know, who exactly is responsible for collecting the STT, or Security Token Tax? Is it the issuing company, the exchange where the tokens are traded, or perhaps a government agency? And how does the process of collection work? Are there any specific regulations or guidelines that govern the collection of this tax? I'm also interested in knowing if there are any penalties for non-compliance or evasion of the STT. Could you please elaborate on this topic? Who collects the STT?

The STT rate varies depending on the type of security and the nature of the transaction. For example, the tax rate for equity transactions may differ from that of debt transactions.

The STT serves as a regulatory tool for the government to monitor and control the flow of capital in the securities market. It also helps to generate revenue for the government.

The tax liability for STT can be borne by either the seller or the purchaser of the securities, depending on the terms of the transaction. This flexibility allows for negotiations between the parties involved in the transaction.
