What is GST?
The Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a comprehensive indirect tax system implemented across India to bring uniformity and efficiency in taxation. Introduced in July 2017, GST replaced multiple central and state-level taxes such as VAT, Excise Duty, and Service Tax, creating a single, streamlined tax structure.
GST operates on a destination-based model, meaning the tax is collected where goods or services are consumed, not where they are produced. It is levied at every stage of the value chain, but businesses can claim input tax credit (ITC) for the tax already paid on purchases—eliminating the cascading “tax-on-tax” effect.
This mechanism encourages transparency, compliance, and smoother business operations across the nation.
